SDNY COURTHOUSE,
May 15 – Mega International
Commercial Bank passed
information about its P&G
Auditors to Navigant, and now
an allegedly absolute
privilege for bank regulatory
documents is being cited.
Inner City Press is on the
case, which has the potential
to simply disappear in three
weeks' time into settlement
world.
U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge J. Paul Oetken asked to
see the documents at issue.
But Mega
Bank's lawyer from Gottesman,
Wolge, Secunda said that would
not be possible, without
angering the NYS Department of
Financial Services.
Judge
Oetken said, one week to
convince me otherwise with
case law, or turn over the
documents in three weeks. Or
settle. A number was floated
by the parties but Inner City
Press due to recent unclarity
is not publishing it.
The case is
P&G Auditors and
Consultants, LLC v. Mega
International Commercial Bank
Co., Ltd, 18-cv-9232 (Oetken).
