February 22, 2023 By Merritt Clifton

Oklahoma law meant to stop drone investigations parallels Texas law struck down by federal court COLGATE,  Oklahoma––How butt-hurt are Oklahoma cockfighters by ongoing Showing Animals Respect & Kindness [SHARK] drone surveillance,  funded by the Humane Farming Association?

February 21, 2023 By Merritt Clifton

& what a few other good lawyers think of the case             SONOMA,  California––Perhaps the most surprising part of Miyoko’s PBC vs. Miyoko Schinner,  the lawsuit filed on February 16,  2022 by Miyoko’s Creamery against the ousted founder of the company,  is the demand for a jury trial.

Miyoko’s Creamery sues Miyoko Schinner for allegedly stealing recipes

February 20, 2023 By Merritt Clifton
