Mejia et al v Dole Food et al

CONCLUDED

Hearing
06/17/09 – 06/17/09

Summary

6-17 contempt hearing.

From "The American Lawyer" - "At the hearing Thursday, Chaney dismissed from the bench two tort cases against Dole and Dow Chemical, ruling that Los Angeles plaintiffs lawyer Juan Dominguez and co-counsel in Nicaragua committed a "fraud on the court" and a "blatant extortion" of the defendants. In the hottest water is Dominguez, counsel to thousands of Nicaraguan men who won judgments against Dole Foods in Nicaraguan courts after claiming they were made sterile by the chemical DBCP, which is used on banana plantations."
