I knew McSweegan
would go down when the
S hits the fan, so I kept a
copy of what he wrote on
Quackwatch.
Now lemme try to find it...

http://www.quackwatch.org/01QuackeryRelatedTopics/lyme.html
I also rearranged the homepage so that Yale's
negligent homicide was abundantly clear. No one
needs to wait for Richard Blumenthal. *Anyone* can
call the FDA and ask if I am right about Yale's patent.
*ANY* attorney in *any* state qualified to file in a US
Court (which would exclude most CT "judges" since
they're mostly not even qualified to even file a motion in
a Corrupticourt, and many have never done so- which seems
to be the qualification for a Corrupticourts judgeship- ZERO
EXPERIENCE...)
can file a Qui Tam claim false claims act suit against Yale.
The essence of the Qui Tam claim:
Yale knew LYMErix never prevented Lyme, and they
went forward anyway with the LYMErix trial with the knowingly
false assertion that the Dearborn diagnostic method was
accurate enough to qualify LYMErix.
They knew Dearborn is completely bogus, as you
can see from their US Patent 5,618,533 (1993).
Piece of cake.
Thanks,

Courts Seize "Quackbuster" Bank Accounts, Property...
Opinion by Consumer Advocate Tim Bolen
Thursday, February 22nd, 2007
A few days ago, Christopher Grell, one of the Plaintiffs, and the
attorney for the Plaintiffs Stephen Barrett and Terry Polevoy , filed
an
emergency Ex Parte Motion with the Alameda, California Trial Court in
the
Barrett v. Clark (Rosenthal) case asking for a Temporary Restraining
Order preventing Defendant Rosenthal from collecting attorney fees
awarded to Rosenthal by the Courts. The Court denied the Motion,
and
"collection" has begun in
earnest.
Rosenthal, you will remember, in a six year legal battle, soundly
thrashed the trio all the way to the California Supreme Court.
Rosenthal,
the head of the Humantics Foundation, a group pointing out the
dangers
of silicone breast implants, had been sued by the trio in 2000 where
they claimed she was some sort of conspirator supposedly defaming them
on
the internet. Rosenthal, in her answer to the suit, filed a Motion
to
Dismiss the suit against her claiming that the trio's action
constituted a violation of California's anti-SLAPP law. The Court
agreed,
dismissing the case against Rosenthal, and awarded her attorney fees.
The Barrett v. Clark (Rosenthal) case garnered international notice
when virtually ALL of the big names on the internet jumped in on
Rosenthal's side, filing "Friend of the Court" Briefs on Rosenthal's
behalf.
You can read all about that by clicking on "Quackbusters CRUSHED by
California Supreme Court..."
But the really good part of all this, the one that makes me smile
broadly, is that California's anti-SLAPP law, designed for just this
sort of
situation, worked just like it was designed. The anti-SLAPP
legislation, whose full title is "anti Strategic Lawsuit Against
Public
Participation," was designed to stop Plaintiffs from filing scurrilous
lawsuits
against Defendants just to shut them up on a public issue, by
overpowering them with litigation they cannot afford. The law
provides for the
Defendants, by allowing them to collect their attorney fees from the
Plaintiff almost immediately upon winning a Motion to Dismiss. The
trio
were able to forestall that original payment only because they
appealed
the original Judge's decision to the California Appeals Court, then
to
the California Supreme Court - where they were soundly, and
publicly,
horse-whipped.
The trio, apparently,
aren't willing to acknowledge their debt, nor
their loss. Now, the "collection" process has begun, and the Courts
are
allowing a ruthless approach to that collection, "as follows: Levy
on
any & all bank deposit accounts held in name or interest of judgment
debtor as well as accounts receivable, lines of credit, general
intangibles, and/or proceeds thereof in which he has an interest
individually or
jointly, include contents of any safety deposit to which he has
access;
SSN:113-44-9446"
It gets even better - Court documents say:
INFORMATION FOR JUDGMENT DEBTOR
1. The levying officer is required to take custody of the property
described in item 1 in your possession or under your control.
2. You may claim any available exemption for your property. A list
of
exemptions is attached. If you wish to claim an exemption for
personal
property, you must do so within 10 days after this notice was
delivered
to you or 15 days after this notice was mailed to you by filing a
claim
of exemption and one copy to levying officer as provided in section
703.520 of the Code of Civil Procedure. If you do not claim an
exemption,
you may lose it and the property is subject to enforcement of a
money
judgment. If you wish to seek the advice of an attorney, you
should
do so immediately so that a claim of exemption can be filed on time.
3. You are not entitled to claim an exemption for property that is
levied upon under a judgment for sale of property. This property is
described in the writ of sale. You may, however, claim available
exemptions
for property levied upon to satisfy damages or costs remaining unpaid.
4. You may obtain the release of your property by paying the amount
of
a money judgment with interests and costs remaining unpaid.
5. If your property is levied upon under a writ of execution or to
satisfy damages and costs under a writ of possession or sale, the
property
may be sold at an execution sale, perhaps at a price substantially
below its a value. Notice of sale will be given to you. Notice of
sale of
real property (other than a leasehold estate with an unexpired term
of
less than two years) may not be given until at least 120 days after
this notice is served on you. This grace period is intended to give
you
an opportunity to settle with the judgment creditor, to obtain a
satisfactory buyer for the property, or to encourage other potential
buyers to
attend the execution sale.
6. All sales at an execution sale are final; there is no right of
redemption.
So, what does this all mean?
Does this mean that Ilena Rosenthal will, fairly soon, have
"quackbuster" Barrett and Polevoy "souvenirs" to sell on the
internet? Will Terry
Polevoy, Canada's well known "pimple doctor" soon be relieved of
his
"pimple cream sample kit" or his box of disguises he wears when he
attends health conventions?
Will Stephen Barrett's basement full of "files" suddenly be on the
market?
Maybe.
Stay tuned...
