Where

Penthouse at Hamilton Square

The American Bar Association Criminal Justice Section and the ABA Center for Continuing Legal Education Present a 90-Minute Live Webinar and Live Program

The Africa Sting cases were heralded as the largest FCPA sting operation in history, yielding 19 indictments against 22 individuals. At the time it was the latest and certainly one of the most high profile prosecutions in the new era of FCPA enforcement. In just 90 minutes our expert co-chairs, Tom Gorman of Dorsey & Whitney LLP and Frank Razzano of Pepper Hamilton LLP will answer the following questions: Should the DOJ and the SEC reevaluate their approach and prosecution standards? Can enforcement officials continue with their ever increasing expansion of the FCPA’s statutory language and reach? Have corporate fines and settlements gotten so out of control that they are actually a disincentive to selfreporting and cooperation?
