BREAST CANCER TALKS UNDER PRESS BLACKOUT

In an email sent to clients last week, class action lawyer Ches Crosbie told his clients that the mediator had advised the parties to accept a blackout on public communications through the press until the mediation is done.  “He advised this is in the interests of settlement”, Mr. Crosbie wrote, “and we agreed.”

Mr. Crosbie has stated publicly that Eastern Health does not have enough insurance to pay the injury claims.

The personal injury class action is in the name of Verna Doucette, who says in court documents that she has suffered irreversible lung damage from unnecessary chemotherapy and may need to have her lung removed as a result.  The allegations have not yet been proved in court.

Doucette will be assisted at the talks by a panel of six other class members.
