March 6-13, 2026
A federal lawsuit claims dozens of foreign companies are selling counterfeit James Dean products online in the United States. But Tom Murphy reports for The Indiana Lawyer that experts say a resolution won’t be easy in the shadowy, fast-paced world of e-commerce. The defendants, some of whom can’t even be identified, probably will never respond or appear in court. They may just disappear from online marketplaces only to reemerge later. Also, Greg Weaver reports that consumers, egg processors and retailers have filed six lawsuits since November just in the U.S. District Court of Southern Indiana against Seymour-based Rose Acre Farms and the four other top egg producers. The complaints allege that the producers manipulated the market to raise prices to a record high average of $6.23 a dozen for Grade A Large eggs in March 2025.
