Frank C. Razzano to Moderate Panel at ABA's National Institute on White Collar Crime Conference - February 24-26, 2010

Wednesday, February 24, 2010

Pepper partner Frank C. Razzano will moderate a panel at the American Bar Association's 24th Annual National Institute on White Collar Crime. Mr. Razzano's panel will begin at 2:00 p.m. on Feb 24, "Application of Honest Services Mail Fraud in the Private Sector."

The honest services fraud statute was enacted by Congress in 1988 with virtually no legislative history. Since then, courts have struggled to define that statute by creating varying, contradictory and competing limitations. The Supreme Court has now taken cert in three cases – U.S. v. Black, U.S. v. Weyhrauch and Skilling v. U.S. Panelists will explore the various concepts involved and predict what may be expected from the Supreme Court.
