, Lee, Frank (SF) , Fisher, Alice (DC) Subject: Press: AmLaw Litigation Daily on Emirates Bank win I'll soon send a cleaner version of this and other coverage, but wanted to share the article just posted in the AmLaw Litigation Daily. A personal thanks to Dan for speaking to the reporter, and Nima for feeding us case documents and insights. http://m.litigationdaily.com/#/article/1202765052511/1/A%20Master%20at%20Work:%20Dissecting%20the %20Closing%20Argument%20in%20Latham's%20Нuge%20Win%20for%20Middle%20Eastern%20Bank A Master at Work: Dissecting the Closing Argument in Latham's Huge Win for Middle Eastern Bank Jenna Greene08/14/2016 For Latham & Watkins, defending a Middle Eastern bank accused of stealing trade secrets from a plucky American entrepreneur could have been a tough sell to a federal jury in Orange County, California. [http://www.law.com/image/LitDaily/DailyDicta.jpg]The stakes were high--more than half a billion dollars in damages--and some of the facts were, ahem, challenging. How did Latham lawyers turn a potentially unsympathetic narrative into a unanimous win for Dubai-based Emirates NBD Bank PJSC on Thursday? A look at closing arguments by Latham partner Kathryn Ruemmler, who made her first in-court appearance since she stepped down as White House counsel in 2014, is revealing in a watch-the-master-at-work kind of way. Along with Latham partners Daniel Schecter and Dean Dunlavey, she faced off against an equally formidable opponent: Boies, Schiller & Flexner partner William Isaacson, who wasnamed a litigator of the year< http://www.americanlawyer.com/id=1202745123270/Litigator-of-the-Year-William-Isaacson-of-Boies- Schiller > by The American Lawyer in 2015. Ruemmler parachuted into the case on May 20, replacing Steven Bauer. He had another case (on behalf of Pacific Gas & Electric <http://www.therecorder.com/id=1202764714611/Split-Verdict-in-PGE-Pipeline-Blast- Case?slreturn=20160712215338>) going to trial at the same time and couldn't convince U.S. District Judge James Selna to push back the trial date, which had already been delayed several times. This was the lay of the land: Two weeks before, the Los Angeles Times on May 8 had run a lengthy feature http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-infospan-lawsuit-20160508-story.html that was distinctly sympathetic to the plaintiff, Farooq Bajwa. A former computer components manufacturer/ El Pollo Loco franchise owner, his latest venture was a company called InfoSpan Inc. Bajwa is portrayed as a visionary who had an idea to allow foreign workers to easily and cheaply send funds back to relatives in their home country via the internet or cell phone. "I realized I might make a big difference in this world not only helping these underprivileged people who don't have bank accounts, I will also be helping bring an economic revolution," Bajwa, 64, told the paper. "I had very big dreams." HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_012038
