Involvement With Litigation
The Roe Conn show took a call on March 28, 2006, from a small-business owner who claimed to have spoken with a juror about the trial of former governor George Ryan. This possible juror misconduct was one of the bases for appeal in Ryan's conviction on criminal charges of corruption.
Conn testified for the plaintiff at a civil proceeding involving his former on-air partner Garry Meier. In the suit, Meier's former manager Todd Musburger said he was owed money for work related to contract negotiations. Conn's testimony contradicted that of Meier, and the jury sided with Musburger.

Famous quotes containing the word involvement:
“In the planning and designing of new communities, housing projects, and urban renewal, the planners both public and private, need to give explicit consideration to the kind of world that is being created for the children who will be growing up in these settings. Particular attention should be given to the opportunities which the environment presents or precludes for involvement of children with persons both older and younger than themselves.”
—Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
