Criminal Defense
“Federal Appeals,” Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association, Federal Criminal Law Seminar, June 1987, December 1987; Appellate Seminar, August 1987.
Fraud
The Enron Barge case was the second trial by the Enron Task Force — the first case tried against individual defendants. This firm represented James Arthur Brown, the former head of Merrill Lynch’s Asset Leasing and Management. Unlike all other Enron cases, the government did not charge the Merrill defendants with securities fraud, but rather, prosecuted the case under an unprecedented use of the honest services provision of the wire fraud statute. The first case tried by the Enron Task Force, United States v. Arthur Andersen, LLP, was reversed by the Supreme Court in a unanimous decision.
White Collar Crimes
Financially motivated, nonviolent crime committed by business and government professionals. Typical white-collar crimes could include fraud, bribery, Ponzi schemes, insider trading, labor racketeering, embezzlement, cybercrime, copyright infringement, money laundering, identity theft, and forgery.
Theft
Embezzlement
Identity Theft
Forgery
Money Laundering
