OMB Directs Agencies to Prepare for Sequestration
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 12.12.12
OMB has recently issued internal guidance directing agencies to begin preparing for sequestration, prompting numerous agencies to reveal their intent to furlough employees, reduce office hours, and scale back or eliminate contracts should budget cuts occur as scheduled in January 2013. While the White House denied that the guidance signals pessimism about a budget deal, and events over the weekend suggest that the broad outlines of an agreement are coming together, the release of the guidance nonetheless recognizes that the time remaining for negotiating a resolution to avoid sequestration is growing short.

Important EU Court Judgment Clarifies Rules on Interest Due in Cartel Damages Cases
In a judgment that will have direct and immediate consequences, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) has clarified that for all competition damages actions brought after 26 December 2014, interest runs from the date on which the harm occurred. The ruling addressed two important questions: (1) whether national provisions implementing Article 3(2) of the EU Damages Directive — which requires interest to run from the date harm occurred —apply to cases in which the harm preceded the adoption of those provisions; and (2) how the date of harm should be determined in cartel cases involving the purchase of goods at inflated prices.
