In late 2010, "New" Merck removed the state court case, to federal court, in Maryland -- as is its right, under existing law. But buried somewhere in the Maryland state court archives, is the older suit -- presumably filed prior to the bust-up's closing date -- November 3, 2009.<br /><br />I will report back -- but the one depicted lists her Merck/Schering-Plough experience in the past tense (on LinkedIn, and Bespoke) -- she ended all relations with either company in March 2010.<br /><br />It is also possible (but not entirely likely) that "New" Merck had hired her, post the bust-up's close, but let her go, by March of 2010.<br /><br />I'll update when I know more, or hear from the involved parties.<br /><br />Namastecondorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11014613306197942748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241416962008169508.post-41807904681941009242011-01-11T13:54:34.818-05:002011-01-11T13:54:34.818-05:00The law suit seems to indicate she worked for Merc...The law suit seems to indicate she worked for Merck; I think you identified a former SP rep with the same nameAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
