NEWS: Kyle Lowder Lawsuit, Collins, Britney, Irna, McArdle

Kyle Lowder Sues Business Manager
Lowder claims his manager screwed up his 401(k) plan. Lowder accused John Larkin and Larkin Business Management of fraudulent concealment, unjust enrichment, conversion and breach of faith, in Superior Court. Lowder says he was just 20 years old, and "a neophyte" in business affairs when he hired Larkin in 2000.

He claims that Larkin's mismanagement will "subject him to substantial income and other tax." His 27-page complaint adds that "the Larkin Defendants were not properly performing the services for which they were being paid ... and breached the contractual duties they had agreed to perform." Lowder claims that Larkin failed to properly maintain his accounts, improperly advancing money from and to his 401(k), and invested his retirement assets in "non-diverse real estate limited partnerships."
Lowder seeks punitive damages. He is represented by Rebecca Mocciaro with Farmer & Ridley.

LYNN LICCARDO: As Irna's World Turned
"In her unpublished autobiography, 'All My Worlds,' she tells of a difficult labor and delivery resulting in stillborn daughter with a clubfoot, and sterility. A Chicago writer, Les White, claims that it was an illegal abortion that left Irna sterile, and while it’s certainly plausible, even likely, White offers no corroboration. But, however the pregnancy was ended, the result was, Katherine’s words, 'a past which divined the path Mummy was to take for the rest of her life.'"
