Class Action News

[##_1L|1395538523.jpg|width="130" height="98" alt=""|_##]A Logan man, Chris Channing, is part of a class action law suit seeking to stop the New Mexico State Lottery from pulling games from the market that still have substantial cash prizes available, according to court papers filed last week in Bernalillio County. Others specifically named as a part of the class are Randy Stansell of Clovis who is the owner of Stansell's Thriftway Supermarket, Kenneth Nutt of Clovis who is the owner of three KC Express stores, two in Clovis and one in Portales, and Channing, who is an employee of the Logan Super Stop.

Attorneys Warren F. Frost and Timothy L. Rose filed the class action complaint alleging violation of the Unfair Practices Act, negligent misrepresentation and injunctive relief.

Lottery spokeswoman Linda Hamlin said Tuesday that lottery officials were reviewing the complaint and that it would be premature to comment.

In their complaint, it states that those in the class are frequent players of the New Mexico scratch off games and their decisions on which games to purchase are based upon the representations of the Lottery as the prize money available when a new scratch off game is introduced and on the information provided by the Lottery concerning how many top prizes are still available.

The suits requests the Lottery award the class damages, that permanent injunction be issued to stop the Lottery from discontinuing scratch-off games and define the specific circumstances when the Lottery can pick up unsold scratch games.

Illinois Work Injury Lawyers – Krol, Bongiorno & Given, LTD.

Accidents in the workplace are often caused by unsafe work conditions arising from ignoring safety rules, overlooking maintenance or other negligence of those in management. While we are one of the largest firms in Illinois dedicated solely to the representation of injured workers, we pride ourselves on the personal, one-on-one approach we deliver to each client.

Work accidents can cause serious injuries and sometimes permanent damage. Some extremely serious work injuries can permanently hinder a person’s ability to get around and continue their daily duties. Factors that affect one’s quality of life such as place of work, relationships with friends and family, and social standing can all be taken away quickly by a work injury. Although, you may not be able to recover all of your losses, you may be entitled to compensation as a result of your work injury. Krol, Bongiorno & Given, LTD. provides informed advocacy in all kinds of workers’ compensation claims, including:

• Injuries to the back and neck, including severe spinal cord injuries
• Serious head injuries
• Heart problems resulting from workplace activities
• Injuries to the knees, elbows, shoulders and other joints
• Injuries caused by repetitive movements

For Illinois Workers’ Compensation claims, you will ALWAYS cheat yourself if you do not hire an experienced attorney. When you hire Krol, Bongiorno & Given, Ltd, you will have someone to guide you through the process, and when it is time to settle, we will add value to your case IN EXCESS of our fee. In the last few years, employers and insurance carriers have sought to advance the argument that when you settle a case without an attorney, your already low settlement should be further reduced by 20% so that you do not get a “windfall.” Representing yourself in Illinois is a lose-lose proposition.
