Jonathan Bristol, a former partner of Winston & Strawn, is expected to plead guilty to charges in connection with the alleged laundering of money for now-imprisoned money manager Kenneth Starr. Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael Bosworth told Southern District Judge Deborah A. Batts yesterday that an agreement in principle has been reached concerning a disposition in the case.

Mr. Bristol was arrested in December and accused of laundering more than $20 million through his attorney escrow accounts for Mr. Starr, who was running a $33 million Ponzi scheme (NYLJ, Dec. 17, 2010).
