The Kimberly Bracey lawsuit continues to plod along in federal court. The latest notice states:
Both sides filed notices of service of interrogatories and requests for production of documents yesterday. What is interesting is a settlement agreement was placed on the agenda of the Jackson City Council a few weeks ago but it was pulled from the agenda when the meeting started.

Assuming that he is running don't see how this helps Yarber to have the matter unresolved before a primary for re-election.
Why the hell should the taxpayers of Jackson be paying to settle out of court for the Mayor's failure to rein in his - desires? Maybe that should be part of his re-election campaign platform. I can see it now on billboards" RE-ELECT Tony Yarber AS MAYOR OF JACKTOWN! HE'LL KEEP LIL' TONY IN HIS PANTS!"
10:20, you must not know how government bodies work. They consider it cheaper to settle than go to trial. That's why these types of cases are always settled. All someone has to do if they didn't get the job they wanted or if they want to relocate to another place is file a lawsuit. Wham, bam they get what they want. Not opinion, that is what an attorney for any gov. agency will tell you.
@12:50 You and I both know what you said about not getting the job isn't true. You can file a law suit but you and I both know it all depends on who you are, how much pull your family has with the government entity you're suit is against and if you are related to any department head or such as that !
Everyone who has ever worked a govt. job knows the best way to get a better job, not counting being family or paying a bribe, is to be so sorry they want to get you out of the department you are working in.
I googled "legal disclaimer" and found this. I figure it's as interesting as the post above.
For more than 12 years, EWG’s Skin Deep® database has been a practical resource for consumers seeking to avoid exposures to chemicals of concern in personal care products. Building on that effort, EWG has created the EWG VERIFIED™ mark as a means to easily inform consumers at the point of sale, in stores or online, when a product meets EWG’s strictest criteria, going above and beyond a green rating in EWG’s Skin Deep®. EWG’s research team has worked hard to develop rigorous standards to be followed by all products bearing the EWG VERIFIED™ mark, including avoiding chemicals of EWG concern, disclosure of ingredients seldom listed on product labels, and adherence to good manufacturing practices. To learn more about what it means to be EWG VERIFIED™ and/or how to participate in the program, visit http://www.ewg.org/EWGVERIFIED/. For the sake of clarity, you may not use the EWG VERIFIED™ mark without first going through the assessment process and obtaining the requisite approval.
Keep up the interesting posts, Kingfish!
