SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 30 – Jean A. Metzker says
she tripped on a rug just
inside the Whole Foods on
Union Square in Manhattan.
She sued in the
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York,
but on July 30 her attorney
Stefano Filippazzo forgot to
call in to the initial
pre-trial conference before
SDNY Judge Gregory H. Woods.
Inner City Press covered
it.
Whole
Foods' lawyer called
Filippazzo, who then got on
the call. He began to read out
loud from the already-filed
case management plan. Judge
Woods was not amused. Inquiry
was made into expert
witnesses.
If all of this is
public, how not the filings of
a FinCen leaker /
whistleblower, of much more
public interest? We'll have
more on that.
This case is
Metzker v. Whole Foods Market,
Inc., 20-cv-5259 (Woods)
