without prejudice Without any loss or waiver of rights or privileges.When a lawsuit is dismissed, the court may enter a judgment against the plaintiff with or without prejudice. When a lawsuit is dismissed without prejudice, it signifies that none of the rights or privileges of the individual involved are considered to be lost or waived. The same holds true when an admission is made or when a motion is denied without prejudice.The inclusion of the term without prejudice in a judgment of dismissal ordinarily indicates the absence of a decision on the merits and leaves the parties free to litigate the matter in a subsequent action, as though the dismissed action had not been started. Therefore, a dismissal without prejudice makes it unnecessary for the court in which the subsequent action is brought to determine whether that action is based on the same cause as the original action, or whether the identical parties are involved in the two actions.
On March 8, Mark and Nicole Peet, residents of upstate New York, sent their son to the Rainbow Canyon Retreat, a Narconon drug rehab center that relies on the teachings of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. The young man was back home by May 13. In the lawsuit they filed in Nevada on November 21, the Peets allege that their son (whose name we’re withholding because of his age) went through disturbing mistreatment at the hands of older patients, including “branding” him with a hot iron.The Peets are suing to get back the $39,000 they paid Rainbow Canyon, and are also asking for punitive damages, alleging that their son was so affected by his experience at the facility, it led to his attempting suicide on September 5.
Not sure where to put this, document is part of supportive documents sent to ADP from Narconon in 2008 when Narconon Tahoe was applying for a license.http://i50.tinypic.com/2eofn9z.jpg
This is a medical malpractice case against Narconon front group called A Forever Recovery, Inc, and it's medical director, several physicians and medical professionals, along with 2 medical centers in Battle Creek and Albion MI. In a nutshell, Mr. Richmond went to A Forever Recovery for help and, boy, did they ever fail him! Not only did AFR fail him during his the detox withdrawal phase of treatment, but they prevented him from getting adequate medical care for withdrawal seizures, resulting in a fall that cause internal bleeding and fracture resulting in later emergency surgery and treatment elsewhere. The plaintiff was failed because of the professional malpractice of AFR's Medical Director and these physicians who scrapped medical protocol when plaintiff kept having seizures and was admitted several times, not properly treated and then released back to AFR because A Forever Recovery's Stephen Robinson, MD told others in writing that plaintiff was not to be administered any medications. AFR and physicians failed to properly treat plaintiff because they deemed that the plaintiff was faking it when he wasn't.

15. Narconon insisted upon receiving a deposit of $40,000, in advance, before either of the Gores left New York, in order to "save a spot" for the Patient.
25. Narconon's connection to, and use of, Scientology and its teachings, including exposing vulnerable patients to such "teachings," was a material component of Narconon's treatment program. Narconon knew that such treatment is highly controversial and unacceptable to a large proportion of people, and that if such connection were known to the Gores, the Gores would not have chosen their facility for the Patient.
COUNT FOUR(FRAUDULENT CONCEALMENT- ALL DEFENDANTS)61. Plaintiffs repeat and reallege each and every allegation of paragraphs 1 through 40 of this Amended Complaint with the same force and effect as if fully set forth herein. 62. When the Gores delivered $40,000 and the Patient to Defendants, Narconon's connection with Scientology was peculiarly within the knowledge of Defendants, and this information was not readily available to the Gores, and would not have been readily available to the Gores through the exercise of ordinary intelligence and diligence.63. During the time that the Gores delivered $40,000 and the Patient to theDefendants, the Patient was experiencing emergency medical issues as a result of substance abuse requiring immediate attention. Because of the emergent nature of the circumstances surrounding the Patient, the Gores were unable to investigate Narconon beyond viewing the Website andspeaking to Narconon spokespersons by telephone.64. Defendants knew that when the Gores delivered to the Defendants $40,000 and the Patient, the Gores were acting on the basis of mistaken knowledge because they did not know of Narconon's connection with Scientology.65. In delivering the $40,000 and the Patient to Defendants, the Gores justifiably relied on Defendants' material omission of Narconon's connection to Scientology.66. Defendants had a duty to disclose Narconon's connection with Scientology to the Gores because Defendants knew: (1) that Narconon was connected with Scientology; (2) that the Gores were acting under the mistaken belief that Narconon was not connected with Scientology;and that (3) knowledge of Narconon's connection with Scientology was not readily available to the Gores, and would not have been readily available to the Gores through the exercise of ordinary intelligence and diligence.
I'd love to hear Narconon try to argue that if the Gores had only looked at the internet, it's full of anti-narconon sites like this one.
I like to think of us as pro-truth instead of anti-nn
That would be rich, but the Gore's situation is a perfect example of what happens in so many cases. Their situation is urgent and everyone is desperate for help. As a result, not enough research is done. I totally understand how it happens, but it sure is sad to see this happen over and over again.
63. During the time that the Gores delivered $40,000 and the Patient to theDefendants, the Patient was experiencing emergency medical issues as a result of substance abuse requiring immediate attention. Because of the emergent nature of the circumstances surrounding the Patient, the Gores were unable to investigate Narconon beyond viewing the Website andspeaking to Narconon spokespersons by telephone.
Are there any current cases against the Freedom Center in Albion other than the Teague case? Looking to get in touch with a MI lawyer who are potentially already familiar with the center...
