From Boardroom to Courtroom: Episode 3: Current State of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act

Host Professor J.W. Verret interviews Pete Tomczak, global head of investigations at Baker McKenzie, about the current state of Foreign Corrupt Practices Act practice in the wake of the new administration’s pause. We discuss the real world FCPA case of US v. Lawrence Hoskins, a defendant who was acquitted in a case that went to trial and saw multiple appellate decisions that demonstrates a tendency for federal overreach in FCPA matters.
