NEWS UPDATE: Quite a lot of catching up with all sorts of news updates regarding Ponzi, potential Ponzis, and such

Okay folks, sorry for not updating the blog for a week or so. Had been busy doing some other stuff... like playing way too much Doctor Who Legacy. Any way, articles are coming back next week. In the meanwhile there are some news to tide you over.

Remember, I link to the source, so click through if you want more details. Don't believe random people telling you some sort of news, then provide a link to their own website with no further citings.


Howard Kaplan claims he cannot be negligent regarding Zeek Rewards

In June Zeek Rewards receiver Ken Bell sued Howard Kaplan (the tax attorney who advised Zeek Rewards at a widely publicized event) and MLM lawyer Kevin Grimes for legal malpractice. Kevin Grimes have been since ousted from what used to "Grimes and Reese PLLC", and the company renamed "R & R Law" with a new partner in his place. We learned, on in late July / Early August 2013, Howard Kaplan's attorney(s) has denied any responsibility and wants to case to be dismissed, not because they're not guilty, but because they argue that a guilty party (i.e. Zeek) cannot sue its consultants/lawyers for malpractice because of "in pari delicto", a legal term that roughly means "both are equally at fault". Zeek Receiver Ken Bell have since fired back a reply to the court that Kaplan's reasoning is flawed, and urge the case to continue.
