No Damages in Suit vs. SEC

By Mark H. Astarita, Esq.

I didn't want to be the first to say it, but now that Professor Chemerinksy of UC Irvine School of Law has said it out loud, there is no stopping me - it seems that no one sees a viable suit for money damages against the SEC for the Madoff Mess. There just isn't a statute or rule of law that would support such a suit.Not to mention sovereign immunity. Remember, you can't sue the King.I wish Howard all the luck in the world with this one.
