Imagine that a boss prepares a materially false statement and directs her employee (who knows the statement is false) to email it to investors. Is the employee liable as a “primary violator” under the securities laws, or does her conduct constitute at most secondary liability, i.e., aiding and abetting securities fraud? The U.S. Supreme Court held oral argument on Dec. 3, 2018 in Lorenzo v. SEC to answer that question and resolve an apparent Circuit split.

By Martin A. Schwartz | January 2, 2019
In his Section 1983 Litigation column, Martin A. Schwartz addresses the question of when may a supervisory official be held liable under 42 U.S.C. §1983 for the unconstitutional conduct of a subordinate?
