Sun Shines on Select Law Firms

Five years ago, Sun Microsystems worked with about 400 outside law firms. In the last few months, Sun has dramatically pared down its roster of outside counsel to nine firms that handle all its routine work. Apart from the cost-cutting and organizational motivations, Sun GC Michael Dillon says the law firm business has changed.

Whistle While You Work

If 2004's summer associates had a collective motto, it might be the comment by an intern at Pittsburgh's Buchanan Ingersoll: "I loved coming to work every day." In the 2004 Summer Associates Survey, this year's crop of soon-to-be lawyers positively gushed over how much they liked their firms, their work and the lawyers they worked with. There was little angst voiced this year about getting an offer. Instead, summers knew what they wanted and felt more confident that they would get it.

L.A. Judge Rejects Defense Challenge to Prosecution's Definition of 'Foreign Official' Under FCPA

For plaintiff:
For defendant:
Case number:

Given that 60 percent of the DOJ's FCPA enforcement actions last year involved alleged bribes to employees of state-owned companies, a lot was riding on Lindsey Manufacturing's argument that Congress didn't intend those employees to be considered foreign officials under FCPA.
