More Ian Norris - 3rd Circuit Appeals brief on whether outside counsel can serve as a "conduit" to the grand jury of a false statement
Posted by D. Daniel Sokol
There is an interesting crim law - antitrust intersection development in the Ian Norris case. See the recent story in Corporate Counsel Magazine. The policy question is whether an outside counsel can serve as a "conduit" to the grand jury of a false statement. That is, is any omission of a fact to your defense attorney equivalent to false testimony before the grand jury?
