    Considering China has some of the worst corruption in the world, you can bet that these are just the poorly connected lakeys who got caught. Last I heard, the government was actively discoraging people from starting a lawsuit against these companies.

    And you've got your finger on the button in China right? Given your hatred of all things Chinese, I find that highly dubious...

    Its amazing how they rant and rave about the "liberal justice system" handing out only slaps on the wrist and post about wanting the death penalty enacted for just about anything more serious the theft over $1000 yet they vilify those countries that have the exact justice system they want installed here.

    Never forget, Communists are big believers in 'pour encourgez le autres'.

    The sentence does not surprise me. I'm more surprised that they spent so long on the case.

    China Court Refuses to Accept Tainted Milk Lawsuit
    Chinese Court Refuses to Accept Lawsuit Seeking Compensation for Victims of Tainted Milk
    By HENRY SANDERSON Associated Press Writer
    BEIJING December 8, 2008 (AP)

    A court on Monday refused to accept a lawsuit filed against a Chinese dairy by dozens of families who said their children were sickened or killed by tainted milk, lawyers involved in the case said.

    The 63 defendants in the first-known group lawsuit stemming from the scandal, including the parents of two children who died, were seeking nearly 14 million yuan ($2 million) in compensation from state-owned Sanlu Group Co., Beijing-based lawyer Xu Zhiyong said.

    The dairy based in the northern Chinese city of Shijiazhuang was at the center of China's worst food safety crisis in years, in which six babies are believed to have died and nearly 300,000 became sick with urinary problems after drinking infant formula tainted with the industrial chemical melamine.

    Three of six defense lawyers presented the suit to the Hebei Supreme Court's registry office on Monday but were told it could not be accepted because government departments were still investigating.

    I did't come from the Official Chinese party news organ but I guess ABC news is good enough for you? The path is not finished but I'll bet that lawsuit is as dead as the 2009 commection of lead painted Thomas the Tank Engine chew toys.

    Fuck you too bigot.

    Everyone here know's as well as I do that you didn't bother with a search for anything until after I called your racist ass out.

    From your own fucking source;

    So that doesn't mean it won't be accepted, just that it's still being investigated. I really find it interesing that you didn't post this source;

    Victims of Tainted Milk File Lawsuit in China's High Court

    Six weeks newer, but that one doesn't support your claims, now does it.

    More typical BS from the resident hack...
