I am very happy for Ms. Seidel, and hope that Dr. McCormick's subpoena meets the same fate.

Stand by for Shoemaker news -- he has 10 days to explain why he should not be sanctioned.

Excellent news. Most excellent. A victory for all of us, but in particular, Seidel.

Thank you for keeping track of this whole phenomenon, Liz! Clearly Shoemaker did not know what he was getting into!

I think the next thing should be for the Sykeses to sue him for legal malpractice. Since they seem to enjoy litigation, and he seems to be incompetent.
