After being on the defensive for 20 straight legal attacks, we filed suit yesterday against the corporation that owns TEAM.
We filed suit because the single legal case we brought (and won) in this matter listed Orrin Woodward as a defendant—but Woodward then claimed to have magically disappeared as the manager of TEAM before the case […]

We were back in court in Grand Rapids today, seeking a contempt motion that would have halted a planned TEAM meeting in Louisville.
We don’t have the ruling yet—we’ll post it when we do—but the judge said he would not stop the meeting.
Not what we wanted to hear.
But it was one motion, and one meeting.
Orrin Woodward […]

The dismissal deals a severe blow to Orrin Woodward’s federal class-action legal attack. Woodward and other plaintiffs cynically claimed that Quixtar was an illegal pyramid scheme in an attempt to avoid their contractual obligations, embarrass the company […]

We respect perspectives. But they can’t hide facts.
First, the “new” Texas case mentioned in “Spaghetti.” This was a brand new case, with TEAM as the plaintiffs, attacking from a whole different angle than they did in California case. Dismissed.
The “other” Texas case: Simmons et al v. Quixtar will be heard de novo – “from […]

Several items hit the office inbox this week that we thought were worth sharing.
One, from our Amway Europe management, is a good summary of the excitement of our UK relaunch and also a good update on other matters in the market. We’re posting that note at the Amway Media Blog.

We were in court today for yet another lawsuit.
And walked away grateful for another win.
This time, TEAM attacked us in McKinney, Texas, with yet another pile of overheated allegations. (We’ll provide document links later, when we are home from the road.)
Now, if you are asking yourself why TEAM – a Michigan-based company with Michigan-based executives […]
