SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Feb 26 – In 2018 a 227-page
complaint was filed about
foreign exchange manipulation,
against a slew of banks
including Citigroup, Bank of
America, MUFG, RBS, Barclays,
UBS, HSBC, JP Morgan Chase and
Deutsche Bank.
On June 24,
2020, there was a proceeding
before U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York Magistrate Judge Stewart
D. Aaron. Inner City Press
covered it.
Things got
surprisingly raucous between
the corporate counsel, about
electronic discovery search
terms.
Judge Aaron
said, I am the judge, I am
going to speak. And he did,
ordering the parties to meet
and confer and provide hit
counts to each other, that
relate in any way to FX
trading.
Judge Aaron
set another conference. So it
goes with corporate
litigation.
On
February 26, another
conference was held. Judge
Aaron listened, probed, then
ordered that "each of those
defendants that has not
provided complete hit count
reports to Plaintiffs shale
provide a program report to
the Court regarding such
reports" - and to Plaintiffs
by March 26.
The case is
Allianz Global Investors GmbH
et al v. Bank Of America
Corporation et al.,
18-cv-10364 (Schofield /
Aaron).
