Judge Refuses to Dismiss Criminal Charge Against NY Firm
The New York Law Jourman - March 31, 2008
LOS ANGELES (AP) - A federal judge has refused to dismiss a money laundering conspiracy charge against a law firm accused in a lucrative kickback scheme. Following a hearing on Monday, U.S. District Judge John Walter ruled the law firm formerly known as Milberg Weiss was correctly charged.
Prosecutors say payments were made to people to act as plaintiffs in class-action lawsuits targeting some of the largest corporations in the nation. Elizabeth Taylor, an attorney for the firm now known as Milberg, argued that the money laundering conspiracy charge was a separate offense from the alleged kickback scheme. Trial is scheduled for Aug. 12. Four current or former partners of the firm previously admitted criminal conduct.

It's not over yet, dear Melvyn. Melly, you really screwed this up big time, and for a lot people, you bastard.
Mel did the washing machines break down from over use? You should have had backups! Qui, Melvin what's with you? Mel do the right thing, rat everyone out, then you too can join team America. You really don't want to go to jail Mel, you know you don't have a chance.
