Pharmaceutical Company CEO Sentencing
March 8, 2023
Thank you to our firm's outstanding attorneys for their work that resulted in our client being sentenced to only 27 months when he was facing a mandatory minimum 10 years for narcotics distribution. The Rule 29 motion filed after the jury verdict resulted in Judge Daniels vacating the portion of the verdict that would have mandated the 10 year minimum term of imprisonment. Our client, the first CEO of a pharmaceutical company to be charged criminally with illegal distribution of opioids was released pending his appeal of his conviction to the Second Circuit. This was truly a team effort.
