Utah high court to hear posthumous benefits case

(Click The Law) — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 09:55:38 -0800

Utah's Supreme Court is deciding whether a sperm donor contract is proof that a man wanted to be a father, even after his death.

The question stems from a dispute between Gayle Burns and the Social Security Administration, which denied survivor benefits to the son Burns conceived after her husband died from cancer.

Oral arguments are set Tuesday in Salt Lake City.

Michael Burns had contracted with medical providers to preserve his sperm before he died of cancer in 2001. Gayle Burns became pregnant in 2003.

Social Security denied a 2005 benefits petition, saying federal law doesn't allow for payments to posthumously-conceived children.

Gayle Burns challenged the ruling in Utah's federal court.

A federal judge asked Utah's Supreme Court to address the issue first.

Eugene, Oregon Stalking Order Attorneys

(Click The Law) — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 09:55:22 -0800

Our lawyers here in Oregon have seen real world example of clients' lives being extremely affected by erroneous stalking order petitions. And in our experience working in the field, most stalking order cases usually do not have a trial and are dismissed beforehand. Most people who file false stalking orders do it on poor advice from their friends, family, and lawyers with little to no experience in these cases.

Although dismissing a case is a satisfying result, it is still unacceptable that courts are receiving and granting these orders to begin with. The whole process must use taxpayer's money and takes time to sort out these issues. Petitioners filing a stalking order simply because they want to avoid contacting an ex-suitor should not take such aggressive approach to discourage having their ex-suitor contacting them. These stalking orders should be saved for real situations in which you may be harmed by domestic violence abusers.

Our lawyers here believe your life shouldn't be risked and ruined by a stalking protective order. We understand what a hassle a stalking order defense can have on people. We have experience in this field and have successful outcomes to show for it.

Izard Nobel LLP Announces Class Action

(Click The Law) — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 09:42:51 -0800

The law firm of Izard Nobel LLP, which has significant experience representing investors in prosecuting claims of securities fraud, announces that a lawsuit seeking class action status has been filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York on behalf of purchasers of the common stock of Cablevision Systems Corporation between February 16, 2011 and October 28, 2011, inclusive (the "Class Period").

The Complaint alleges that Cablevision and certain of its officers and directors violated the federal securities laws. Specifically, defendants failed to disclose the following adverse facts: (i) that Cablevision was experiencing higher retention and advertising costs; (ii) that Cablevision was losing more video customers than expected, especially in the New York area -- the Company's main service area -- due to increased competition; and (iii) as a result of the foregoing, defendants lacked a reasonable basis for their positive statements about the Company and its prospects.

On October 28, 2011, Cablevision announced its financial results for the third quarter of 2011, the period ended September 30, 2011. On that same day, Cablevision held a conference call with analysts and investors to discuss the earnings announcement and the Company's operations, including the Company's subscriber loss. In reaction to the Company's announcement, the price of Cablevision stock fell $2.17 per share, or 13%, to close at $15.14 per share.
