Conviction Vacated, Suspension Vacated

The Delaware Supreme Court vacated an interim suspension order entered after the attorney was convicted of feloniy offenses involving conspiracy, securities fraud, false statements to the SEC and mail fraud.

The conviction was vacated by the Second Circuit and remanded for a new trial. The government then filed a consent motion for a deferred prosecution continuance and will dismiss the indictment with prejudice if the attorney complies with his obligations under the agreement.

The order here removes the disciplinary sanction and returns the attorney to inactive status. (Mike Frisch)
