il 09/09/2013 @ 19:19 | The views expressed are his own. The most electrifying event of the year,???, for me, was the Egyptian revolution. I?d long had an interest in Gandhian-style struggles. Here was a nonviolent struggle unfolding in real-time against Hosni Mubarak?s repressive regime. Tens of millions of people were gaining their freedom.The media coverage of the events in Tahrir Square focused on the Facebook revolution. But when I went to Cairo shortly after, I discovered that the use of social media was only part of the reason why the dictator had been toppled. Behind the protests was a cadre of activists who had been trained in the techniques of nonviolent struggle. This realization was a eureka moment. If it was possible to overthrow dictators with comparatively little bloodshed ? less than a thousand died in Egypt?s revolution — many millions more elsewhere might be able to gain their freedom given proper planning and training.2011 was a banner year for nonviolent struggle. Not only did it witness the successful Arab Spring revolutions against dictators in Egypt, Tunisia and Yemen; it also saw three Arab kings ? in Morocco,Coach ?????, Jordan and Kuwait — liberalize their political systems to head off similar protests. And the brave people of Syria went out on the streets again and again,DONCLARK, despite being arrested,SWISSMILITARY, tortured and killed in their thousands.Further afield, the Burmese regime started to reach an accommodation with pro-democracy activist,CASIO, Aung San Suu Kyi, after two decades of nonviolent opposition; China experienced increasing stirrings of protest,PIERRE CARDIN, for example when citizens posted nude photos of themselves on the internet after the authorities ruled that a photo of Ai Weiwei,SWATCH, the dissident artist,?????????????????????, was pornographic; and even Vladimir Putin had to face demonstrations after seemingly widespread vote-rigging in Russia?s parliamentary elections.The techniques of nonviolent struggle have also been used for purposes other than bringing down dictatorships. A man called Anna Hazare led a successful campaign against corruption in India. Meanwhile,???, the West had to contend with the Indignant anti-austerity movements in Spain,FUJIFILM, Greece and Italy as well as the anti-banker Occupy movements in the United States and Britain.Related-articles:

il 09/09/2013 @ 19:18 | In litigation,?????? ???????????? ????`???å?, as in life, there’s usually no better strategy for catching the attention of rulemakers than to tattle on subordinates for ignoring their directives. That was clearly the thinking of lawyers for a group of magazine publishers who wanted the U.S. Supreme Court to review a 2012 ruling by the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals that??case against them. The publishers’??claimed that the 2nd Circuit opinion undermined the high court’s holdings in??and??– the??recent Supreme Court decisions that made it easier for defendants to win the dismissal of plaintiffs’ complaints. The publishers called on the justices to use the opportunity of the 2nd Circuit decision, captioned Anderson News v. American Media, to reiterate their intentions in Twombly and Iqbal (known slangily as Twiqbal).On Monday, the Supreme Court refused to take the bait and denied the cert petition. That leaves the publishers’ brief to serve the perverse purpose of explaining to antitrust plaintiffs (and, for that matter,FREESTYLE, plaintiffs in all sort of other cases) exactly how the 2nd Circuit’s Anderson decision permits them to get past dismissal motions premised on Twombly and Iqbal. (The brief even includes a handy rundown on trial judges outside of the 2nd Circuit who have cited the Anderson case when they refused to toss antitrust complaints.) The justices may, of course, decide later on to revisit circuit court interpretations of Twiqbal, but for now the cert denial is undoubtedly good news for plaintiffs.In the underlying case, the magazine wholesaler Anderson News c laimed that it was driven out of business when publishers conspired to resist its attempt to impose new per-magazine and inventory surcharges on them. U.S. District Judge?Paul Crotty?tossed the complaint,CHRISTIAN GEORGES, finding that Anderson hadn’t met the Twombly standard of creating a plausible inference of collusion, since there were alternative and legitimate business reasons for each publisher independently to decide not to pay the new charges. But in April 2012, the 2nd Circuit vacated Crotty’s decision.Specifically, the 2nd Circuit held that antitrust plaintiffs do not have to show at the pleading stage that their allegations are “more likely than not” to be true nor that there is no other plausible, legal explanation for defendants’ actions. As long as the complaint offers specific, factual allegations of collusion, the appeals court said, it should not be dismissed by the trial judge. “The choice between two plausible inferences that may be drawn from factual allegations is not a choice to be made by the court on a (defense dismissal) motion,” wrote Judge Amalya Kearse for the panel. “A court ruling on such a motion may not properly dismiss a complaint that states a plausible version of the events merely because the court finds a different version more plausible.”According to the publishers’ cert petition, the 2nd Circuit’s formulation “cannot be reconciled with the precedent” of the Supreme Court. “The central teaching of Twombly is that when allegations of circumstantial facts raise two competing inferences — one unlawful and one benign — the court must weigh the competing inferences to judge whether the inference of unlawful conduct is more likely,” the brief said. “The 2nd Circuit’s holding — that,?????? ???????, when considering a motion to dismiss,IZAX VALENTINO, a district court cannot compare the likelihood of an inference of unlawful behavior with that of lawful activity — contradicts this court’s standard under Twombly and Iqbal.” (The publishers also claimed that the 2nd Circuit standard was at odds with the 3rd Circuit’s holding in?, which upheld the dismissal of a price-fixing and antitrust conspiracy case.)As you might expect,????????????, Anderson’s lawyers at?Kellogg, Huber, Hansen,???, Todd, Evans & Figel?and,SYULLA?Kasowitz, Benson,????, Torres & Friedman?argued in their??that the 2nd Circuit decision was in line with Supreme Court precedent and rulings by other federal circuits. Since the Supreme Court doesn’t explain cert denials,??? ??, we don’t know whether the justices agreed. But we do know that Anderson has already been a??in the e-books litigation in Manhattan federal court, as well as in the other cases cited by the publishers in their cert petition. As long as the ruling remains intact, you can expect to see it propping up plaintiffs’ cases.The publishers were represented by, among other firms,?Dechert; Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher; Troutman Sanders; and?Jones Day. I left message with lawyers at Dechert and Gibson, as well as with Anderson counsel at?Kellogg Huber, but didn’t hear back.For more of my posts, please go to?Related-articles:

il 09/09/2013 @ 19:18 | In the next day or two, W. Mark Lanier of the Lanier Law Firm will file a letter with Dallas federal judge Ed Kinkeade outlining the reasons why he should lead what Lanier believes will become a huge mass tort: the multidistrict litigation over DePuy’s Pinnacle hip replacements. More than 300 personal injury suits accusing the Johnson & Johnson unit of failing to warn patients about design defects in the best-selling product have been filed in federal courts around the country and consolidated before Judge Kinkeade. Lanier made a preemptive play to take charge of the MDL, proposing that he and a handful of other well-known mass tort veterans head up a broadly inclusive plaintiffs steering committee. But instead,SleeptrackerPROELITE, in an order, Judge Kinkeade threw open the leadership contest with a call for plaintiffs firms to respond to a long list of questions about their experience in big cases.“It’s an interesting situation,” Lanier told me. “You’ve got the usual crew of mass tort lawyers who’ve done this rodeo time and time again. And then you’ve got a new crew of Dallas lawyers who are looking to be in leadership roles because they know the judge, know the Dallas system.”Lanier’,BURBERRY;s allies include Edward Blizzard of Blizzard McCarthy & Nabers; Richard Arsenault of Neblett Beard & Arsenault; Kenneth Seeger of Seeger Salvas,SECTOR; and Paul Hanly of Hanly Conroy Bierstein Sheridan Fisher &,?????; Hayes. Blizzard told me that coalition is holding together,Coach ??????, “but what I took from Judge Kinkeade is that he’s going to make his own decision.” The judge, who has never before presided over an MDL, has said he may even interview candidates to lead the case.Notably absent from the contenders’ ranks is Ellen Relkin of Weitz & Luxenberg – but that’s because she’s already co-lead counsel in the other DePuy hip replacement MDL. Yes, that’s right: the Pinnacle litigation is a younger brother to the year-old MDL over DePuy’s ASR hip replacement. Johnson & Johnson recalled the ASR implants a year ago, and that MDL already includes more than 2,000 cases. Relkin and her co-lead counsel, Steven Skikos of Skikos Crawford Skikos & Joseph, previously led the Ortho Evra birth control MDL before the Cleveland federal judge who’s overseeing the ASR case, David Katz. Judge Katz picked Relkin and Skikos from among dozens of plaintiffs lawyers who filed applications.The big question, according to Lanier, Relkin, and Blizzard, is how the two DePuy hip replacement MDLs will differ. Obviously, they involve different products,??????, only one of which was recalled. J&J has been proactive about complaints by patients with ASR hip replacements. As earlier this week,WENGER, the company reached out to doctors who used the ASR products and, in a controversial move,PENTAX, brought in a consultant, Broadspire Services, to administer patient claims for replacement surgery. (Ed Blizzard calls Broadspire, a health insurance management company,????? ????????, “a spy for J&J.”)All ASR implants have a metal-on-metal hip-in-socket design, which is the source of the problems plaintiffs allege. (The basis assertion is that when the two metal pieces rub against one another, they create metallic residue that causes debilitating local irritation and, possibly, systemic metal poisoning.) Some Pinnacle products, on the other hand, have polyethylene or ceramic liners between the metal parts. That means, according to Relkin, that there’s a known universe of potential ASR plaintiffs — about 34,000 in the U.S. — but not of potential Pinnacle plaintiffs because it’s not clear how many Pinnacle implants are metal-on-metal. (Relkin’s firm, Weitz & Luxenberg, is involved in both MDLs.) Lanier is convinced Pinnacle claims will eventually outpace ASR claims because DePuy sold many more Pinnacle implants; Blizzard said ASR will be the bigger MDL.All three plaintiffs lawyers told me J&J will eventually have to settle the ASR cases, considering that the company recalled the product and has already begun paying for replacement surgery through Broadspire. Relkin and Lanier said, however, that J&J seems to be gearing up for a real fight over the Pinnacle, which is still on the market. The company’s lead counsel in the ASR MDL is Drinker Biddle & Reath and Tucker Ellis & West; in the Pinnacle MDL it’s Skadden, Arps, Slate,?????, Meagher & Flom.“Skadden and John Beisner are known to fight to the death,” Lanier said. “Bringing them in was an overt gun-shot blast. The hard part of leadership in the case is that [plaintiffs lawyers] generally compete against each other. So how do you get a group to coordinate to go up against Skadden Arps?”I left messages with lawyers at Drinker Biddle; Tucker El |
