In recent days, what I consider Mark’s unimpeachable character has come under a publicity-driven assault by corporate opponents who he vanquished, fair and square, in the courtroom. Supported by the national Chamber of Commerce as amicus, Johnson & Johnson has viciously assailed Mark for allegedly concealing payments to expert witnesses in the hip implant litigation. The national Chamber, which I’ve had the privilege of previously representing in various matters, has joined Johnson & Johnson in mounting a brass knuckles attack on Mark’s integrity in the hip implant litigation.
They should be ashamed. They are way off base, but they have chosen to “try the case” in an aggressive publicity campaign, rather than in the courts of the United States.
