Thelen Class Action Case Gets a Little Simpler

May 31, 2009

Two former Thelen employees are throwing in the towel after their attorney was accused of trying to get a piece of the action too many times. Cary Kletter filed three similar complaints in two courts and tried to intervene in a fourth case, but attorneys for Thelen threatened to seek sanctions, saying he was bogging down the courts so he could rack up fees for himself. Late Friday, Kletter said his clients, at the request of Thelen, had decided not to pursue the case, which would likely be "resolved or dismissed soon."
