The Manhattan district attorney is recommending the maximum sentence for former Dewey & LeBoeuf chief financial officer Joel Sanders, urging a New York judge that a prison sentence is “absolutely warranted” because he hasn’t taken responsibility for his actions and his “lies put others’ money at risk but never his own.”
While Sanders has urged Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Robert Stolz to impose no jail time—his convictions do not require a prison term—the maximum sentence is one and a third to fours years.
