Lowell's clients have included Rep. Gary Condit during the Chandra Levy scandal and former lobbyist Jack Abramoff.

Errors Lead 2nd Circuit to Order New Damages Trial in Employment Case

A former consultant at an online investment company has successfully argued that, as a result of errors made by the judge overseeing his case, he is entitled to a new trial. A 2nd Circuit panel held that errors made by Southern District of New York Judge Harold Baer Jr. in the ex-employee's breach of contract case warranted a new trial on damages. The panel found fault with some evidentiary rulings and jury instructions, and said Mark Boyce might be entitled to more than the $400,000 in damages awarded.

Plaintiffs Await Ruling on Canceled Health Insurance Policies

A California appeals court will hear arguments next week in a closely watched case that challenges an insurance company's practice of rescinding health coverage based on errors in an application. One plaintiffs lawyer says that litigation over the practice, often referred to as post-claims underwriting, has increased in recent years, but so far hasn't led to any significant case law.
