Second Circuit Defines Reach of the Work Product Immunity for Corporate Counsel The full reach of the attorney-client privilege and the work product immunity to the activities of corporate counsel has long been of vital importance and some debate. The attorney will often be an officer of the corporation, and will have responsibilities that mix legal advice with business judgment. Nonetheless, the corporation's need to have its business decisions informed by an understanding of the applicable law is essential. In this era of complex government regulation, an ill-informed misstep by corporate officers or employees can have severe civil and criminal consequences for the corporation.

Compliance Avoid or Mitigate Penalties Through a Compliance Program B Y J A LDEN L INCOLN Federal indictments of companies have jumped tenfold of late from about 40 per year in the early 1980s to more than 400 nationwide, and state indictments also have increased. Intensified enforcement of "white collar crime" laws as well the implementation of the Federal Sentencing Guidelines (the "Guidelines") is increasing the need for companies to implement internal compliance programs. Many of the indicted companies operate legitimate businesses whose normal activities have run them afoul of laws and regulations. Such laws may cover matters such as environmental protection, foreign sales, federal and state government procurement, medical device and drug testing and marketing, and the like. A company that implements an effective compliance program under the Guidelines and cooperates with law enforcement agencies will suffer less severe penalties in the event of a criminal indictment than a company with no such program. Fines may be reduced by as much as 90%, and the company may avoid court supervised compliance. In addition, directors and managers of corporations may avoid being singled out for discipline or personal liability. The Corporate Counsel Quarterly reported recently that 15 out of 16 state attorneys general afford more lenient treatment to companies that employ effective compliance programs. On the federal level, the mitigation incentives under the Guidelines require judges to credit companies for effective compliance in determining sentences to be imposed for any number of criminal violations.

Alabama Alaska Arizona Arkansas ... Resources This chapter outlines how the criminal justice system operates and describes the most serious criminal violationsfelonies and white collar crime. It also includes information about the rights of persons accused of crimes and the rights of crime victims. Domestic abuse is discussed in the Family Law Chapter. Criminal procedure is covered in the Process of a Lawsuit Chapter and private causes of action that result from criminal conduct are covered in the Personal Injury Law Chapters. Finally, misdemeanors and driving-while-intoxicated violations are covered in the Chapter. Criminal Codes Criminal law defines conduct that is prohibited by the government and the range of penalties that can be imposed for violating these laws. Persons who violate criminal laws incur penalties including fines, imprisonment and, in some states such as Texas, execution. All crimes are defined by statutes, which are organized into books of rules known as criminal or penal codes. The federal government has a criminal code that regulates certain crimes nationwide, and the Texas criminal statutes are collected into the Texas Penal Code. Most criminal activity violates either a state law or a federal law, not both; an important exception is drug crimes, which can be prosecuted in either state or federal court or both. Every crime is defined by a list of elements. In a criminal trial, the prosecutor attempts to prove all the elements of the crime the person is accused of committing. If the judge or the jury decides all the elements of the crime have been proven, the accused person is guilty of the crime. If the prosecutor cannot prove all the elements, the accused will not be found guilty of the crime.

NAMES IN THE NEWS White Collar Crime Spree One in three U.S. households is now the victim of white collar crime, according to new research conducted by the National White Collar Crime Center. The findings also reveal a growing public concern with the seriousness of white collar crime and the criminal justice system's ability to control it. The survey, which was conducted between January and April 1999 by the Training and Research Institute of the National White Collar Crime Center in Morgantown, West Virginia, is the first of its kind in nearly two decades. Findings from the report show that during a 12-month period, one in every three households (36 percent) was victimized by a form of white collar crime. With regard to perceptions of the seriousness of white collar crime, the survey dispels early work that indicated the public was not concerned about fraud and white collar crime affecting them. The research shows that the public now views certain white collar crime offenses as equal to or more serious than certain traditional street crimes. The Center asked: Which is more serious, armed robbery causing serious injury, or neglecting to recall a vehicle that results in a serious injury? Forty-eight percent said armed robbery, 39 percent said defective products and 13 percent said "equal."

White Collar Crimes Most people think about thugs and hoodlums as the typical criminal. Our jails are full of poorly educated young men whose violent crimes are constantly flashed across our TV screens and written about in our newspapers. The big-time criminals, the ones who do not get caught, wear three-piece suits and use computers, lawyers, and accountants to separate people from their money. About 20,000 murders are reported to police in an average year. “Nonviolent” white collar criminals probably kill many more people than all the violent street criminals put together. By virtually any criterion, white collar crime is our most serious crime problem. Although it may be impossible to determine exactly how many people are killed and injured annually because white collar crimes, the claim that such crimes are harmless, nonviolent offenses is not true. Business criminals are attracted by stock market scams, fraud, price-fixing, kickbacks, and the making and selling of dangerous goods. James Coleman views white collar crime as “violations of law committed in the course of a legitimate occupation or financial pursuit by persons who hold respected positions in their communities.” Coleman also states that crimes “. . . committed for the benefit of the individual criminal without organizational support and organizational crimes committed with support from an organization that is, at least in part, furthering its own ends” are also white collar crimes. Confusing the issue even more, he listed rent code violations by landlords, political corruption, embezzlement, employee theft, illegal acts by government workers, and stealing by dock workers as white collar crimes.

Various criminal subprograms within the White Collar Crime Program include: PUBLIC CORRUPTION HEALTH CARE FRAUD FINANCIAL INSTITUTION FRAUD FRAUD AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT INSURANCE FRAUD TELEMARKETING FRAUD ENVIRONMENTAL CRIMES Back to Top Return to Investigative Programs Return to Little Rock Listings PUBLIC CORRUPTION Public Corruption is a breach of public trust by elected and appointed public servants at all levels of government, local, state, and federal, who ask, demand, solicit, seek, accept, receive, or agree to receive anything of value in return for being influenced in the performance of any official act. Public Corruption is the number one criminal priority within the Little Rock Division's White Collar Crime Program. Corruption in government destroys the public's confidence and erodes the foundation of our society. Public Corruption schemes are very secretive and often are made by under-the-table deals. Little Rock FBI values assistance from the public in detecting and uncovering allegations of Public Corruption. Back to Top Return to Investigative Programs Return to Little Rock Listings HEALTH CARE FRAUD Little Rock FBI has the authority to investigate all forms of fraud and abuse affecting both government sponsored (Medicare and Medicaid) and private insured health benefit programs. Nationally, it is estimated that Americans will spend more than $1 trillion a year on health care and that ten percent or $100 billion is attributed to fraud or abuse. This fraud and abuse contribute to higher taxes and insurance premiums for every American and could lead to the endangerment of the insured. The type of health care providers who commit these fraud schemes encompass all areas of health care, including hospitals, home health care, ambulance services, doctors, chiropractors, psychiatric hospitals, laboratories, pharmacies, and nursing homes. Types of fraud include kickbacks, billing for services not rendered, billing for unnecessary equipment, and billing for services performed by a lesser qualified person.

7. White Collar Crime Over two decades ago, Congressman John Conyers, the distinguished Democratic chairman of the US Congress House Committee on the Judiciary, invited me to assist in drafting legislation and to testify on white collar crime, as defined by 'nondisclosure of certain matters by certain business entities and personnel', in relation to environmental and health concerns (Epstein, 1979). Congressman Conyers' bill, which urged criminal penalties including imprisonment, for such corporate crimes, was presented to Congress on July 26, 1979. However, its passage was blocked by Republican committee members, and has not since been reintroduced. In testimony on this proposed legislation, I stated (Epstein, 1979): In the absence of such legislative disincentives, environmental and health safety white collar crime has continued unabated and extended into global markets. Such misconduct which I have investigated over three decades, and published in peer reviewed scientific journals and otherwise publicised, include: Suppression and manipulation by Vesicol Chemical Company of the carcinogenic and other chronic toxic effects of the pesticides chlordane and heptachlor which have been extensively used for termite treatment of wood (Epstein, 1990).

Mr Pallag had no compunctions about ruffling the feathers of the VPOP (the Customs and Excise Board's National Headquarters) either, casting suspicion on its officials for having postponed indefinitely their investigations into the oil-related fraud cases he had informed them of some years previously. Once again, the reply was furnished in the glare of a TV studio (news is quick to go stale and the attention span of the average viewer is presumed to be short). Mafia hit Magyar Nemzet , 14 October 1999]. "The rapid growth of corruption...places us in a new situation qualitatively. If half of the colleagues questioned feel that the police are corruptible, there is serious cause for concern." Such a statement is not attributable to a lack of self-esteem or poor self-image on the part a not inconsiderable section of the police force. It is a gut reaction shared by many ordinary Hungarians, who instinctively side with Tibor Karancsi, regardless of the ultimate truth of his interpretation of events in Szeghalom, because it corroborates their own observations and experiences. For many, no further proof of guilt is required, the case is closed.

40. White-Collar Crime Victims And The Issue Of Trust: Spalek al. 1994). The general finding in these studies is that whitecollarcrime has little, if any, effect upon victims' trust. However http://www.britsoccrim.org/bccsp/vol04/spalek.html

White-Collar Crime Victims and the Issue of Trust Basia Spalek Abstract This paper presents the results of a study exploring relationships of trust and distrust between the offender, the victims, regulators and the wider financial system in a particular case of white-collar crime. Individuals whose pension fund assets were defrauded by Robert Maxwell were interviewed in order to examine the consequences of financial crime and mismanagement upon the construction of trust towards financial investment. Results reveal that individuals manage the risks posed by financial crime and mismanagement through complex, yet routine, perceptions of trust and distrust, which may be profoundly influenced by an experience of victimisation. Introduction Trust Fukuyama (1996) argues that modern economic life entails a minimum level of trust, where trust is defined as: The expectation that arises within a community of regular, honest and co-operative behaviour, based on commonly shared norms, on the part of other members of that community (Fukuyama: 1996: 26).
