This document compares the ethics pledges and revolving door policies of the Obama and Trump administrations. It notes that both administrations issued executive orders placing restrictions on registered lobbyists joining the government. However, the Obama administration only allowed waivers under limited circumstances if denying the waiver would go against the purpose or be against the public interest, while the Trump administration set no standard for granting waivers. The document was presented by Kathleen Clark at the Council on Government Ethics Laws conference in Toronto on December 5, 2017.

This presentation compares the relative lack of innovation in law with the record of robust innovation in other fields, and describe how ethics standards restricting the unauthorized practice of law, non-lawyer ownership of law firms (Model Rule 5.4(b), (d)), and sharing of legal fees with non-lawyers (Model Rule 5.4(a) are holding back innovation. In other fields, industrial scale production creates commoditized products and services at radically lowered per-unit costs, greatly increasing the number of people who can afford those products and services. (Compare the high price of bespoke clothing with the low price of off-the-rack manufactured clothes.) By contrast, a significant portion of legal services are bespoke rather than commoditized, and thus are available at relatively high prices that few individuals can afford. A recent study showed that 76 percent of cases in state courts involve at least one party who is not represented by counsel. The law has seen little of the kind of innovation that would make legal services available at prices individuals can afford. To the degree that our “ethics” standards stand in the way of such innovation, they need to be reexamined.

Whistleblowing and the Fight Against Corruption

Kathleen Clark

Over the course of a century and a half, the U.S. Department of Justice has issued more than 50 opinions interpreting the constitution’s Foreign Emoluments Clause to protect our republic against foreign government influences. After President Trump was sued for violating the clause, the Department changed its position, and is now protecting Trump's ability to receive money from foreign governments rather than protecting the government itself.

Federal Preemption under Dodd-Frank's Whistleblower Award Program

Kathleen Clark

This research project examines whether lawyers -- like other corporate insiders -- are able to take advantage of the financial incentives that are available under the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)’s Dodd-Frank whistleblower program. Under that program, whistleblowers can be awarded 10-30% of the sanctions that the SEC obtains in enforcement cases. These financial incentives are working, as demonstrated by 3000 whistleblower tips that the SEC receives each year – not just from the United States but also from more than 50 nations. This presentation focuses on the interplay of state and federal authorities in regulating the disclosure options available to securities lawyers.

In 2020, the Ministry of Home Affairs established a committee led by Prof. (Dr.) Ranbir Singh, former Vice Chancellor of National Law University (NLU), Delhi. This committee was tasked with reviewing the three codes of criminal law. The primary objective of the committee was to propose comprehensive reforms to the country’s criminal laws in a manner that is both principled and effective. The committee’s focus was on ensuring the safety and security of individuals, communities, and the nation as a whole. Throughout its deliberations, the committee aimed to uphold constitutional values such as justice, dignity, and the intrinsic value of each individual. Their goal was to recommend amendments to the criminal laws that align with these values and priorities. Subsequently, in February, the committee successfully submitted its recommendations regarding amendments to the criminal law. These recommendations are intended to serve as a foundation for enhancing the current legal framework, promoting safety and security, and upholding the constitutional principles of justice, dignity, and the inherent worth of every individual.

Lifting the Corporate Veil. Power Point Presentation

seri bangash

"Lifting the Corporate Veil" is a legal concept that refers to the judicial act of disregarding the separate legal personality of a corporation or limited liability company (LLC). Normally, a corporation is considered a legal entity separate from its shareholders or members, meaning that the personal assets of shareholders or members are protected from the liabilities of the corporation. However, there are certain situations where courts may decide to "pierce" or "lift" the corporate veil, holding shareholders or members personally liable for the debts or actions of the corporation. Here are some common scenarios in which courts might lift the corporate veil: Fraud or Illegality: If shareholders or members use the corporate structure to perpetrate fraud, evade legal obligations, or engage in illegal activities, courts may disregard the corporate entity and hold those individuals personally liable. Undercapitalization: If a corporation is formed with insufficient capital to conduct its intended business and meet its foreseeable liabilities, and this lack of capitalization results in harm to creditors or other parties, courts may lift the corporate veil to hold shareholders or members liable. Failure to Observe Corporate Formalities: Corporations and LLCs are required to observe certain formalities, such as holding regular meetings, maintaining separate financial records, and avoiding commingling of personal and corporate assets. If these formalities are not observed and the corporate structure is used as a mere façade, courts may disregard the corporate entity. Alter Ego: If there is such a unity of interest and ownership between the corporation and its shareholders or members that the separate personalities of the corporation and the individuals no longer exist, courts may treat the corporation as the alter ego of its owners and hold them personally liable. Group Enterprises: In some cases, where multiple corporations are closely related or form part of a single economic unit, courts may pierce the corporate veil to achieve equity, particularly if one corporation's actions harm creditors or other stakeholders and the corporate structure is being used to shield culpable parties from liability.
