Overlawyered: Chronicling The High Cost Of Our Legal System

“French fans sue Michael Jackson’s doctor Conrad Murray over ’emotional damage'”

Lawyer Emmanuel Ludot “is acting for around 100 fans who are members of an association that calls itself the ‘Michael Jackson Community.’ He said that while each fan could be awarded damages of up to 10,000 euros ($A12,400), they were seeking only a symbolic euro.” Jackson’s doctor was convicted of involuntary manslaughter following the singer’s death from an anesthetic overdose.
