We have several legal updates for you today, and we’ll start with the always entertaining Jeffrey K. Riffer, attorney for Church of Scientology leader David Miscavige. You’ll remember that the colorful Riffer, known for his over-the-top threat letters to Vanity Fair and CNN in which he comes off sounding exasperated that anyone would question the godlike […] Karen de la Carriere and Jeff Augustine recently met with Vance Woodward (center) We’re still waiting for a big decision from the Texas Third Court of Appeals regarding Monique Rathbun’s harassment lawsuit against the Church of Scientology. You may remember that Scientology appealed Comal County Judge Dib Waldrip’s denial of Scientology’s “anti-SLAPP” motion that […] We have another exclusive from our man in Paris, British journalist Jonny Jacobsen, who filed this report today… Two Swiss politicians are suing Scientology in the latest twist of a long-running battle to expose the movement’s links to an anti-drugs group there. They filed their case in response to a Scientology spokeswoman’s comments dismissing their efforts to […] Finally, we have a new trial date in Laura DeCrescenzo’s forced abortion lawsuit against the Church of Scientology.

We’ve noticed that some of our commenters have wondered how one attorney can handle so many different suits at the same time, and apparently, that question has occurred to Hamilton himself. On November 3, Hamilton submitted a […] Jeffrey Riffer Scientology leader David Miscavige has filed a motion to get himself dismissed from the massive lawsuit filed by the National Association of Forensic Counselors against Scientology and its drug rehab network, Narconon. But unlike the many other similar motions filed in the case, this is far from a routine legal document, and […] Let’s keep one thing in mind as we review, once again, why Tampa attorney Ken Dandar is facing ruination. The only reason his bizarre legal situation exists is because two people died on Scientology’s watch. One was a young church member named Lisa McPherson, who died in 1995 of severe dehydration, several experts say who […] We just spoke with Dani Lemberger, who let us know that he’s filed suit against the Church of Scientology in Tel Aviv. “We’ve been working hard at it the last two years,” Dani told us by telephone from Haifa. “It wasn’t easy.
