Madoff Trustee Irving H. Picard Mentioned in Law360 in Connection with California Attorney General Lawsuit

A January 5 Law360 article, "Madoff Trustee Tries To Stop Calif. AG Lawsuit," details SIPA Trustee Irving H. Picard's lawsuit against California Attorney General Kamala Harris and others filed in United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.

Baker Hostetler Counsel, on behalf of the SIPA Trustee, filed a 22-page complaint alleging that lawsuits waged by Harris and others against the estate and related entities threaten the orderly liquidation of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC and could diminish the pool of assets recovered for Madoff's defrauded customers.

The article also mentioned Baker Hostetler Partner David J. Sheehan, lead counsel to the SIPA Trustee for the global representation for the liquidation of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC, as well as Partners Marc E. Hirschfield, Tracy L. ColeDeborah H. Renner and Associate Ferve E. Ozturk.
