Annotation:

Author: Joshua Lederberg. Date Written: August 17, 2002. KW: Class action suits, as another forum for reconciliation of class interests (consumers vs. industry/labor;) How to fund Consumers Union research, ensure information equity; I had not anticipated how class action would become vehicle for lawyerr enrichment; and how difficult reform would then be given a lwayer-ridden Congress; I don't know if organizations like NRDC have had any compensation in their suits for enforcement of NEPA; 8/17/02 NY Times had article on Susan Koniak paper in Harvard Journal of law and public policy, on a court in Madison Cty., IL, which seems to lean towards abusive lawyer enrichment; jl 8/17/02
