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.

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 infomercial industry is booming, enjoying $91 billion dollars a year in sales, offering safe, reliable products, and making household names of super pitchmen who offer you products to buy from the comfort of your own home. But despite offering thousands of reputable products, the industry does have it blemishes. The Federal Trade Commission has launched an on-going crackdown targeting ads after the FTC found deceptive weight loss ads running ‘rampant’ and more than half of all weight loss ads studied contained at least one false claim. And then there’s Kevin Trudeau, leader of what the FTC calls an “infomercial empire that’s misled Americans for years.” After an ad aired for a product called Coral Calcium Supreme, which claimed to cure everything from cancer to heart disease. The FTC banned Trudeau from infomercials for life. But thanks to a loophole in the settlement, within months, Trudeau was back on the air, hawking his book, which became a national best seller. 1 of 26 From the inside out about:reader?url=http://www.nbcnews.com/id/14856571/ns/dateli...

KEVIN TRUDEAU, Defendant-Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division. No. 03-C-3904—Robert W. Gettleman, Judge. ARGUED MAY 14, 2009—DECIDED AUGUST 27, 2009 Before RIPPLE, MANION, and TINDER, Circuit Judges. TINDER, Circuit Judge. If you have a problem, chances are Kevin Trudeau has an answer. For over a decade, Trudeau has promoted countless “cures” for a host of human woes that he claims the government and corpora- tions have kept hidden from the American public. Cancer, AIDS, severe pain, hair loss, slow reading, poor memory, debt, obesity—you name it, Trudeau has a “cure” for it. To get his messages out, Trudeau has become a marketing Case: 08-4249 Document: 34 Filed: 08/27/2009 Pages: 55 2 No. 08-4249 machine. And the infomercial is his medium of choice. He has appeared in dozens of them, usually in the form of a staged, scripted interview where Trudeau raves about the astounding benefits of the miracle product he’s pitching. But Trudeau’s tactics have long drawn the ire of the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”). By pro- moting his cures, Trudeau claims he is merely exposing corporate and government conspiracies to keep Americans fat and unhealthy. But the FTC accuses Trudeau of being nothing more than a huckster who preys on unwitting consumers—a 21st-century snake-oil salesman.
