Appellate Court Confirms Insurance Agents Not Liable After Death of Insured for Alleged Misrepresentations in the Absence of a Fiduciary Duty Traub Eglin Lieberman Straus won reversal of a $1 million verdict that found an insurance agent responsible for misrepresentations in a life insurance application. Two policies were rescinded when it was discovered, after the insured's death, that the decedant had made material misrepresentations in the life insurance policies. The family sued the insurance agent and won in the lower courts, arguing the insurance agent should have advised her of the importance of providing truthful answers on the policy applications. On appeal before the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Nassau, Jonathan Harwood of TELS argued that a fiduciary duty did not exist, and the agent was not the proximate cause of the rescission of the policies. The court agreed with TELS' legal arguments, and overturned the lower court's verdict. - 2005-12-02

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Authors respond to the recent banning in Thailand of their book, "Bangkok Inside Out" On November 22, Thailand’s prominent daily newspaper Kom Chad Luek ran a front page story quoting a senior Thai government official, Ms Ladda Tangsuphachai, Director of Cultural Monitoring at the Thai Ministry of Culture, alleging that Bangkok Inside Out taints the image of Thailand and its people. The article states that our book “discusses negative subjects such as fake goods, gambling, gay performances, touts and scams, and places such as Patpong, Nana, and Khaosan Road,” and singles out a photograph that shows a bar girl on farang's (foreigner's) lap. Ms Ladda is quoted as saying that “according to the Constitution, the press has freedom to publish. So, all we can do is to take the problematic books off the shelf.” This is the author's response. - 2005-12-02
