Santa Clara County Retains KBL to Sue GSK for Deceptive Marketing of its Drug Avandia
KBL has filed an advertising suit on behalf of the County of Santa Clara, for the benefit of all of the People of the State of California against GlaxoSmithKline ["Glaxo"] for its violation of California Business and Professions Code section 17500, et seq., for false advertising of the diabetes drug Avandia as being safe and effective.  The basis of the lawsuit is Glaxo's decade-long aggressive marketing strategy, combined with its concealing evidence regarding the increased cardiovascular risks associated with Avandia, resulting in billions of dollars of profits for Glaxo and an estimated 60,000 to 200,000 excess heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascular deaths in Avandia users between 1999 and 2006.  GSK had a duty to warn its patients and the FDA about the serious health risks associated with Avandia but chose to conceal that information in yet another example of a corporation putting its profits ahead of the safety of its customers.

    



    The Court Grants Final Approval to E*Trade Class Action Settlement


The Court HAS GRANTED FINAL APPROVAL of the E*Trade Privacy Class Action.  However, NO PAYMENTS can yet be made to any class members because TWO law firms filed "objections" to the settlement.  While Judge Kuhl overruled the objections, these attorneys have now filed Notices of Appeal.  Both of these firms routinely object to class actions settlements.  Until the objections are resolved either by way of appeal or otherwise NO payments can be made.  I regret this delay and will do all that can be done to expedite the ultimate distribution of the settlement funds.  Thank you all for your understanding and patience.

Raymond Boucher Travels to Uganda on behalf of Children Wrongly Incarcerated  
 
                                                                                   
Pepperdine Law Helps Accused Teens in Uganda  
        
By TAYLOR BIRD

Dirty, stale air filled their lungs as soon as they entered the facility. Through the darkness, they could make out the forms of 18 African teenaged boys, who were perplexed by the sudden presence of a half-dozen white men, wearing suits and holding cameras.

This was an unusual sight at this remand home, a detention center for Ugandan minors who had been accused of crimes and were waiting for their cases to be heard in court.

Nearby, three teenaged girls were locked in a smaller concrete building. These 21 children had lived there, some for up to two years, sleeping on mats made of reeds and trying to survive with limited food and water.
 




Child Sexual Abuse              

Extraordinary Documents Released from Catholic Church Secret Files Contradict Claims of Bishops that the Church was Unaware Until recently that Child Molesting Priests Could Not be Rehabilitated and Returned to Ministry.

The founder of a Roman Catholic religious order that ran retreat centers for troubled priests warned American bishops in forceful letters dating back to 1952 that pedophiles should be removed from the priesthood because they could not be cured.
