This is an action for declaratory and injunctive relief by Plaintiff Kevin Trudeau ("Trudeau") against the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") to correct a false and misleading press release designed to cause injury to Trudeau. Trudeau is an author and consumer advocate, and has been a producer of television infomercials for direct response marketing. In the broadcast media, and in his books and newsletters, Trudeau has expressed views and opinions bluntly criticizing federal agencies – in particular the FTC. Recently, Trudeau's views and opinions about the FTC have gained wide circulation via his best-selling book, Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You to Know About (the "Natural Cures book"). The Natural Cures book is marketed chiefly by an infomercial (the "Natural Cures infomercial"), which Trudeau also uses Case 1:05-cv-00400-JDB Document 1-1 Filed 02/28/2005 Page 2 of 15 as a vehicle to express his views regarding the relationship between the FTC and elements of the pharmaceutical industry, and which infomercial is widely distributed throughout the United States. 2. Prior to the success of the Natural Cures book, Trudeau had entered into a stipulated order ("Stipulated Order") with the FTC regarding Trudeau's marketing of an alternative health product known as coral calcium.

  • Past Bad Speakers, Performance Bonds & Unfree Speech
    \\jciprod01\productn\H\HLS\3-2\HLS201.txt unknown Seq: 1 9-MAY-12 17:24 Past Bad Speakers, Performance Bonds & Unfree Speech: Lawfully Incentivizing “Good” Speech or Unlawfully Intruding on the First Amendment? Clay Calvert* ABSTRACT Using the recent legal woes of television pitchman Kevin Trudeau as an analytical springboard, this article examines the multiple First Amend- ment issues and red flags raised by the imposition of performance bonds on “past bad speakers” as conditions precedent for their future speech. Per- formance bonds, the article argues, blur the traditional line that separates prior restraints from subsequent punishments in First Amendment jurispru- dence. They also represent a form of government intrusion in the market- place of ideas — a form of interventionism, premised on financial incentivism — that ostensibly discourages dangerous or otherwise unlawful speech from re-entering the speech market. This article also addresses the proper standard of judicial scrutiny that should be used to evaluate the va- lidity of performance bonds. Furthermore, it considers whether the scope of performance bonds is necessarily limited to scenarios involving the Federal Trade Commission or whether such bonds can also be imposed in other con- tempt proceedings and/or by other federal agencies, such as the Federal Communications Commission. * Professor & Brechner Eminent Scholar in Mass Communication and Founding Director of the Marion B.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, RESPONDENT __________ ON PETITION FOR A WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SEVENTH CIRCUIT __________ PETITION FOR A WRIT OF CERTIORARI __________ KIMBALL R. ANDERSON STEFFEN JOHNSON THOMAS KIRSCH, II Counsel of Record Winston & Strawn LLP JEFF P. JOHNSON 35 West Wacker Drive PAUL KANELLOPOULOS Chicago, IL 60601 STEPHEN J. MIGALA (312) 558-5600 Winston & Strawn LLP 1700 K Street, NW Washington, DC 20006 (202) 282-5000 [email protected] Counsel for Petitioner i QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1. The Speedy Trial Act applies to “any Federal criminal offense which is in violation of any Act of Congress and is triable by any court established by Act of Congress (other than a Class B or C misde- meanor or an infraction, or an offense triable by [a military court]).” 18 U.S.C. § 3172(2). The criminal contempt statute does not classify criminal contempt as a Class B or C misdemeanor; it provides only that a federal court “shall have power to punish [contempt of its authority] by fine or imprisonment, or both, at its discretion.” 18 U.S.C. § 401. The first question presented is: Whether a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 401 should be classified as a Class A felony under 18 U.S.C. § 3559 (as the First and Fourth Circuits hold), similarly to the closest analogous offense (as the Sixth, Seventh, and Ninth Circuits hold), or sui generis based on the penalty actually imposed by the court (as the Third, Fifth, and Eleventh Circuits hold).

The Manufacture of Madness, Thomas S. These people want to keep you sick for their gain.

Drug-front groups have implemented slanderous campaigns in attempts to undermine the value of natural health lifestyles. Author Kevin Trudeau discusses everything from the common toxic ingredients in our food to natural remedies for a host of diseases and ailments. Please pardon our dust! The most disturbing aspect of Trudeau's book is the disclaimer, in which he states tongue-in-cheek to appease the FTC that his book "is for entertainment purposes only," that "truth is sprinkled in to spice things up," and that "the stuff in this book really doesn't work.
