Russia vs. Bank of New York

ADVERTISEMENTS

This case sounds like a script from a far fetched legal thriller.  Russia is suing the Bank of New York in a Russian (and allegedly corrupt) court, asserting RICO violations and claiming damages in excess of 20 billion dollars.  The case is full of well-known legal experts, including Alan Dershowitz, former Attorney General Dick Thornburgh, and former federal judge Abner Mikva.  Professor Dershowitz is one of a number of experts for Russia. 

Thanks to Columbia Professor Bill Simon for the pointer.
