followed up on a listener inquiry from the previous week regarding class action lawsuits about the drug Suboxone. Expanded it to an explanation of Multi District Litigation in federal court and its advantages/disadvantages.
We talked about a recent Connecticut Appellate Court decision impacting the enforcement of firearms laws here, and how this past summer's U.S. Supreme Court decision in the Bruen matter may cause uncertainty in the enforcement of Connecticut's statutory scheme to regulate assault rifles, high-capacity magazines, and silencers.
The Legal Word of the Day was annulment: what it is, how it differs from a Dissolution of Marriage, and how the Court annulled the marriage of a wealthy but compromised 82-year old whose conservator claimed, and proved, he was incompetent at the time his sweetie took him to the Justice of the Peace to get them hitched before he died. Great facts!
listener calls:
a gentleman wanted to discuss the statute of limitations for medical malpractice cases (misdiagnosis of his son's multiple sclerosis);
b. a regular caller wanted to weigh in on the piece about Connecticut's firearms laws and whether there might be issues of Double Jeopardy (he misunderstood the issue...)
