Anthony Held and John Moore--clients of The Chanler Group--served seven 60-Day Notices of Proposition 65 Violation last week.  The notices were served to companies offering products such as pillows, hand tools, and sports equipment for sale in California containing chemicals known to cause cancer or reproductive harm, without the required health hazard warning.  TCG's citizen enforcers allege that the companies' products contain the phthalate DEHP and the heavy metal lead (Pb).  DEHP and lead are known to cause birth defects and reproductive harm.  Some of the noticed companies include Ross Stores, Reebok International Ltd., and Tuesday Morning.

See below for a partial list of Notices.
