Buried deep within White House press releases and proclamations is a rare link to the 9/11 lawsuits. For those who lost loved ones that fateful fall day, it’s seen as a small act of bureaucratic kindness.

www.whitehouse.gov: The law, signed by the president this past Thursday, reads …

S. 2106, the “Procedural Fairness for September 11 Victims Act of 2007,” which provides for nationwide service of subpoenas in litigation arising out of the hijacking and subsequent crashes of the terrorist-related flights of September 11, 2001.
