A retired judge will mediate a meeting between Michael Richards and the four black men that he targeted in a tirade of racial slurs during a comedy club performance.
Michael is slated to apologize in person to the men. The judge will also help determine if other actions should take place to resolve the matter such as a cash settlement. A time and place for the meeting has yet to be set.
Lawyer, Howard J. Rubenstein, who represents Richards says “My client Michael hopes to put it behind him,”
Attorney Gloria Allred said Richards should meet with her clients “to hear the pain that he inflicted on them and to apologize to them.”
Richards, who played the wacky neighbor Kramer on “Seinfeld,” has been on a campaign of contrition since his outburst at the Laugh Factory nightclub.
Madonna will not be daunted by an imminent challenge to her Malawian adoption of a young boy. She insists that she has “no problem” with the legal action. A judge in the baby David Banda’s homeland ruled that his 18 month interim adoption could be challenged bya coalition of 67 human rights groups.
Members of the human rights coalition claim the Malawian government fast tracked the adoption process for the singer and her husband Guy Ritchie, and state that intra-country adoptions are not allowed in the African nation.
Madonna’s Malawian lawyer Alan Chinula says, “They, Madonna and Ritchie, called me from London and I explained to them the ruling. They have no problem with the ruling and are also willing to sit back and wait.”
He added of the coalition’s suit, “It’s good for the law. Let’s build the law, let the court hear other views. It’s not Madonna using an antiquated law, we followed the law to the letter in the adoption process, but it’s just a bad law.”
