Section Meeting: The FBI and the Mob - 5/13/08 Click here to RSVP for this meeting Time & Place Tuesday, May 13, 2008 12:15 pm Boston Bar Association 16 Beacon Street Sponsors Senior Lawyers Section Litigation Section Civil Rights & Civil Liberties Section Solo & Small Firm Section Please join Juliane Balliro, WolfBlock, and Victor Garo, two of the attorneys who secured a $101.75 million judgment against the federal government in the malicious prosecution case of Limone v. United States, 497 F. Supp. 2d 143 (D. Mass. 2007), appeal pending, as they discuss the legal and personal issues that they confronted in litigating it. Background: Nearly 40 years ago, four alleged organized crime figures were convicted of murder based upon the false testimony of an FBI informant. Of the four of them, two were sentenced to death. Two died in prison, and two others lived long enough to see their convictions vacated. After a decades-long effort and a 22-day bench trial before the Honorable Nancy Gertner, their attorneys obtained civil relief for them. The Solo and Small Firm Section provides information and resources to lawyers who practice either by themselves or in firms with fewer than ten lawyers. In its efforts to help solo and small firm practitioners maximize opportunities for success, the section concentrates on three areas: management, marketing and technology. Its monthly gatherings usually feature a guest speaker and opportunities for discussion |
