Ever alert for new fields to plow, negligence lawyers have slapped malpractice suits on doctors, hospitals, even fellow lawyers. But they have long left virtually unfilled what could, theoretically, prove the most fertile field of all-malpractice suits by children against their own parents. Now one Tom Hansen, 24, of Boulder, Colo., is bringing what may be called a "serpent's tooth suit"* against his mother and father...
Institutionalized twice for mental care since he was 17, Hansen is demanding $250,000 in compensatory damages and $100,000 in punitive damages because, he claims, his parents neglected his needs for "food, clothing, shelter and psychological support." He also alleges that his parents, both scientists employed at Boulder's National Center for Atmospheric Research, not only tried "to channel me in the direction they wanted me to go" but also "spent nothing for what I wanted, nothing on music...
Scavullo's description of the new naturalism fits several tall, smashing models?Rene Russo, Lisa Taylor and Patti Hansen, a freckle-faced 21-year-old from Staten Island, whom he photographed nude for a 24-page story coming in the April Vogue.

He alleged that Fasi was to have received $500,000 disguised as campaign contributions from Hansen in exchange for the contract to build a $50 million city-sponsored condominium called Kukui Plaza; the mayor. Hansen said, had already received approximately...
Last month, however, Key Witness Hansen shattered the prosecution's case. Claiming that he had been coerced to testify and that he feared the evidence would be used against him in a federal case, Hansen refused to testify in court. Circuit Judge Toshimi Sodetani held Hansen in contempt, jailed him for two weeks, then brought him back to the witness stand last week. Again Hansen kept mum, and Prosecutor Cooper, a prominent Los Angeles defense attorney hired by Hawaii to handle the case, had no choice but to move for dismissal. Said Cooper to the court as Hansen...
