Marketing Stem Cell Therapies as a Chiropractor: FDA & Legal Pitfalls to Avoid

When families lose a loved one due to someone else's negligence, one of the most difficult questions is understanding what compensation may be available and how it's calculated. While no amount of money can truly compensate for such a loss, wrongful death compensation is intended to provide financial stability for survivors and acknowledge the economic impact of their loss.

When a loved one dies due to someone else's actions, families often wonder about their legal options and the distinction between criminal charges and civil lawsuits. While both address the same tragic event, wrongful death civil cases and criminal homicide prosecutions serve different purposes and follow separate legal processes. Understanding these differences is crucial for families seeking justice and compensation after losing a loved one. Have You Lost A Loved One Because Of Someone's Negligence?

Various brief notes on assorted cases, including RROs, trespass and unlawful eviction for a licensee, and nuisance by football. Oh and use of make-up artists by a party… Pearton v Betterton Duplex Ltd (HOUSING – RENT REPAYMENT ORDER – rent paid before the start of the period when the offence was being committed) (2025) UKUT 175 (LC) The Upper Tribunal confirms that there is no jurisdiction to make a rent repayment order for a licensing offence where the only rent paid was rent in advance, prior to the start of the tenancy.  An RRO can only be made in relation to rent paid during the period the landlord is committing the offence, which is this licensing case started with the start of the tenancy. This is a position crying out for a swift (and simple) legislative change.

Times [Luis Ferré-Sadurní], Judge Blocks ICE Plan to Open Rikers Office Indefinitely): This case, at its essence, seeks to maintain the rule of law.

Per the suit, Purnell was reportedly at his house with two females who also lived there when the two women began fighting. Purnell had nothing to do with the argument, but he did reportedly attempt to break up the fight at one point. One of the women may have called the police or asked a relative to contact the police, according to the complaint. Once the police arrived, they attempted to arrest Purnell. The suspect refused to leave the house, so authorities had little choice but to call for backup. What was originally a simple fight quickly became a five-and-a-half-hour standoff with police. According to the complaint, the authorities called out SWAT teams, fire department staffers, K-9 units, and a crisis negotiation team to de-escalate the situation. The suspect was allegedly on the phone with his attorney, who advised him to surrender by stepping outside and waving a white cloth. When Purnell attempted to make this move, the authorities’ K-9 units responded under the…

When accidents happen, it's common for both parties to share some degree of fault. A driver may be speeding while another runs a red light. A worker might miss a safety step when their employer fails to provide adequate training. In these situations, how do courts decide who pays what?  Injured By Someone's Negligence In New York?

The law is full of buzzwords that further qualify other legal concepts. One of the most common terms found throughout law in general and family law in particular is “due diligence.” Due diligence is “[t]he diligence reasonably expected from, and ordinarily exercised by, a person who seeks to satisfy a legal requirement or to discharge an obligation” Black’s Law Dictionary (11th ed. 2019) The requirement of due diligence is effectively the court system telling litigants to “keep it moving or you’ll lose your rights” which exists in addition to statutes of limitations and other deadlines. Failure to act with due diligence means justice is delayed to the point of denial: evidence goes missing, witnesses forget (or worse, die). So, while the divorce litigation process feels like a series of delays and continuances, the courts can say “Sorry, it’s been too long. Hurry up and get to it or I’ll cancel your…

The Attack of June 13 On the night between June 12 and June 13, 2025, Israel launched a large-scale attack against  numerous sites and persons in the territory of the Islamic Republic of Iran, including nuclear reactor sites, nuclear scientists, who – according to Israel – were involved in advancing the Iranian nuclear project, senior commanders of the Iranian military and Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), and a number of military facilities used for storing, transporting and manufacturing surface-to-surface missiles, missile launchers, radar stations and military airfields. According to media reports, some 200 Israeli aircrafts carried out the first wave of attacks, along with unmanned aerial vehicles dispatched from secret bases inside Iran. In its initial statement on the operation – dubbed by the IDF as “Rising Lion” – the IDF described the operation as “a preemptive, precise, combined offensive to strike Iran’s…

  An estate plan isn’t something you create once and forget about. It’s meant to reflect your life as it is today, not who you were a decade ago. People come and go, financial situations shift, and your own wishes may evolve over time. If you’re wondering whether your current estate plan still fits, chances are it’s worth taking a fresh look. When Changes Occur in the Family Big life events involving loved ones are some of the most common reasons to revisit your plan. Marriage, for example, often prompts updates to include your spouse in property, healthcare, or guardianship decisions. Divorce has the opposite effect—it’s a moment when you might want to remove someone from your plan entirely or reassign key roles like executor or power of attorney. Bringing a child into your family is another milestone that calls for adjustments. Whether through birth or adoption, it’s important to name a legal guardian and think through how your…

If you are a general contractor (or the contractor responsible for hiring subcontractors), please make sure to procure a worker’s compensation and employer’s liability insurance policy.  Also, don’t think you are “fully covered” if you have worker’s compensation through a professional employer’s organization, otherwise known as a PEO. If you go with a PEO, or are statutorily exempt from worker’s compensation, then you need to make sure ALL of the subcontractors you hire have worker’s compensation and employer’s liability insurance. No exception. Ever. The risk is much greater than any reward. In construction under Florida law, the general contractor is deemed the “statutory employer” for purposes of worker’s compensation.  This means that if a subcontractor does not have worker’s compensation, then the general contractor’s worker’s compensation policy is required to cover…

For the Balkinization symposium in honor of Ken Kersch James E. Fleming and Linda C. McClain We had the good fortune and great pleasure to be good friends of and in intellectual conversation with Ken Kersch. We appreciate the opportunity, through this Balkinization symposium on his work, to try to honor his legacy by offering some thoughts on his erudite and sobering work concerning conservative political and constitutional thought in the U.S.A recent “Best Sellers” list in the New York Times Book Review describes Timothy Snyder’s On Tyranny as follows: “Twenty lessons from the 20th century about the course of tyranny.” Kersch’s Conservatives and the Constitution: Imagining Constitutional Restoration in the Heyday of American Liberalism (2019) provides at least twenty lessons from the second half of the 20th century about the development of conservative constitutional thought and activism. These lessons are relevant for…

Here are some of the regulatory developments of significance to broadcasters from the past week, with links to where you can go to find more information as to how these actions may affect your operations. The FCC’s Media Bureau announced that June 10 is the effective date for the FCC’s modified broadcast foreign sponsorship identification rules, but the announcement stated that the FCC would delay its enforcement until December 8 to give broadcasters time to comply with the new rules.  In June 2024, the FCC released a Report and Order providing a written certification with standardized language that a broadcaster could use to determine whether those who “lease” program time on their stations are foreign government agents (see our discussion here).  Use of this new form, or another form with comparable language, will be required after December 8.  The 2024 decision also required that, for paid PSAs and other spots that are not for…

Micaela Mantegna (Berkman Klein Center) has posted “ARTificial: Why Copyright Is Not the Right Policy Tool to Deal with Generative AI” (The Yale Law Journal Forum | April 22, 2024) on SSRN. Here is the abstract: The rapid advancement and widespread application of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) raise complex issues regarding authorship, originality, and the ethical use of copyrighted materials for AI training. As attempts to regulate AI proliferate, this Essay proposes a taxonomy of reasons, from the perspective of creatives and society alike, that explain why copyright law is ill-equipped to handle the nuances of AI-generated content. Originally designed to incentivize creativity, copyright doctrine has been expanded in scope to cover new technological mediums. This expansion has proven to increase the complexity and uncertainty of copyright doctrine’s application—ironically leading to the stifling of innovation. In this Essay, I warn that…

Michael Goodyear (New York U Law) has posted “Artificial Infringement” (UC Law Journal, Forthcoming) on SSRN. Here is the abstract: Generative AI is changing the way we do everything from legal research to artistic creation. This is possible through recent advances in machine learning that allow AI systems to program themselves. With greater AI capacity, however, comes increasingly unpredictable outputs. AI systems will often generate an output the user and the developer never considered. Sometimes, these unforeseen outputs can infringe others’ copyrights in creative works. In the past two years, copyright law has become one of the leading legal and policy battlegrounds for generative AI. Yet the question of who should be liable when AI systems infringe has barely been addressed. By examining the historical and doctrinal response of copyright law to new technologies, this Article offers a new analytical framework for determining liability for what it terms…

Julie E. Cohen (Georgetown U Law Center) has posted “Oligarchy, State, and Cryptopia” (94 Fordham L. Rev. (forthcoming)) on SSRN. Here is the abstract: Theoretical accounts of power in networked digital environments typically do not give systematic attention to the phenomenon of oligarchy—to extreme concentrations of material wealth deployed to obtain and protect durable personal advantage. The biggest technology platform companies are dominated to a singular extent by a small group of very powerful and extremely wealthy men who have played uniquely influential roles in structuring technological development in particular ways that align with their personal beliefs and who now wield unprecedented informational, sociotechnical, and political power. Developing an account of oligarchy and, more specifically, of tech oligarchy within contemporary political economy therefore has become a project of considerable urgency. This essay undertakes that project. As I will…

Nicholas A. Caputo (Oxford Martin) has posted “’Quiet’ Enjoyment: Uncovering the Hidden History of the Right to Attention in Private and Public” (Stanford Technology Law Review (forthcoming 2025)) on SSRN. Here is the abstract: Legal scholars have largely neglected attention as a subject of legal rights, even as attention has become one of the most valuable economic resources of the modern era. This Article argues that a right to attention has existed implicitly in American law since the early twentieth century, emerging in response to technological, social, and economic changes in that period that made attention both increasingly valuable and increasingly impinged upon, as America shifted toward knowledge work and leisure activities that demanded sustained focus. By examining court decisions in private law doctrines around property and public law doctrines around speech that can only be explained by reference to an implicit right to attention, this…
