A report came this week that former Full Tilt Director Chris Ferguson's attorneys Harris, O'Brien, St. Laurent & Houteling LLP have submitted a memorandum to the U.S. Courts in which they expressed support of Howard Lederer's motion to dismiss the verified second amended complaint (SAC) against him.
It was assessed in the memorandum that "the deficiencies in the SAC and the legal arguments asserted by Mr. Lederer, including the recent decision in United States v. DiCristina, No. 11-CR-414, 2012 WL3573895 (E.D.N.Y. Aug. 21, 2012), apply equally to Mr Ferguson.”
They also noted that the Government has yet to state a single specific allegation that would result in a claim against Ferguson and that "the factual allegations against Mr. Ferguson are strikingly deficient", and as such, the memorandum requests the dismissal of the second amended complaint against Ferguson.
