Often in bankruptcy proceedings, creditor committees are formed to negotiate settlements for groups of creditors, and then an allocation process is initiated to determine how much each creditor should recover. Regarding the Quebecor Claims, there are a wide range of secured and unsecured creditors. On January 31, 2008, an Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors was appointed in the case. As of the Petition Date, Quebecor has many unpaid invoices to creditors for various supplies and services. If you submitted invoices for supplies or services provided to Quebecor World and/or its affiliates prior to January 21, 2008, and would like help in obtaining reimbursement through the Bankruptcy proceedings, feel free to contact Scott Levensten, Esquire of the Levensten Law Firm.

Please be advised that the deadline for filing a proof of claim in the Quebecor World (USA) Inc., bankruptcy is on or before December 5, 2008. The role of your lawyer would be to submit your proof of claim and to adequately present the measure of your damages so that the appropriate creditor committee knows how much is needed to satisfy everyone’s claims. We would then fight for the highest allocation for you.
Thus, as you can see, participating in a bankruptcy proceeding involves much more than simply submitting a proof of claim. We have the experience that is necessary to fully protect your rights in submitting your Quebecor Claim. The Levensten Law Firm would welcome the opportunity to represent you in your Quebecor Claim.

Diamond said the violations occurred during a 12-month period and included radiation therapists inadvertently delivering a dose of radiation to the wrong patient and, on two occasions, to incorrect parts of patients’ bodies. Contract employees performing work on the roof of the center may also have been exposed to radiation levels greater than public dose limits.

The medical center, located in State College, paid its fines earlier this month and has taken corrective action. The center is in the process of hiring an additional management position to provide more oversight of the radiation therapists in the oncology department. DEP will continue to monitor the corrective actions and will increase the frequency of inspections to ensure no further radiological health and safety. If you believe that you were inadvertently delivered a dose of radiation, or delivered radiation to the wrong part of your body, or improperly exposed to doses of radiation, contact the Levensten Law Firm to protect your rights.

We are investigating whether certain trucking companies may be systematically shortchanging their drivers by calculating these mileage figures in an arbitrary and inaccurate manner, such as by reference to the Household Mover’s Guide and other mileage charts.  It has been reported that certain publications may be used by some trucking companies measure mileage between cities based on arbitrarily designated physical locations, rather than based on the actual distance to a delivery location.  As a result, certain trucking companies may be systematically underpaying their drivers.

We are investigating whether calculating the mileage figures in a manner other than by reference to the “actual” miles driven amounts to a breach of the uniform employment contract with the trucking company.  If you know of a truck driver who may have been under-compensated based on improper mileage calculations by their employer, please do no hesitate to call the Levensten Law Firm.
