Bank Directors', Officers', and Lawyers' Civil Liabilities, Third Edition is an essential resource for any attorney who is litigating or attempting to settle cases brought by the federal and state banking regulators against directors, officers, and legal counsel of financial institutions. It provides current analysis of the new law emerging from the courts, the Supreme Court's landmark decision in O'Melveny & Myers v. FDIC and the demise of the federal common law regarding failed financial institutions. Directors' and officers' liability insurance and bank fidelity bonds are also covered in detail. John K. Villa guides you through the complexities of litigating an action - and discusses ways to reduce the chances of litigation - with strategic recommendations for all key players. This authoritative treatise answers essential questions such as: When is a bank director indemnified? How is the statute of limitations applied? What added responsibilities does a lawyer assume by becoming a bank director; does federal or state law control? What are acceptable courses of conduct for the bank? What must agencies prove before a court will enforce an administrative subpoena for financial data? How does the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 affect those banks that constitute a public company? New developments analyzed in the Third Edition include: Updated guidance from the banking regulatory agencies on implementing effective Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering compliance programs. Updated regulations on the application of the Volcker Rule. Recent ethics opinions addressing the nature and extent of a lawyer's duty with respect to the return of a client's files. An attorney's liability as a joint tortfeasor for participating in another's breach of fiduciary duty. Updated guidance on the imposition of firm-wide penalties in enforcement actions and on capital requirements for community banking entities. New case law addressing issues under the Delaware indemnification statute. Note: Online subscriptions are for three-month periods.
