More than 6 years
after 9-11, not one victim's case has gone to trial. Hellerstein has done
everything under the sun to prevent a liability trial from occurring. In a most
unusual move, for example, the first trials to be heard are only damages trial
to determine the amount of compensation rather than to determine liability for
the crime of the century.
Now, Hellerstein is
tightly restricting the evidence that the plaintiffs may present at the first
trial, as reported in the New York Times on October 18, 2007. Hellerstein
ruled "that he would exclude some of the plaintiffs’ more sensational and
speculative evidence" in the trial, which is to begin on November 5.
Hellerstein's ruling "was a blow for plaintiffs in this and possibly other
wrongful death cases stemming from the attacks, and could accelerate the pace of
settlements," the Times reported.
ONLY 12 CASES REMAIN
Joseph Wayland, a
lawyer for the airlines, told the Times that only 12 wrongful death cases
remained.
In the first
damages trial, the Ambrose case, Hellerstein ruled that the jury would not be
allowed to see photographs of at least one of the hijackers and Dr. Ambrose
separately passing through a security checkpoint at
“It’s a very, very
limited inquiry, and the judge is trying to make sure that liability issues and
other matters that might distract the jury from the limited issue before them
are kept out,” Wayland said. Excluding evidence and keeping the inquiry "very
limited" is what the process overseen by Hellerstein has been doing for the past
six years, since the 9-11 litigation began.

document about Alvin K. Hellerstein that suggests that he has been working with
the Israeli state since the mid-1950s. Because of the urgency of the 9-11
litigation, I am presenting this document with these comments. In the summer of

was a time when Mexico City was one of the key points through which U.S.
military contraband and airplanes were sent to Israel – in violation of U.S.
law. One of the key players in this weapons and airplane smuggling was a man
named Hank Greenspun, whose son Brian was one of Bill Clinton's best friends.
