Morgan Stanley's Recipe for Disaster
What happened behind the scenes of the Sunbeam case that cost Morgan Stanley $1.6 billion? The record shows that the company and its in-house lawyers made some horrendous miscalculations and engaged in discovery misconduct -- although it's not clear to what extent those acts were intentional. What is clear: The case cost Morgan Stanley general counsel Donald Kempf Jr. his job and his relationship with his old firm, Kirkland & Ellis, which Kempf wound up firing as lead counsel on the Sunbeam case.
