settlement of $177 million, says New York Injury Lawyers. County attorneys

than $3.5 million. One of the plaintiffs in the case was a former teacher arrested on an
unspecified charge in 1996. She testified that she was instructed by a female
correctional officer to remove all her clothing, while submitting to a search of her private
areas. It has already been established that the former inmates should not have been
invaded in such a manner, and now the federal judge presiding over the matter has to

The ex-boyfriend of a psychic to celebrities is suing his former lover for $14 million in the
Manhattan Supreme Court, claiming that she used his psychological financial weakness
against him. The claim states that the psychic persuaded the man to give her signatory
power regarding his bank accounts, and then drained him out of all of his money
according to New York Injury Lawyers. He, being a best-selling author by the
New York Times, also says that he was the one to launch her into a writing career,
taking her notes and compiling them into a book. He was able to get the advances she
needed for each of her books, which promoted her consulting as well. The suit alleges
that the psychic convinced the man to give her money he received in royalties on his
own writing, which came to approximately $350,000 annually, using his love for her
young son to compel him. The couple met in 1994 and quickly became romantically
involved. He stepped in as a father figure for her son who was two years old at the time.
The psychic was doing readings for some clients, according to a New York Injury Lawyer, but supposedly had very little income. She is therefore accused of taking
advantage of her relationship with the author and preying upon his inability to properly
manage his own finances to support herself. The psychic denies these allegations saying
her former boyfriend hasn't earned his own living in ten years, but was supported by
her.

The news director of a New York station reportedly asked employees which of the female
reporters was most attractive at a business dinner in 1997. Employees were asked which
they would most likely sleep with as well, reports a New York Injury Lawyer. All
the reporters were mentioned. This specific incident did not occur on company property
or company time. One particular anchor was singled out most by male colleagues on
other occasions as well, often referring to her as "BBB-Big Butt Booty". A picture of her
with her breasts altered to be much larger than they really are could be seen in various
places around the news station, as a former news assistant testified. The female anchor
had complained to Human Resources about issues with the station before, but the HR
director said none of the complaints were of a sexual nature. At least not until the
anchor accused a male reporter of trying to kiss her when he took her home after a
party. The HR director stated to New York Personal Injury Lawyers that the anchor
wanted to handle the situation without her help, despite feeling threatened by the man.
Further testimony resumes on this case in Brooklyn federal court. The lawsuit was filed
by only two of the female employees, the anchor and another reporter against the news
cable channel. It was not mentioned if the other reporter named as co-plaintiff in this
case was subject to any other harassment beyond the business dinner incident.

If you have been the victim of sexual harassment, bring your assailants to justice. Call a
