Letter from Philip Monson to Theodore Roosevelt
Philip Monson discusses how a former employee, Charles F. Meyer, brought a suit against his company using the lawyers of the Legal Aid Society. Meyer has sufficient financial means to employ his own lawyers, and Monson believes he filed charges because he did not have to pay. Monson does not think this is a fair use of the Society’s resources. This is not the first questionable experience Monson has had with the Society. Monson brings this to Theodore Rosoevelt’s attention as he is the organization’s honorary vice president.
