Supreme Court ruling on preemption of state courts
In the first of a series of podcasts on the important topic of preemption, Civil Action Attorney Jan Schlichtmann joins Scott Drake on Speaking of Justice to discuss the recent Supreme Court ruling in the Eiegel v. Medtronic case. This decision is going to be the first of two key cases addressing this contentious issue and Jan weighs in with his thoughts on where this decision could lead. 
Later this week several of our other guest commentators will also cover this topic, with an eye toward the pending Warner-Lambert v. Kent as well as the Wyeth v. Levine cases that look at this same topic from the perspective of pharmaceutical litigation.
This is a major topic in mass torts and state law, as well as an issue of intense interest to Supreme Court watchers and constitutional law experts, so if you want to listen to a wide range of opinions and thoughts on preemption make sure you are getting our audio feeds or stealing our podcast widget so you can place it on your site.
