: Kentucky Law BlogDIET DRUG TRIAL: Reader asks how the case ended up in Boone County?
By Michael Stevens
One of our non-lawyer readers posted the following question as a comment.
Does anyone know the answer?
A new comment from ?Karen? was received on the post ?DIET DRUG TRIAL: Former judge's testimony leads to request for fen-phen mistrial? of the weblog ?Kentucky Law Review?.
Comment:
Question from a non-lawyer here. Can anyone tell me how the fen-phen settlement case ended up with Judge Bamberger in Boone County? As I understand it, none of the three defendant lawyers were from that part of the state, nor were the majority of the plaintiffs. Chesley, however, is located in Cincinnati, so he would be close to Bamberger. Is there any way that the case could have been steered toward Bamberger's court or was it a random assignment? Thanks for any info.
