A long-time New York lawyer earned himself a public censure after a “60 Minutes” segment showed him advising how to park suspicious funds in the U.S. and suggesting American lawyers typically don't face criminal prosecution because they “run the country.”

The New York Supreme Court Appellate Division, First Department on Tuesday issued a public censure to Marc Koplik of the Manhattan law firm Henderson & Koplik. The lawyer was admitted to the New York Bar in 1973, and his law firm biography said he spent part of his early career at Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton and Debevoise & Plimpton.

“He counseled a client to engage in conduct he knew was illegal or fraudulent and suggested to the client that lawyers in the United States can act with impunity,” the First Department wrote in its disciplinary ruling.
