== Complaint ==
The complaint argued that Daniel J. Krimsky is not a doctor or medical practitioner. He presented himself as a "certified" mohel, in spite of not having the skill or training to perform [[Brit Milah| circumcisions]]. Krimsky's attempt at hiding the damage was only uncovered by a physician present in the event.
[[Mogen ]] was also named a defendant in this case for product liability, failure to warn and breach of warranty. The instructional brochure included with the clamp falsely stated that "No injury to the [[glans ]] is possible because of beveled under edge and narrow aperture".<ref>{{REFweb

Under general anesthesia, doctors re-covered the shaft with the [[skin]] remaining in the specimen and re-anastomosed the [[glans penis]] using a micro-surgical technique. However, the operation was not a complete success. Over the next two weeks, part of the glans became [[Necrosis| necrotic]] and black and was removed, including most of the [[shaft skin|skin of the shaft]]. As a result, L.G. no longer has a glans penis. When L.G. is older, it may be necessary to release the penile [[shaft skin]] and perform a [[skin]] graft in order for L.G. to have the best penile function possible under the circumstances. Although doctors project that L.G. will be able to have sexual intercourse and reproduce, the sexual experience will not be the same as if he had a [[glans penis]].<ref>{{REFweb

U.S. District Judge Jack B. Weinstein ordered that [[Mogen| Mogen Circumcision Instruments ]] of New York be forced to pay $10.8 million in compensatory and punitive damages to L. G. and his parents, Dror Gerges and Sivan Gerges, in 2010. It is unknown if L. G. or his parents will ever collect on the judgement as Mogen Circumcision Instruments of New York was already in default in 2010, after having been forced to pay a $7.5 million to a plaintiff from a 2007 lawsuit. Rabbi Krimsky agreed to pay the family an undisclosed amount of money. The plaintiffs' attorney was [[David J. Llewellyn]].<ref>{{REFweb
