What I meant to say was that the judge will be inclined to more discovery not less. Also, KBP may be right. Duke may not have sufficient funds to settle all of this out of court. It should be an interesting time now that the shoe's on the other foot.<BR/><BR/>Jack in Silver SpringAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13073631.post-15909542967242817652008-04-16T09:20:00.000-04:002008-04-16T09:20:00.000-04:00Thanks JohnJack in SS,For Duke to settle it will n...Thanks John<BR/><BR/>Jack in SS,<BR/>For Duke to settle it will need to figure out how to settle all 3 complaints for ALL of the defendants.<BR/><BR/>While I believe everything is for sale, the price to achieve reach that outcome is much greater than what I anticipate the Duke administration can get from those that control the funds.<BR/><BR/>kbpkbphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11814695387546108048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13073631.post-27481409868235002302008-04-16T06:26:00.000-04:002008-04-16T06:26:00.000-04:00You are correct,some of the group(Duke 47) would l...You are correct,some of the group(Duke 47) would like to see BOSTOCK, STEEL, WAGONER, SCHWARTZ,JOHNNY J.; notwithstanding the hundreds of millions they as a group have given; be introduced to the TRUTH. The reference to the 47 is just that, all the team members ARE being effected, WHAT ARE THESE TRUSTEES( DUKIES) covering up, is it possibly a very EARLY SETTLEMENT & APOLOGY to CGM at the expense of the TEAM? Why did JJM threaten to resign from the BOT after reading S.Taylor's book some 9 mmonths ago? Why did David Gergan tell childhood friend J. Cheshire in June 2006, the only worrying thing about the case for the BOT was a law suit from CGM??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13073631.post-80876268078789095552008-04-16T03:50:00.000-04:002008-04-16T03:50:00.000-04:00Jack,Are you sure you have your more/less straight...Jack,<BR/>Are you sure you have your more/less straight? I was remembering that the thinking was Duke would try to settle if they feared the judge allowing a lot of unsealed discovery.<BR/><BR/>In any event, I agree with hawkeye that a lot of this group of plaintiffs is not really interested in a monetary settlement. It is pretty clear in the filing that they are looking for substantive change at Duke and not just a payoff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13073631.post-70999189150145530392008-04-15T21:34:00.000-04:002008-04-15T21:34:00.000-04:00Some, if not all of the plaintiffs will not be sat...Some, if not all of the plaintiffs will not be satisfied with anything but Duke being pilloried in public for its egregious and dastardly behavior.

The thinking of some of the people I had read was that the lawsuit was a ploy to determine which way the judge was leaning - more discovery or less discovery. If the judge was inclined to the latter, so the thinking went, Duke would settle out of court. With the ruling that has come down, it seems to me the judge is indeed inclined towards the latter (although I have not yet read his opinion). Don't be surprised if Duke settles out of court. Anything to avoid the embarrassment of discovery.<BR/><BR/>Jack in Silver SpringAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
