Robinson brings broader allegations involving fen-phen litigation
against the defendants. Robinson, a Magnolia, Texas, woman who worked
on fen-phen litigation while employed at the firms, alleges the
defendants engaged in mail fraud under 18 U.S.C. §1962 for mailing
settlement statements to fen-phen clients that contained overcharges
for medical records. Robinson alleges "firm employees would order
fictitious medical records" for clients from health-care providers
that had never treated those clients, and then the firms added $100 to
$150 to the expenses deducted from the clients' portion of their
fen-phen settlements for those "fictitious medical records." She
alleges the record companies would then pay a "kickback" to employees
of the firms.
