Guilty of Insurance Fraud

People who commit insurance fraud think it is a crime without punishment or concern. When they are caught, prosecuted and convicted, the perpetrator is so amazed that he or she is one of the few unlucky ones who were caught that they use their ill-gotten gains to fund unfounded and frivolous appeals. For example, in The People of The State Of New York v. Troy M. Cordell, Jr., 637 KA 13-02114, 2020 NY Slip Op 06606, Supreme Court of The State Of New York Appellate Division, Fourth Judicial Department (November 13, 2020) Troy M. Cordell, Jr. filed such an appeal. Cordell had been convicted by a jury of insurance fraud in the fourth degree (Penal Law § 176.15) and falsifying business records in the first degree (§ 175.10), Cordell contended that the evidence is legally insufficient to establish his intent to defraud.

Famous Lawyer’s Assets Frozen by Federal Court

Thomas Girardi, a prominent Los Angeles attorney faced a federal judge in Chicago who froze the assets of his firm after finding that he misappropriated at least $2 million in client funds that were due to the families of those killed in the crash of a Boeing jet in Indonesia.

Girardi is one of the nation’s leading civil lawyers, and gained notoriety in 1993 for his role in a lawsuit against the Pacific Gas and Electric Company of California that went on to inspire the 2000 movie Erin Brockovich.

New Book: “It’s Time to Abolish The Tort of Bad Faith”

The concept of unintended consequences is one of the building blocks of economics. Adam Smith’s “invisible hand,” the most famous metaphor in social science, is an example of a positive unintended consequence.
