    Suit against sect members can proceed

    By DAWN WALTON
    Saturday, February 26, 2005 Updated at 11:17 AM EST Calgary -- A lawsuit that accuses Jehovah's Witnesses members of contributing to the death of a Calgary teen who refused blood transfusions cleared a major legal hurdle yesterday as the Alberta Court of Queen's Bench rejected a motion that would have effectively thrown out the case.
    Lawrence Hughes was rightfully named administrator of the estate of his 17-year-old daughter, Bethany, who died of leukemia in 2002, the court ruled yesterday. As a result, he can move ahead with his $975,000 lawsuit against the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Canada, its lawyers, its members and Bethany's mother.

    This is great news! I wish Lawrence the greatest sucess.

    I hope that those that are JW lawyers get tired of the Governing Body and quit Bethel because of the bull shit theyv'e had to clean up after the GB. It may be happening right now. Think about it the GB have issued the call for more lawyers to the congregations,, perhaps there is some disloyalty growing towards the GB being manifested in the legal department and the GB needs help desparately. Anybody working in legal at Bethel must see all the crap that the GB are about because of the issues they are called upon to defend.

    Bye Bye Governing Body!

    Your endurance has been inspirational.

    This is wonderful news, as it will put a huge flood light on this corruptive, deceptive and unloving book publishing corporation masked as a true, pure and loving religion.

    May The Force be with you.
