Mississippi Finally Makes Headway In Asbestos Litigation
 

Since I'm in asbestos defense, I thought this article was interesting. MS is tired of being the dumping grounds of asbestos claims.

*NOTE* I'm in no way inferring that serious, legit claims are not litigated.

Mississippi Justice Overturns Judge's Order in Asbestos Injury Lawsuit
AP reports that Mississippi Supreme Court Justice, George C. Carlson Jr, has ordered plaintiffs in an asbestos injury lawsuit to justify why their cases should be heard in Jones County, Mississippi. This overturns an order by Circuit Judge Billy Joe Landrum where by 115 plaintiffs would be grouped together.

Carlson said the plaintiffs must provide the defendants with information on who each plaintiff sued and why. That information should also include when the plaintiff was exposed and the work site where the exposure occurred.

OMG - I worked on the Ingalls shipyard stuff in law school - like 91 :eek:

are you ****ting me? that's is our most serious worksite, next to Masonite and a couple others.

Where did you go to law school?

Loyola in New Orleans.

what kind of law are you practicing?

We were paying some claims then, but is was for concrete cases of certain types of lung lesions most of which were cancer. I worked for a firm called Adams and Reese.

I work with Adams and Reese all the time. Claims managment is so complex. I deal with the actual litigation and over see some settlement issues as well, dealing with the insurance carriers and 3rd party resolution companies...i.e., pain in the ass.

I was going to laugh if you said University of Michigan Law...because that is where Ann went!

Her legal analysis is not that bad, it is her asinine other stuff. I mean this whole the Legislature should pass it is crap and this country has never run that way ever since Marbury v. Madison and she knows that. Moreover, she picks and chooses when to apply strict interpretaion of the Const. in that the Second Amend. does not give individual US citizens the right to carry any kind of gun they want - it gives that right within a well organized militia. yet, sentence structure flies out the door with that one :shrug: Also, she did not mind the judically created EP and DP arguments getting W in the White House. So, she is a hypocrite.

If the second amend. were twisted around like liberals have twisted the first, we could legally buy shotguns at the local stop-and-shop!

She is a BRILLIANT legal mind! But she hated being lawyer. She tells anyone who wants to go to law school to....NOT DO IT unless they feel that must!

The constitution is a short document and doesn't govern every aspect of our lives. But liberals always turn to the courts to get what they want when they can't get it the democratic way.

Actually, you are wrong http://www.uexpress.com/anncoulter/?..._date=19990901

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

You mean like W in the 2000 election :rolleyes: But, I suppose that was okay because you are a hypocrite in that context.

Your point?



I don't think I saw your school listed as one of the top law schools in USA! Oops...:xoxo: :lol:

I'm talking about abortion, gay marriage, etc...

We have turned into some twisted land ruled by the courts and not governed by the people!

THE LESS GOVERNMENT THE BETTER! PLEASE!

So, let's take the govt. out of the equation totally. Let's have the marriage never mentioned in any law - same with abortion. I mean if autonomy is the goal - there is the solution. Or, do you really mean Christian autonomy?

No but one of my scholarships was a national meriot based one was and I have worked for two of the largest firms in the Southeast (Adams and Reese and Alston and Bird) - I am also published in legal periodicals. So, nice try rube.

But your missing the point! None of these issues would ever, or never have, passed the democratic way...which is to vote! This is how issues such as these should be decided...not by the courts, as liberals would have it.

I was just f*cking with you! :thumbsup:

So, balck people should be in the back of the bus still because there is no way in hell that would have past without Rosa Parks' surrounding litigation.

Moreover, do you not agree that the govt. has no business in marriage of any form? If not, why - and please list other than Christian reasons.

SQUEAL! Did you know Susannah Stroud at Alston?

LOL - that was like ten years ago and no :laugh:

dang :(

I know, I get so excited sometimes...so, spank me...ha!

Strandie would beat your ass to a pulp in a courtroom. He's one of the most quick witted, intelligent people I've ever met.

I didn't say he couldn't. I didn't go to law school and don't plan on going. I'm simply a paralegal dear.

However ANN could kick his ass in a court room! :wavey:

back to the topic, is anyone familiar with asbestos litigation...is it as popular in your state as it is here?

I would literally kick her's if I thought it would not spear if not sever my foot :laugh:

and thank you Goldie :angel: :angel:

Violence towards women...I see!

Angry much!? :lol:

That was just plain rude. That defense is getting really old, BTW.

She needs a vulva to be a woman. Oh Well, maybe her cakeboy new "boyfriend" can tickle her prostate like he tickles his :laugh:

Sorry Jason, didn't mean to threadjack. We don't seem to have had as much asbestos here as in the south/east.

:lol:

If you have learned anything about me dear, you should know that I don't mind a little invective every now and then! And the same could be said for just about every other ledgie. He didn't get all huffy, so why are you?

And this detracts from the "violence towards women" how? :lol:

That is mostly because of the shipyards down here. Also, asbestos is really effective and, if undisturbed, not really that bad for you. It is when you have to remove it or had to aplly it. But, there are far better things now on the market.

She is not a woman - you, however and in celebration of your newfound gayness, now sit to pee :wavey:

And this detracts from the "violence towards women" how?

Who added to it? What's your point? Did you remember to check if the seat was down before sitting?

And this detracts from YOUR "violence towards women" how?

What woman was I violent toward - other than you in a sense because you sit to pee like one - and that was just a verbal assault from which you are still scathed?

Brandon, you always get people riled up in here. Oh well, not everyone gonna like u or anyone else for that matter.
