FEDERAL JUDGE RULES IN MOTHERS FAVOR IN COERCED CHILD DRUGGING CASE

White Plains, New York: Federal District Judge Conner

Motion to Dismiss Denied.

United States Federal Judge of the Southern District of New York,
Judge William Conner, has ruled coerced child drugging case will
stay in federal court. Senior District Judge denies motion to
dismiss.

On August 7, 2002 little 12 year-old Michael Mozers horror story
of school officials forcing him To take a cocktail of drugs that
turned him into a psychotic who heard voices in his head hit the
front cover of the New York Post. School officials, Who went so
far as to file a medical-neglect and child-abuse complaint against
his mother with the State's Department of Children and Family
Services after she stopped the medication, have lost their plea to
have the case dismissed.

New Jersey lawyer Alan Milstein of Sherman, Silverstein, Kohl, Rose
& Podolsky (www.sskrplaw.com) is handling this high profile case.
Milstein raises the issue of informed consent and the claims that
parents are not being provided with all information regarding the
subjective nature of an ADHD diagnosis, alternatives to medication,
and drug risks, among others. Milsteins focus is also on the
constitutional rights of the child.

Both the school and doctors attorney filed motion to have the legal
action dismissed earlier this year. In an eleven page opinion and
order of July, 2, 2003, Judge Conner ruled that this boys case will
indeed be heard in federal court, officially dismissing the schools
and physicians attempts to get it thrown out.

This case has a national impact and has the power to reform the
broken system of labeling and drugging children within the public
education system.

No child should endure what Michael Mozer has been through. With
more and more legal cases pending, this should serve as a wake up
call to ensure our children will not be trafficked into behavioral
drug use through the public education system, Sheila Matthews,
National Vice President www.ablechild.org.

The sweeping trend of States passing laws to prevent forced drugging
in the public schools, and Congress passing similar legislation in
the form of the Child Medication Safety Act of 2003 with a margin
of 425 to 1, has led Senator John Ensign of Nevada to sponsor this
Act in the Senate.
