Chilean court returns Pakistani suspect to jail
Headline Legal News | 2010/05/22 09:08
A Chilean appeals court says a Pakistani man detained at the U.S. Embassy must go back to prison.

It's preventive detention for Mohammad Saif Ur Rehman Khan, who according to U.S. authorities and Chilean police was found with traces of explosives.

Khan says it all must be a misunderstanding, that he's a peaceful man and that he wants America to be safe and secure.

But the judges said Khan is a danger to security, society and the success of the probe. Now he must go back behind bars while Chilean prosecutors build their case.



Starbucks Sued over "Unreasonably" Hot Tea
Headline Legal News | 2010/05/17 09:02

Starbucks Corp has been sued by a customer who allegedly suffered second-degree burns after being served tea that was too hot.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff Zeynep Inanli was served tea that was "unreasonably hot, in containers which were not safe," at a Starbucks store at 685 Third Avenue in Manhattan.

As a result of Starbucks' negligence, the plaintiff suffered "great physical pain and mental anguish," including the burns, the complaint said.

The plaintiff seeks unspecified damages.

Starbucks, based in Seattle, did not immediately return requests for comment. The plaintiff's lawyer did not immediately return a call for comment.

Retailers periodically face lawsuits for serving beverages at temperatures that customers say are too high.

In one well-known case, a jury in 1994 ordered McDonald's Corp to pay $2.86 million to Stella Liebeck, an Albuquerque, New Mexico woman who claimed she scalded herself with the restaurant's coffee. The parties later settled.



Justice questions way court nominees are grilled
Headline Legal News | 2010/05/17 02:03
The man considered the Supreme Court's swing vote is questioning the way some senators may grill the woman nominated to share the bench with him.

In a speech in West Palm Beach on Friday, Justice Anthony Kennedy said lawmakers should not try to figure out how high court nominee Elena Kagan would rule on specific questions.

He said they should instead look at whether her temperament, commitment and character make her suitable for the job.

Kennedy declined to offer Kagan any advice. He joked that if you ask him what makes a good judge, "you're going to get an autobiography."

Kagan, the nation's solicitor general, was tapped by President Barack Obama to succeed retiring Justice John Paul Stevens.



P&G being sued over Pampers Dry Max diapers
Headline Legal News | 2010/05/14 09:09

Procter & Gamble Co is being sued by parents claiming new Pampers diapers have caused severe rashes and other skin conditions on their children, court documents showed, assertions the company has called "completely false."

The action, filed by the law firm of Keller Rohrback, comes on the heels of parents' complaints that updated Pampers Swaddlers and Cruisers diapers with P&G's new Dry Max technology appear to have caused rashes and burns on their children. A number of parents have voiced concern in Internet forums such as Facebook.

"While we have great empathy for any parent dealing with diaper rash - a common and sometimes severe condition - the claims made in this lawsuit are completely false," P&G said in a statement. "We have every confidence that we will prevail in this meritless lawsuit."

According to documents, the lawsuit wants the court to require P&G to ensure that Pampers will not cause severe rashes, blisters, welts, chemical burns and other skin ailments and to regularly test the product. It also wants parents to be reimbursed for the diapers and compensated for treatment of skin ailments in their children they say were caused by the diapers.

Last week, Pampers dismissed reports that the diapers were causing skin irritations after the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada said they were investigating the products.
