2nd Circuit Upholds Attorney's Conviction for Forgery

2nd Circuit Upholds Attorney's Conviction for Forgery, N.Y. L.J. (law.com), March 5, 2007. The forgery? A magistrate's signature on an order. Prosecutors said that the lawyer wanted to discredit his adversaries by making it look like they were responsible for the forgery. (The order purported to rule against Reich's side in a dispute and have the magistrate judge recuse herself.)

United States v. Reich, 06-1445 (2d Cir. March 2, 2007).
