Recent class action clients include the class of participants in Randalls Food Markets, Inc.’s employee stock ownership plan and depositors in a financial institution called Monytron operating out of Fiesta supermarkets in Houston, Texas.

4. Robin
"Robin" – had died in New York of leukemia, two months shy of her fourth birthday.

George, 7, "had known she was sick but never dreamed she was dying. 'Why didn't you tell me?' Bush repeatedly asked his parents, and for years the question would resonate in the Bush family."

3. the client list looks like a good ol'boy roll call
I've wondered if Dorothy was affiliatd with Koch Industries. Her listing her residence as Bethesda, MD, makes it sound like she isn't.


also, wondering if this John O'Neill is any relation to "a boyhood friend" of *, Joe O'Neill ...

3rd topic section, 3rd para.


I'm assuming the "Pierce" in Clements law form is coincidence, and no relation to Babs.

Could the Clements listed in the law firm name (apparently deceased) was a relation to the William Clements who is a Trustee on Poppy's presidential library foundation?

5. Time Warner/CNN: Should CNN issue a disclaimer that O'Neill's firm...
represents their parent company? They often mention that Time Warner is their parent company, when it is in the news.
