I am writing to describe the very positive experience I had with Shonny Kugler who was the agent who handled the sale of my Mom’s house. Shonny was recommended by a family friend and introduced herself at a very difficult time just after my Mom’s death. She was sympathetic and used her experience to gently guide us through the entire real estate process. She carefully went through the property and made recommendations as to how to prepare the house for sale. Because we were out of town, she supervised the preparation, the building inspection, explained the intricacies of the paper work, set the asking price, developed the marketing strategy and, most importantly, quickly found a buyer who offered the listed price. Kugler We couldn’t have been more satisfied with the entire process.

  • The Unregulated Certification Mark(Et)†
    Stanford Law Review Volume 69 January 2017 ARTICLE The Unregulated Certification Mark(et)† Jeanne C. Fromer* Abstract. Certification mark law—a branch of trademark law—itself enables consequences that undermine the law’s own goals through inadequate regulation or oversight. Because the law allows certification standards to be kept vague, high-level, and underdeveloped, a certifier can choose to exclude certain businesses inconsistently or arbitrarily, even when those businesses’ goods or services would seem to qualify for the certification mark (particularly to consumers). Moreover, even when a certification standard is clear and complete, certifiers can wield their marks anticompetitively. They can do so through redefinition—something certification mark law currently allows without oversight—to ensure that certain businesses’ goods or services will not qualify for the mark. Both of these forms of certification mark manipulation undermine the goals of certification marks: to protect consumers by providing them with succinct information on goods’ or services’ characteristics and to promote competition by ensuring that any businesses’ goods or services sharing certain characteristics salient to consumers qualify for a mark certifying those characteristics. The law should be restructured to curb this conduct. I advocate for robust procedural regulation of certification standardmaking and decisionmaking that would detect and punish poor certification behavior. Moreover, for anticompetitive behavior that nonetheless slips through the regulatory cracks, I suggest that attentive antitrust scrutiny be arrayed to catch it. † See Ian Ayres & Jennifer Gerarda Brown, Mark(et)ing Nondiscrimination: Privatizing ENDA with a Certification Mark, 104 MICH. L. REV. 1639 (2006); Mark A. Lemley & Mark P. McKenna, Owning Mark(et)s, 109 MICH.

Kosher Crisis Hits $19 Billion Market With Rabbis Stuck at Home September 16, 2020 from the Bloomberg Businessweek "In an ordinary year, Rabbi David Moskowitz would have spent the weeks before Rosh Hashanah, the holiday that celebrates the start of the Jewish New Year, working in China. For more than a decade, the native of New York’s Rockland County has run Shatz Kosher Services, which verifies that ingredients made in Chinese factories don’t contain pork or otherwise violate Jewish dietary laws. Late summer is usually a busy season, with companies gearing up to make products for Passover the following spring." "Rosh Hashanah starts on Sept. 18, but Moskowitz hasn’t been to China in months. The Chinese government closed its borders to most foreigners early in the Covid-19 pandemic, and the 53-year-old is in Ashdod, an Israeli city about 20 miles south of Tel Aviv. From there, he tries to do his job via videoconferences linked to cameras at Chinese factories showing him everything from the office to the factory floor to the warehouse. “It’s not the traditional way, but what is traditional in corona?” he asks.

Since the late 1980s, the tiny Midwestern town had been the site of Agriprocessors, the country’s largest kosher 1 meatpacking and processing plant. A group of Haredi 2 Jews belonging to the Lubuvitcher sect of Chassidic 3 Judaism ran and operated Agriprocessors. Through their ownership of the plant the ultra-Orthodox Jews, and their mainly Guatemalan and Mexican immigrant workforce, lived alongside Iowans who had called Postville home for generations.

We chatted for only a few minutes before I had to return to the immediate tasks at hand. “Let’s get together soon,” I insisted. “We’ll grab a sandwich and some coffee and really catch up.” How many times and in how many places have the words, “we’ll grab a sandwich…” preceded an invitation for an opportunity to establish, reestablish, or strengthen the bonds we have with those we care about? Sandwiches provide an easy and comforting way to “grease the skids” of human interaction.
