In a bit of legal news coming out of the windy city of Chicago, a former construction worker filed a personal injury lawsuit against several building firms after suffering considerable injuries during a work accident. Apparently, Mr.Thomas Capstick was working on a construction project on December 22, 2006, when the railing he was standing on collapsed. The plaintiff reports suffering a traumatic, disabling spinal personal injury.

All in all, he names several companies as being at least partially responsible for his personal injury, and this includes: Elite Contracting, Dayton Superior Corporation, ITW Red Head, OK Fasteners, and Keller Construction. The injury victim in question claims the defendants are indeed liable for his personal injuries and is seeking amounts of more than $500,000. As a side note, if you live in the greater Chicago area and need a well respected Chicago personal injury attorney then please call Mr. John Buden. He handles an assortment of different accidents and is an awesome Chicago personal injury attorney in my personal opinion. Onward to other legal related news:

A lawsuit filed in the state of Indiana charges that the Catholic Church failed to report to law enforcement a priest who had been accused of the serious crime of child molestation. His only discipline involved transferring him to different parishes.

Adding insult to personal injury, this suit claims that in 2003-04 Richard A. Emerson repeatedly abused a then-11-year-old boy at St. Thomas More parish in Munster, Ind. The boy is now 16. It is easy to see why they went and retained an attorney. It is an interesting world, is it not?

In recent market activity, Nissan’s Stock rose for the first time in several days on the Tokyo Stock Exchange following a report that the firm plus partner Renault of France
are in negotiating with the Chrysler Corporation to purchase assets. This could be good or bad news, depending on how you look at. I live in hawaii myself and I have noticed that
the Hawaii Nissan dealers are not as busy as in recent months but it still remains one of the most popular cars on the road here in Hawaii. All in all,
Nissan jumped up some 3.5 percent by the end of the day. All in all, Japanese rivals also rose following a much weakened yen. The Toyota Motor Corporation, for example, which is Japan’s largest automobile manufacturer, rose by  a decent 1.6 percent while number 2, the Honda Motor Company, rose by a more modest but still welcome 0.4 percent overall.  Go here for a good Hawaii Nissan dealer in your locality.
In addition to this, Renault and Nissan may bid for Chrysler’s Jeep class Division as well as related assets, according to several major mainstream medi sources. However, it should be noted that Nissan spokeswoman Pauline Kee refused to directly confirm this particular report.
For her part, Chrysler spokeswoman Shawn Morgan would not comment nor would Peter Duda, a spokesperson for Cerberus Capital Management LP, the owner of that firm.
The weaker yen obviously increases the value of the dollar-related earnings.
