I Wonder When We Will See The Class Action Suits Against The MuFu's

I'd bet a good lawyer could even file a civil Ricoh suit.

There already is an SEC investigation of breach of fiduciary responsibility in manipulating stock prices.

It would seem to be a very fertile field. Especially now that the statements are out and people can see how much they lost.

Tech Stocks Gain on Lack of Bad News
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Key technology stocks gained ground in early trading on Friday, led by software giant Microsoft Corp., as many companies reported earnings that hit targets and didn't surprise an already battered market with more bad news.

>>Linda Tripp Fired From Pentagon Job
The Associated Press
Jan 19 2001 1:28PM

WASHINGTON (AP) - Linda Tripp, the woman whose secret tape recordings led to President Clinton's impeachment, was fired Friday by the Clinton administration after she refused to resign like other political appointees, her lawyer said.
``The termination of Linda Tripp is vindictive, mean-spirited and wrong,'' attorneys Stephen Kohn, David Colapinto and Michael Kohn said in a statement. ``President Clinton should not have ended his presidency on such a vengeful note.''

Word of Tripp's firing came as Clinton reached a deal to settle the remaining legal issues from the Monica Lewinsky scandal.

As a political appointee, Tripp was asked in recent days by her superiors to resign her position in preparation for the change in administrations, but on the advice of her attorneys she refused to do so in a letter Thursday addressed to Clinton.

Kohn blamed Clinton for the dismissal, saying that the ultimate responsibility for firing political appointees like Tripp rests solely with the president.

Tripp, a Department of Defense employee, was out of the country and the Clinton administration refused to show the letter of dismissal to her lawyers.

Kohn said that he was told of the termination by the Defense Department.
