: Legal Pad | LAFormer Toyota lawyer turns whistleblower on automaker with claims of concealing evidence
By Richard Binder
Dimitrios P. Biller of Pacific Palisades, a former managing counsel for Toyota Motor Sales USA Inc., filed a lawsuit in federal court on July 24th that legal experts predict could reopen cases that the automaker had won or settled over several years.
The suit alleges that the company repeatedly forced him to illegally withhold information from opposing lawyers and made him resign in September 2007. Also in the lawsuit, he claims Toyota illegally withheld e-mails and other computer-stored information from victims' attorneys, and also destroyed data in more than 300 accidents that proved vehicle roofs were substandard.
Biller worked for Torrance-based Toyota Motor Sales from 2003 to 2007. He was involved in defending the company in cases in which sport utility vehicles and trucks were in rollover accidents. He said the company gave him a $3.7 million severance payment.
