November 7, 2011	Filing 75 ORDER: Since October 31, 2011, the court has been inundated with no less than ten letters from counsel for various parties in these two consolidated cases. Ms. Jan Cowles is seeking a court ruling that, in event of a settlement, she will not be precluded from asserting unrelated claims in an as yet unfiled, future lawsuit. The short answer to this request is that Ms. Cowles seeks an advisory ruling, and we are precluded from offering such relief. We observe that, imbedded in some of the letters to the court, are accusations by counsel for Safflane of misconduct on the part of Ms. Cowles's attorney. We have had occasion before to remark on the unfortunate tendency of counsel to litigate by ad hominem attack, but in any event he proffers no meaningful basis to infer misconduct by his adversary, much less offers a reason for the court to undertake satellite hearings to examine any lawyer's performance of his ethical obligations in these contentious lawsuits.

November 7, 2011

Filing 75 ORDER: Since October 31, 2011, the court has been inundated with no less than ten letters from counsel for various parties in these two consolidated cases. Ms. Jan Cowles is seeking a court ruling that, in event of a settlement, she will not be precluded from asserting unrelated claims in an as yet unfiled, future lawsuit. The short answer to this request is that Ms. Cowles seeks an advisory ruling, and we are precluded from offering such relief. We observe that, imbedded in some of the letters to the court, are accusations by counsel for Safflane of misconduct on the part of Ms. Cowles's attorney. We have had occasion before to remark on the unfortunate tendency of counsel to litigate by ad hominem attack, but in any event he proffers no meaningful basis to infer misconduct by his adversary, much less offers a reason for the court to undertake satellite hearings to examine any lawyer's performance of his ethical obligations in these contentious lawsuits.
