The White Collar Crime Conference will have a full program that includes several “ethics” and “skills” sessions to satisfy the CLE requirements of all state bars. The much-acclaimed panels of United States District Judges, general counsel of leading corporations, and of the Directors of Enforcement of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, as well as senior representatives of the Department of Justice Criminal Division will all return. In addition, on Friday morning, distinguished speakers will explore the ethical issues and challenges that have confronted prosecutors and defense counsel in recent high-profile white collar crime cases.

Rebecca Ricigliano will be speaking on the panel, "Brady - How to Actually Get it All." Panelists will explain what constitutes Brady evidence and examine the most effective ways to successfully obtain Brady evidence from the government, including the timing and content of the initial request, motions that should be filed, timing for involving the court, and the record to create in order to be useful if a conviction were to occur.

Tom Hanusik will be speaking on the panel, "Securities Enforcement – New Priorities and Expectations." This panel will examine the recent trend in securities enforcement, including the government’s agenda with respect to financial fraud generally and in the capital markets, SPACs, ESG disclosures for public issuers and asset managers, retail trading platforms, corporate disclosures regarding cyberbreaches.

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today: In 1997, the California Supreme Court decided Buss v. Superior Court. In Buss, the court concluded that a liability insurer that defended a mixed action could seek reimbursement from the insured for the defense costs associated with the claims that were not even potentially covered. Since then, numerous courts have held that insurers are entitled to recoup their defense costs associated with uncovered claims or causes of action. On the other hand, a significant number of courts have rejected insurers’ right to recoupment, at least in the absence of a policy provision granting the insurer that right. Some commentators have even suggested that the current judicial trend might be away from permitting insurers to recoup their defense costs. Is that correct? Has the Buss stopped? This panel of coverage experts will analyze insurers’ claimed right to recoupment today, and offer their perspectives on what the law on recoupment should perhaps be and might be in the future.
