WASHINGTON, DC, USA, October 16, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — David Dorsen, who first came to national attention as Assistant United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York and Deputy Chief Counsel for the Senate Watergate Committee, has penned a new non-fiction legal document on his final and most extraordinary case.
Judicial Chaos: How Federal Judges Betrayed the Public’s Trust is the incredible roller coaster true story of Michael Lauer, who escaped to America from behind the Russian Iron Curtain at the age of 15, penniless and speaking no English. The hard-working immigrant made his way through college while driving a cab in New York, entered the world of finance downstairs[,] and made his fortune through his tenacious, yet always ethical and honest business practices. Lauer became a multi-millionaire, a relentless success model for hard-working immigrants who yearned to fulfill their dreams in America, and ultimately succeed beyond their wildest dreams.
Then, Michael Lauer’s dreams became a nightmare when an overzealous Securities and Exchange Commission and misguided Justice Department targeted Lauer, destroying him and those around him.
Attorney David Dorsen sat front row in the courtroom next to the defendant, serving as a pugnacious lawyer and Michael Lauer’s staunchest (and often only) ally TO TRY TO SAVE HIM AFTER THAT THE FEDERAL COURTS IMPOSED A TOTALLY UNJUSTIFIED JUDGMENT AGAINST HIM OF $62 MILLION. THE GOVERNMENT AND THE FEDERAL COURTS FIRST DEPRIVED LAUER OF THE USE OF HIS MONEY AND FORCED HIM TO REPRESENT HIMSELF IN A COMPLEX NIGHTMARE, THEN MANGLE THE LAW TO HIS DETRIMENT. THE COURTS TREATED DORSEN, WHO AGREED TO TRY TO REVERSE JUDGMENT, NO BETTER THAN THEY HAD TREATED LAUER.
Dorsen details why misguided, incompetent and excessive government officials wrongly concluded that his client was guilty of securities fraud, ignoring and circumventing established rules and procedures in their quest to “nail” the alleged culprit. EVEN MORE SERIOUSLY, MANY FEDERAL JUDGES KNOWINGLY STAMPED THIS CATASTROPHIC FINANCIAL DESTRUCTION OF AN INNOCENT MAN IN WHAT MAY BE UNIQUE IN A FEDERAL CIVIL CASE IN THIS COUNTRY.
Dorsen gives readers a highly nuanced “behind the bench” look at how the federal justice system can go completely wrong, with a never-before-revealed account of this extraordinary miscarriage of justice. The grizzled legal veteran details in breathtaking detail how judges ultimately wiped out three thriving hedge funds COLLECTIVELY WORTH OVER $1 BILLION, their INNOCENT investors and fund manager Lauer, who had never been prosecuted or ever charged with wrongdoing, BUT WAS INSTEAD OF AN AWARD-WINNING ANALYST, MAJOR PHILANTHROPIST AND SPORTSMAN WHO RACED CARS WITH PAUL NEWMAN.
Judicial Mayhem: How Federal Judges Betrayed Their Public Trust, published by Headlines Books, is now available wherever books are sold. Dorsen’s previous books include the novel Moses V. Trump, Henry Friendly, Greatest Judge Of His Era, and The Unexpected Scalia: A Conservative Justice’s Liberal Opinions about his close friend the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.
Mr. Dorsen is a graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Law School, and served as editor of the Harvard Law Review. He served as Assistant United States Attorney and Deputy Chief Counsel for the Senate Watergate Committee in addition to his many years in private practice. David’s clients have included General William C. Westmoreland, John and Maureen Dean in a libel suit against G. Gordon Liddy and others, and a company (IMIC) owned by the Hunt brothers and Arab sheikhs during the collapse of the silver market. Dorsen lives in Washington, D.C.
