There were some terrific contenders for Litigator of the Week.
Our runners-up include Greenberg Traurig partner Marc Mukasey, who persuaded a federal jury in Connecticut to acquit former UBS AG trader Andre Flotron in what the firm says is the first successful defense against a spoofing charge. Flotron was charged with manipulating commodities prices of futures contracts for gold, silver, and metals by spoofing, or using trick orders. (And no, Mukasey is not joining Rudy Giuliani on the Trump legal team.)
