Excellent News

On September 13, 2016 in the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, Lawrence Lessig, Harvard Constitutional Law Professor, defended the Berkeley Cell Phone Right to Know ordinance (pro bono) against Theodore Olson (certainly not pro bono), past Solicitor General under George W. Bush
who represented
the CTIA.

Today I received this wonderful news. We won!!!

The Judge who dissented is married to a man who designs the equipment for the 5G wireless rollout which has begun. She should have recused herself as this is a potential conflict of interest.

Many thanks to Larry Lessig and Robert Post, Dean of Yale's Law School for taking on this case. Amanda Shanor represented Yale in court on 2 occasions and was terrific.
And a huge thank you to Max Anderson and Kriss Worthington who co-sponsored the ordinance and the Berkeley City Council for believing in us!

I doubt it is over- this industry will most certainly appeal.
But with the CDPH Cell Phone and Health document issue, the Italian Court decision yesterday, and this decision
,
we are breaking down the industry's dam of denial. Sad that it takes this long as too many have already suffered or perished as they didn't know
cell
phones are not meant to be held to the body.

The court document is attached. Thank you.

Mobile industry loses its bid to stop Berkeley's cellphone warning law
(The case can now be appealed further to a full panel of 9th Circuit judges, or it could be appealed up to the Supreme Court. - À la page 37 du jugement ICI on peut lire: "Our assessment of the probability of CTIA's success on the merits, the likelihood of irreparable harm, the balance of the hardships, and the public interest lead us to conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying preliminary injunctive relief to CTIA. Accordingly, the district court's order denying such relief is AFFIRMED." Si le CTIA porte cela en appel, ils ne feront qu'attirer encore plus l'attention sur ce qu'ils cherchent à dissimuler à tout prix.)

LANDMARK CASE Italian court rules man's brain tumour 'was caused by using his mobile phone for work'
(His lawyers Stefano Bertone and Renato Ambrosio said in a statement: "For the first time in the world, a court has recognised a causal link between inappropriate use of a mobile phone and a brain tumour." Romeo said he did not want to demonise mobiles but added: "I believe we have to be more aware about how to use them. I had no choice but to use my mobile to talk to colleagues and organise work. For 15 years I was calling all the time, from home, in the car. I started to have the feeling of my right ear being blocked all the time and the tumour was diagnosed in 2010. Happily, it was benign but I can no longer hear anything because they had to remove my acoustic nerve.")
