Seymour Lazar Indictment

A copy of the 70-page indictment of Seymour M. Lazar, who allegedly received illegal kickback payments from a "New York Law Firm" in exchange for serving as a plaintiff in numerous securities class action lawsuits brought by the law firm, is available here[UPDATE: The DOJ link to this document is no longer functioning.  A copy of the indictment is now available here].  For those of you who may have been in depositions for the last two days or perhaps hospitalized with no access to news, according to this article in the WSJ

The charges don't name Milberg Weiss, but Milberg Weiss officials confirm that it is the firm cited in the indictment. The firm has been told that senior partners alleged to have authorized payments to the plaintiff and the firm itself could face indictment, the lawyers close to the case said.
