Fish<br/><br/>" Daniel G. Fish, a principal in Daniel G. Fish LLC, writes that the hallmark of the elder law practice is its interdisciplinary nature. Recommendations which are based upon legal considerations alone will be incomplete, he warns. Many of the outcomes in an elder law case will be determined by forces outside of the control or expertise of an attorney. The elder law attorney should work with other professionals in the aging field to present recommendations that take into account the entire constellation of forces at play.

Reardon and Mary Elizabeth McGarry<br/><br/>"Roy L. Reardon and Mary Elizabeth McGarry, partners at Simpson Thacher & Bartlett, write that the Court of Appeals' decision in <em>People v. Kozlowski</em>, contains an interesting discussion of corporate internal investigations, cooperation with law enforcement authorities, privileges potentially applicable to material generated by counsel in conducting internal investigations, and waiver. The opinion also discusses, without resolving, an <em>Apprendi </em>issue. They discuss that decision, as well as the decision in a case involving expulsion of an Episcopal parish from the Diocese of Rochester and the ensuing battle over entitlement to church property."</font></p> <p><font size="2">OUTSIDE COUNSEL:</font></p> <p><a href="http://alm.rsys1.net/servlet/cc6?HtuYQSRYRYQSVKIHKLjlkxJhmjlkQklHlLQgPQmkVaVSB" target="_blank"><font size="2">N.Y. Seeks to Join States Regulating Pay to Physicians</font></a><br/><font size="2">Thursday, November 6, 2008<br/>By Phoebe A. Wilkinson and Karl H. Buch<br/><br/>"Phoebe A. Wilkinson, a partner with Chadbourne & Parke, and Karl H. Buch, a counsel with the firm, write that earlier this year, Governor David Paterson introduced a bill that would add New York to the growing number of states that have enacted legislation regulating payments, gifts, honoraria, and other items of value given to physicians by the pharmaceutical and/or medical device industries. Governor Paterson's stated intent in making this proposal is to 'allow practitioners to exercise their clinical judgment and make prescribing decisions free of . . . influence.'

The Second Circuit said attorney Todd C. Bank used an "inventive" approach in trying to bring a class action under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act in federal court, but that Mr. Bank's 10,000 purported class members would have to bring individual actions." </font></p> <p><font size="2"> </font></p></font>
