US v. Stockman: Discovery Issues Resolved

By J. Robert Brown

The Stockman case has involved millions of document (fifteen million to be semi-precise).  The fight over discovery in contrast has involved a relatively modest number.  According to an order filed in early Novemember, the government has conceded one discovery issue and agreed to provide:

• (1)  the entire set of interview memoranda from the 2005 Audit Committee Investigation, and (2) the notes of witnesses interviewed during the Government's investigation.

The next status conference in the case is scheduled for January 21, at 10:00 am.  At the conference, "Defendants will be expected to advise the Court as to the status of discovery."

The order, along with other primary material, is posted on the DU Corporate Governance web site.
