Corporate Governance
: The Race to the BottomStockman (et al) Indictment Dismissed
By J. Robert Brown
The Government announced today that it is dismissing the criminal case against David Stockman and the other three defendants. According to the nolle prosequi filed today, the Government made the decision after a "renewed assessment of the evidence" including "information acquired after filing the indictment". As a result, further prosecution would not be "in the interests of justice."
The Race to the Bottom has followed the prosecution and has many of the filings in the case (including the nolle prosequi order) posted on the DU Corporate Governance web site.
