Claims Against Karate School Over Broken Nose Dismissed

A woman whose nose was broken during a sparring match at a Long Island, N.Y., karate school was an experienced practitioner of the sport and had assumed the inherent risk of injury or "even death," a state judge has concluded in dismissing her lawsuit against the school and its owner.

Former Prosecutor Put on Defensive Over Jury Allegations

It's a shocking story -- a former prosecutor alleges he and a now-deceased judge conspired to keep Jews off the jury in a capital punishment case. Yet the protagonist has been largely MIA. But not for much longer. John Quatman is expected to resurface next week in a California courtroom -- along with portions of his personnel file that current prosecutors hope will throw his credibility into doubt.
