How to Earn a $3B Fine: TD Bank's Masterclass in Compliance Failures
Liz Soltan says regardless of how the investigation unfolded, compliance professionals can learn many lessons from it.
www.corporatecomplianceinsights.com
Liz Soltan and I wrote about the mind-breaking circumstances leading to the TD Bank guilty plea and $3B fine. We couldn’t help but wonder: was there a whistleblower? If so, a big reward could be on the way.
Now I have to recruit Liz here.

what you can't do, of course, is admit students based on race in order to achieve an ideologic and experiential balance.
you can only discriminate based on race if you're doing it for partisan advantage

John Roberts was part of the 3-judge panel presiding over Hamdan v. Rumsfeld while actively interviewing for a seat on the Supreme Court. He didn't recuse himself, didn't inform Hamdan's lawyers, and ruled in the Bush admin's favor the day before he interviewed with Bush himself.
A new book lays out how John Roberts was pitching himself to George W. Bush for a Supreme Court seat at the same time he was presiding over a controversial case involving Bush's administration.
