Makers of Equal, Splenda Settle
It was high drama at the U.S. District Court in Philadelphia on Friday in the battle between the makers of Equal and Splenda when the jury asked to see the expert reports on damages. Lawyers on both sides knew that probably meant the jury had decided in Equal's favor on liability -- with a verdict saying that Splenda's slogan "made from sugar so it tastes like sugar" is misleading -- and was struggling only with how much money to award. But an 11th hour settlement made the jury's verdict unnecessary.For Congoleum Corp. Chapter 11, Tenth Time May Be the Charm

The coalition says Facebook's policies are unfair and deceptive.Mixture of Growth, Slowdown Is Seen
The growth statistics in the New York Law Journal's 2001 "NYLJ 100" don't reveal the economic repercussions of Sept. 11. Because the data collected is only current through Sept. 30, it doesn't fully reflect the past three recession-filled months, and in many ways offers a snapshot of law firms on the brink. One fact retains its consistency, however, and that is Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom's spot at the top of the list.Microsoft risks straining PC partners with Dell investment
