This is a totally baseless complaint in a case where I represented six workers of the Christian Broadcasting Network in the course of workers compensation and other litigation, Powell previously said in a statement from September. This same complaint was presented in a motion and thrown out by the judge.
I believe this is politically motivated based on the timing of the complaint and the fact that the complaining attorney is a former Republican Congressional staffer. In the end, I successfully resolved this case through mediation, he added.

(1,846 posts)2. This looks like a nuisance suit
I find it hard to believe that if Company A is being sued, a lawyer for the plaintiff would actually tell the employees of Company A that Company A was NOT being sued.
These employees would be represented by Company A's counsel who would know wtf is going on.
I can't imagine the question would even come up.
Seems like bull to me. Would be interested in hearing what others think.
