The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has requested comments on whether the commission should accept a provisional settlement with Forman Mills, Inc., which has agreed to pay a $600,000 civil penalty to settle claims that it violated the law by selling children’s upper outerwear garments with drawstrings. According to the agreement, the company had previously been fined for failing to report that it had distributed such garments in commerce. It has also agreed to adopt policies that will reduce the possibility that these products will be sold again through its stores. Comments are requested by April 15, 2014. See Federal Register, March 31, 2014.

What our clients say
"The newsfeeds deliver us the most recent legal analysis and practical information. There seems to be a broad analysis which is beneficial to us in analyzing various areas of law. It provides a snap shot update of various legal developments and assists us in staying current. The articles are well covered and include the right amount of detail. The size and depth of articles are good too, so we can get to the information one needs very quickly. The articles are typically of high calibre and from high-calibre authors who provide sufficiently succinct articles so that one can learn much about new developments in a short amount of time. I like the format because it is easy to scan for relevant articles. It's a great tool. I like the fact you can tailor the newsfeeds by jurisdiction and work area, and only receive information relevant to your practice."
