Joel Sanders, the former Dewey & LeBoeuf executive who was jailed last Thursday (15 November) for failing to pay a fine stemming from his conviction, was released early on Friday morning, according to his defence lawyer, who said Sanders’ current law firm, Greenspoon Marder, paid the entire $1m penalty.
“His firm backed him up with this, they were able to come up with the money. They value Joel, they think he’s a tremendous individual,” said Christopher Oprison, Sanders’ lawyer, about Greenspoon. “That just shows their dedication and how they feel about Joel.”
