Jonathan Emord to take another fight with the FDA on Electroshock Devices

By Dino Mustafić

Attorney Jonathan Emord and his co-counsel Kendrick Moxon have added to their Citizen Petition of August 2016, against the FDA’s Proposed Order to reclassify and make more readily available the Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) Device used to give “shock-treatment.” The reclassification would make it easier for doctors to give the treatment, which – pointed out by Emord & Associates, P.C – is well-known as the punishment given actor Jack Nicholson in the movie One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.
