MULTI DISTRICT LITIGATION and MASS TORTS are an attorney's dream. It may take millions of dollars to prosecute but with thousands and thousands of injured plaintiffs in the pools, the Return on Investment is spectacular.
Defense Attorneys have boiler plate defenses they have honed over the years. They fight tooth and nail and DON'T PAY until the absolute end of the presiding judge's patience.
CONFIDENTIALITY REIGNS!
No INJURED PLAINTIFF will ever know what happens as the years drag by, their medical needs grow, they lose their jobs, their homes, their families, their friends. They lose EVERYTHING!
So the giant money making MULTI DISTRICT LITIGATION MACHINE grinds on, protecting the profits of the companies, the jobs of the doctors and the multimillion dollar incomes of ALL the attorneys, plaintiff and defense.
MASS TORTS ARE NOT MADE PERFECT FOR THE INJURED PLAINTIFFS!

BAD LAWS, BAD DRUGS, BAD DEVICES & GREED. SO WHO WILL BE THE NEXT PROMINENT CLASS ACTION ATTORNEY LIKE STANLEY CHESLEY DISBARRED FOR SKIMMING A SETTLEMENT FUND?
FOUR HUNDRED (400) PLAINTIFFS GOT $46 MILLION DOLLARS.
ONE (1) ATTORNEY, STANLEY CHESLEY GOT PAID $20 MILLION DOLLARS FOR HIS INVOLVEMENT IN THE SETTLEMENT NEGOTIATIONS ONLY...HE DID NOT EVEN APPEAR AT TRIAL. HE LOST HIS LICENSE TO PRACTICE LAW BUT DID NOT HAVE TO REPAY THE MONEY.
THE PATIENTS WERE PAWNS IN THIS CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT WHERE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS WERE PAID IN CONFIDENTIAL SETTLEMENTS AND EVEN THE JUDGE COLLUDED WITH THE ATTORNEYS.
HOW DO PATIENTS KNOW THEY ARE RECEIVING THEIR FAIR SHARE OF SETTLEMENTS IN CLASS ACTIONS AND MASS TORTS? ANSWER: THEY DON'T.
JUST LIKE HEALTHCARE, PATIENTS WHO BECOME PLAINTIFFS ARE IN THE DARK WITH LITTLE OR NO INFLUENCE OVER A MAJOR LIFE ALTERING EVENT.
WE CAN ONLY HOPE THERE ARE NOT ANY "STANLEY CHESLEYS" IN THE ONGOING HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN THE TRANSVAGINAL MESH SETTLEMENTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY! BUT DON'T COUNT ON IT. WITH ETHICON & WELLS FARGO IN THE MIX THERE ARE BOUND TO BE SOME NEW "CRASHES & BURNS".

"STANLEY CHESLEY, TITAN OF THE PLAINTIFF'S BAR, CRASHES AND BURNS"
The big-time plaintiffs’ bar justifies its multimillion-dollar fees by claiming to vindicate the “little guy.” Justice ain’t free, according to free-wheeling trial lawyers, and taking on (alleged) corporate villains requires heavy pecuniary incentives.
Sadly, the titans of this elite segment of the bar have a tendency to flame out in spectacular bursts of greed and deceit, undercutting their claims of righteous dedication. The latest example is famed class-action attorney Stanley Chesley of Cincinnati, for decades one of the leading scourges of industries that range from pharmaceuticals, to chemicals, to firearms.
The Kentucky Supreme Court on March 21 upheld Chesley’s disbarment in that state for “unreasonable” fees received in the settlement of a class action originally filed in 1999 against Wyeth, now part of Pfizer. The allegation stemmed from $20 million in fees Chesley received for his involvement in an action concerning the diet drug known as fen-phen (fenfluramine/phentermine), which was shown to cause harmful side effects. The case was settled in 2001 for $200 million.
Under Ohio’s Rules of Professional Responsibility for lawyers, the disbarment in Kentucky may provide grounds for Chesley to get drummed out of the legal trade in his home state, as well.
Here’s a helpful description of Chesley’s troubles from Bloomberg News:
“In 2009, two Kentucky lawyers involved in the case were sentenced to 20 years and 25 years in prison for stealing from the [diet drug] settlement fund. The lawyers had contracts entitling them to fees of as much as one-third of the $200 million awarded to a statewide group of Kentucky citizens who said they were harmed by diet drug. The lawyers tried to keep more than twice that amount, prosecutors said.
In its 38-page decision, the Kentucky Supreme Court noted that Chesley didn’t meet directly with any of the clients to effectuate the settlement, and it wasn’t shown that he had specific knowledge of the deception practiced on each client to secure the signed release.
The court did find that his “$20,497,121.87 share of the fee was unreasonable, especially in light of his professed ignorance and lack of responsibility for any aspect of the litigation except showing up at the mediation and going through the motions of announcing the agreement.”
BE SURE TO READ THE WHOLE STORY AT BLOOMBERG...IT'S WAY TOO JUICY TO MISS!
FROM MY PERSPECTIVE AS A PATIENT, A PATIENT ADVOCATE AND A LEGAL CONSULTANT, THIS IS A MESS CREATED BY BAD LAWS, BAD DRUGS AND DEVICES AND GREED. IT IS A SYSTEMIC ISSUE CREATED BY THE AMERICAN HEALTHCARE SYSTEM WHICH DOES NOT PROTECT PATIENTS.
MY ADVICE: STAY WELL, STAY OUT OF THE HOSPITAL AND DON'T TAKE DRUGS UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. YOU MAY BE UNKNOWINGLY HARMING YOURSELF!
BEST, BLESSINGS, LANA

STATE FARM MUTUAL AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE COMPANY: LIES? MEDICAL IGNORANCE? INCOMPETENCE? FRAUD? #GOODNEIGHBOR GONE BAD? YOU DECIDE...@STATEFARM
Defendant State Farm and its’ in house attorneys Mr. Russell Karr and Mr. Ayenn Stark and its’ expert neurologist Dr. Julie Schwartzbard have a perverse interest in Plaintiff’s bladder, vagina and uterus. They continue to diligently search Plaintiff’s gynecological medical records from the last 15 years for the cause of Plaintiff’s migraine headaches. Plaintiff’s chronic migraine headaches have not been diagnosed as post gynecologic.
Dr. Ralph Sacco, Chairman & Professor Department of Neurology, Executive Director Evelyn F McKnight Brain Institute, Miller Professor of Epidemiology, Public Health Sciences, Human Genetics, and Neurosurgery, Olemberg Family Chair in Neurological Disorders diagnoses Plaintiff’s chronic migraine headaches as post concussive.
Dr. Hong Jiang, Neuro-Opthalomogist at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, diagnoses Plaintiff’s chronic migraine headaches as post traumatic.
Neither Dr. Sacco nor Dr. Jiang diagnosed Plaintiff’s chronic head pain as post stroke.
Entering into a first party auto insurance policy with the intention not to pay is fraud. Policy holder Lana Keeton’s State Farm Uninsured Motorist provision for $300,000.00 remains unpaid. Every day State Farm and its employees, Attorney Russell Karr and Attorney Ayenn C. Stark, do not pay Plaintiff is another day State Farm defrauds Plaintiff.
It is clear these lawyers are completely outside the bounds of civil procedure and should be found in contempt of court for 2 reasons:
1. They did not comply with the Honorable Court’s ruling November 18, 2015 to produce discovery on November 23, 2015. Defendants did not produce the following:
a. Exhibits to Defendant’s Response to Plaintiff’s Motion to Strike and/or Exclude Testimony of Dr. Warren Grossman
b. The legal citations of all cases listed where Dr. Warren Grossman has testified and/or been deposed
c. The legal citations of all cases listed where Dr. Julie Schwartzbard has testified and/or been deposed and
d. The records subpoenaed in 2012 by State Farm of Dr. Eric Lampinstein.
e. The complete State Farm file on December 24, 2009 auto accident including repair estimates, payments for, photos of auto, etc
2. State Farm illegally obtained Plaintiff’s medical records:
a. without authorization and without notification and without consent
b. State Farm solicited and publicized un-redacted photos of pubic surgical scars of Plaintiff onto the court docket and into the public record.
Plaintiff moves the Court to find State Farm and any and all of its employees involved in these actions in contempt and for State Farm to pay monetary sanctions for the duress and public humiliation caused to Plaintiff by these actions.

Re: Case No. 11-36542-CA-06 Lana Keeton v. State Farm Automobile Insurance Company
11th Circuit Court, Miami-Dade, County
Dear Mr. Karr,
I have not read your typical 100+ page motion practice abuse answer, you yourself personally filed today at 3:15 p.m., to Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel discovery but it seems to be standard Corporate Culture and Practice of State Farm’s ACE “Achieving Claims Excellence” policy or the PP&R scheme of State Farm Mutual Auto Insurance Company. State Farm and its Corporate Tactics through your actions are no longer invisible to the public as they were years ago before the age of the internet. Your actions are unconscionable.
“These tactics are an entrenched part of the company’s approach to dealing with liability lawsuits by “harass[ing] and intimidat[ing] opposing claimants, witnesses, and attorneys.” Pet. App. 19a. The company uses its size and wealth to carry out these policies. Id. (“State Farm actually instructs its attorneys and claim superintendents to employ ‘mad dog defense tactics’ – using the company’s large resources to ‘wear out’ opposing attorneys by prolonging litigation, making meritless objections, claiming false privileges, destroying documents, and abusing the law and motion process.”). In all, “State Farm repeatedly and deliberately deceived and cheated its customers via the PP&R scheme.” Id. 18a.
No. 01-1289 IN THE Supreme Court of the United States State Farm Mutual Auto Ins. Co., Petitioner, v. Curtis B. Campbell, et al., Respondents.” October 17, 2002
“201. State Farm knowingly manipulated its data, documents, procedures, claims adjusters, engineers, and engineering firms to produce results that minimized and understated both Katrina wind damage and State Farm’s liability for that damage under homeowner policies it issued to policyholders in Mississippi. “Mississippi Complaint” P. 40-41”
Mississippi ex.rel. Jim Hood, Attorney General for the State of Mississippi, Plaintiff, v. State Farm Fire and Casualty Company, Defendant. Case No. 25C11:15-cv-00221-TTG April 21, 2015
Regardless of orders you may have from your superiors at State Farm, it seems your actions as an officer of the court have reached a point where you, and possibly your firm, are preventing “due administration of justice” in violation of 18 U.S.C. 371 and 18 U.S.C. 1503:
United States of America, Plaintiff, -against- Richard A. Lundwall and Robert W. Ulrich, Defendants. 97 Cr. 0211 (BDP)
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK 1 F. Supp. 2d 249; 1998 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 4466
“The words 'due administration of justice' import a free and fair opportunity to every litigant in a pending cause in federal court to learn what he may learn (if not impeded or obstructed) concerning the material facts and to exercise his option as to introducing testimony or such facts. The violation of the law may consist in preventing a litigant from learning facts which he might otherwise learn, and in thus preventing him from deciding for himself whether or not to make use of such facts.”
“Richard A. Lundwall and Robert W. Ulrich, two former officials of Texaco, Inc., are charged in a two count Superceding Indictment with conspiring to obstruct justice in violation of 18 U.S.C. 371 and with obstruction of justice in violation of 18 U.S.C. 1503. They move to dismiss on the ground that 1503 does not apply to civil discovery matters. Since we conclude that 1503 reaches the willful destruction of documents during civil litigation, defendants' motion is denied
“Next, defendants argue that the Indictment violates due process because it amounts to a retroactive extension of the law, and deprives them of "fair warning" that their conduct was criminal. A statute gives no "fair warning" if it "fails to give a person of ordinary intelligence fair notice that his contemplated conduct is forbidden by the statute." Papachristou v. City of Jacksonville, 405 U.S. 156, 162, 31 L. Ed. 2d 110, 92 S. Ct. 839 (1972) (quoting United States v. Harriss, 347 U.S. 612, 617, 98 L. Ed. 989, 74 S. Ct. 808 (1954)). In this case, however, defendants' conduct falls well within the unambiguous text of 1503 and consequently gave the defendants ample warning that their conduct was prohibited. See United States v. Howard, 569 F.2d 1331, 1336-37 (5th Cir. 1978) ("Since the omnibus clause of the statute quite clearly proclaims that all obstructions of justice are prohibited, we conclude that section 1503 gives 'fair notice' of the offending conduct") (citations omitted).”
The Campbell case is from 2002 but the State of Mississippi “Katrina Fraud” case is April of 2015 for losses to the State of Mississippi for almost $500 million dollars, not to mention State Farm policy holders losses. Your “mad dog defense tactics” are without doubt Bad Faith.

Regardless of orders you may have from your superiors at State Farm, it seems your actions as an officer of the court have reached a point where you, and possibly your firm, are preventing “due administration of justice” in violation of 18 U.S.C. 371 and 18 U.S.C. 1503:
United States of America, Plaintiff, -against- Richard A. Lundwall and Robert W. Ulrich, Defendants. 97 Cr. 0211 (BDP)
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK 1 F. Supp. 2d 249; 1998 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 4466
“The words 'due administration of justice' import a free and fair opportunity to every litigant in a pending cause in federal court to learn what he may learn (if not impeded or obstructed) concerning the material facts and to exercise his option as to introducing testimony or such facts. The violation of the law may consist in preventing a litigant from learning facts which he might otherwise learn, and in thus preventing him from deciding for himself whether or not to make use of such facts.”
“Richard A. Lundwall and Robert W. Ulrich, two former officials of Texaco, Inc., are charged in a two count Superceding Indictment with conspiring to obstruct justice in violation of 18 U.S.C. 371 and with obstruction of justice in violation of 18 U.S.C. 1503. They move to dismiss on the ground that 1503 does not apply to civil discovery matters. Since we conclude that 1503 reaches the willful destruction of documents during civil litigation, defendants' motion is denied
“Next, defendants argue that the Indictment violates due process because it amounts to a retroactive extension of the law, and deprives them of "fair warning" that their conduct was criminal. A statute gives no "fair warning" if it "fails to give a person of ordinary intelligence fair notice that his contemplated conduct is forbidden by the statute." Papachristou v. City of Jacksonville, 405 U.S. 156, 162, 31 L. Ed. 2d 110, 92 S. Ct. 839 (1972) (quoting United States v. Harriss, 347 U.S. 612, 617, 98 L. Ed. 989, 74 S. Ct. 808 (1954)). In this case, however, defendants' conduct falls well within the unambiguous text of 1503 and consequently gave the defendants ample warning that their conduct was prohibited. See United States v. Howard, 569 F.2d 1331, 1336-37 (5th Cir. 1978) ("Since the omnibus clause of the statute quite clearly proclaims that all obstructions of justice are prohibited, we conclude that section 1503 gives 'fair notice' of the offending conduct") (citations omitted).”
The Campbell case is from 2002 but the State of Mississippi “Katrina Fraud” case is April of 2015 for losses to the State of Mississippi for almost $500 million dollars, not to mention State Farm policy holders losses. Your “mad dog defense tactics” are without doubt Bad Faith.
