Venezuela President Nicolas Maduro and opposition leader Juan Guaido
The Big Law dispute over who represents the rightful leader of Venezuela has seemingly come to an end.
In a Monday court filing, Venable attorneys representing the government of Nicolas Maduro submitted a withdrawal of appearance notice in a U.S. federal court case.
