New York Law Journal | Analysis
By David A. Katz and Laura A. McIntosh | July 24, 2019

By John C. Coffee Jr. | July 17, 2019
In his Corporate Securities column, John C. Coffee Jr. writes: It has been nearly 60 years since the SEC first clearly prohibited insider trading in its 1961 decision in 'In re Cady, Roberts & Co.' You would think that would be long enough for the doctrinal rules to have become reasonably clear. Think again! The recent evidence shows otherwise.

By Philip Berkowitz | July 10, 2019
In his Employment Issues column, Philip Berkowitz writes: In the current regulatory environment, employers must anticipate that more, not less, government and regulatory authorities will impose increasingly scrupulous obligations to ensure the existence of rules and procedures safeguarding the rights of whistleblowers and assuring that employers promote lawful, ethical conduct, while screening for unlawful conduct.

In their Taxation column, David E. Kahen and Elliot Pisem discuss 'McNely v. Commissioner', a recent Tax Court memorandum decision which sustained an IRS determination that no theft loss was allowable, and provides some useful lessons as to traps for the unwary in this context.

By Joseph M. McLaughlin and Shannon K. McGovern | June 12, 2019
In their Corporate Litigation column, Joseph M. McLaughlin and Shannon K. McGovern discuss the Delaware Court of Chancery's decision in 'City of Tamarac Firefighters' Pension Tr. Fund v. Corvi', which reminds practitioners of the steep burden facing a derivative plaintiff seeking to plead that a board wrongfully refused its pre-litigation demand and provides guidance on several recurring aspects of board responses to demands
New York Law Journal | Analysis
By Barbara M. Goodstein | June 5, 2019
In her Secured Transactions column, Barbara M. Goodstein discusses 'In re Aegean Marine Petroleum Network', which attempts to send a clear message to lenders and other non-debtors in the bankruptcy process that the road to non-consensual third-party releases, even in a jurisdiction that will allow them, is not easily traveled

By Sandra Stern | May 29, 2019
Investors have long been accustomed to borrowing to finance the purchase of securities. Therefore, they may assume that the rules are the same when borrowing to buy virtual currency. Unfortunately, this is not the case at the moment.

By David A. Katz and Laura A. McIntosh | May 22, 2019
Corporate Governance columnists David A. Katz and Laura A. McIntosh discuss the "benefit corporation"—an increasingly available corporate form in which profit and social purpose can be combined, and business conducted, in a transparent and integrated way. The popularity of legislative efforts allowing the establishment of benefit corporations reflects the current cultural momentum behind the idea that corporations should be engines of good as well as profit.

By John C. Coffee Jr. | May 15, 2019
In his Corporate Securities column, John C. Coffee Jr. writes: Everyone knows that 'Morrison v. National Australia Bank' ended the ability of those who purchased or sold securities outside the United States to participate in U.S. class actions. Everyone knows this—and therefore, unsurprisingly, it turns out to be not quite true. As usual, people miss the exceptions to generalizations that they think are universal rules. In fact, there are at least two routes that permit a foreign purchaser to participate in a U.S. class action. Neither has been much exploited to date, but both may be pushed aggressively in the near future.
