Eric Holder, President-elect Barack Obama's choice for attorney general, will earn $4.6 million from his law firm this year and next, including deferred compensation and a separation payment.
In a financial statement provided to the Senate Judiciary Committee and made public Wednesday, Holder said he will earn $2.1 million in partnership compensation this year from the law firm of Covington & Burling. He will receive another $2.5 million next year in deferred compensation, partnership earnings for work performed this year and a separation payment.
Holder's total assets are $5.7 million. He listed no liabilities.
He has $1.4 million in cash and in banks, $1.9 million in real estate and $1.3 million in pension-and-retirement savings plans.
Holder may be Obama's most controversial Cabinet nominee because of his actions as deputy attorney general under President Bill Clinton, particularly his role in the pardon of fugitive financier Marc Rich.
Judiciary Committee Republicans are seeking a large amount of information from the Justice Department and Clinton's presidential library, a sign that the confirmation hearing beginning Jan. 15 will be contentious and have political overtones.

Prominent NY law firm to seek bankruptcy
A prominent Manhattan law firm scandalized by charges that its founder masterminded a massive fraud will seek bankruptcy protection, according to a receiver appointed to run the firm.
In a letter to a federal judge, the receiver also predicted founder Marc Dreier will soon seek protection too.
The Securities and Exchange Commission has been notified "of my intention to seek bankruptcy protection, and I believe Mr. Dreier will file a personal petition for bankruptcy in the future," the receiver, Mark Pomerantz, said in the letter dated Dec. 11.
The mid-size firm, Dreier LLP, has represented celebrities including retired football star Michael Strahan and former News Corp. publishing executive Judith Regan.
Dreier's lawyer has said his client would cooperate fully with the court-appointed receiver overseeing his assets.
The 58-year-old defendant was jailed without bail last week after being charged in a criminal complaint and by the SEC in the alleged sale of fraudulent promissory notes.
Prosecutors accused Dreier of posing as if he were peddling heavily discounted investments in a New York City real estate development company because original investors, damaged by the world's financial crisis, were backing out.

Testimony doesn't link US soldier to 4 dead Iraqis
A defense lawyer told a military court Thursday that witnesses had provided insufficient evidence to support charges that a U.S. Army sergeant was involved in killing four Iraqi men found bound, blindfolded, shot and dumped in a Baghdad canal.
Sgt. Joseph P. Mayo is alleged to have taken part in shooting the detainees.
The Article 32 hearing, the military equivalent of a civilian grand jury, began Wednesday to assess the charges against Mayo and decide whether to refer him for a court-martial. A decision is not expected this week.
The first witness to testify Thursday, Joshua Hartson, was a former soldier in Mayo's unit. He was asked whether Mayo had said anything to him regarding the shootings, or told him anything about covering up the incident.
"No," Hartson told the court by telephone from Victorville, California, where he lives after leaving the military on a medical discharge.
An investigator in the case currently in Iraq, Special Agent Brad McCarthy, testified he had no physical evidence "like bodies or guns" to implicate Mayo and didn't know if there was any.

Trailer Truck Nightmare Accidents
On June 13, 2006, Elizabeth Libby Kellum, a 22-year-old Austin College graduate, was driving on U.S. Highway 75 when she was recklessly run over by an 80,000 lb. tractor-trailer driven by an unqualified driver. Libby miraculously survived. This is her story from near death to her amazing medical recovery and how her lawyers, Joel Fineberg and Dean Gresham, took on Big Business and their insurance companies to fight for her justice in the case of Kellum v. Allied Van Lines et al.
When Libby took evasive action to avoid a collision with a tractor-trailer that swerved into her lane, she was struck by another tractor-trailer. The collision left her on the brink of death. As a result of the accident, she now suffers permanent brain injury. Libby's parents, individually and on her behalf, sued the two drivers and their respective employers, alleging, among other claims, that the employers failed to perform appropriate background checks of the drivers-which would have revealed numerous citations for driving under the influence, reckless driving, and speeding-failed to have appropriate policies, procedures, and screening for the hiring and retention of truck drivers; and allowed unfit drivers to operate commercial tracks. The drivers also allegedly failed to maintain a proper lookout and failed to obey local, state, and federal laws involving the operation of a motor vehicle.
Joel M. Fineberg has built a recognized national practice representing plaintiffs in sophisticated commercial contingency and patent infringement litigation as well as class actions, catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases resulting from work place, aircraft and truck accidents. Recovering multi-million dollar verdicts for his corporate and individual clients, Joel has built an unparalleled reputation as a dedicated advocate on behalf of his clients' rights. Recognized for his talent and dedication, Joel was named one of Texas' best lawyers and a Texas Super Lawyer for four years in a row by various legal and consumer magazines such as Texas Monthly, Texas Super Lawyers and D Magazine. Joel also serves as a director of the Texas Trial Lawyers Association and is a member of both the Texas and Dallas Bar Associations, the Dallas Trial Lawyers Association, and the Association of Trial Lawyers of America. He is a graduate of Emory University and Southern Methodist University Dedman School of Law.
Dean Gresham is a talented lawyer that brings unique insight and a creative approach to high-stakes commercial, class action, and personal injury litigation. Dean's dedication to his clients as well as his attention to detail and an innovative approach to legal analysis has resulted in significant multi-million dollar recoveries for his clients. His keen ability to analyze complicated legal issues and provide unique, creative solutions to legal problems that other lawyers consider to be unsolvable is the reason Dean is considered one of the top lawyers in Texas. After the horrific attack on our Country on September 11, 2001, Dean joined forces with other trial lawyers across the country in what has been described as ¡°the largest pro bono project in our nation's history.¡± Through the Trial Lawyers Care program, he provided free legal representation to victims and their families of the September 11 tragedy. Dean was one of the few lawyers who provided legal representation to over 1,700 victims and their families---over $200 million in legal services provided absolutely free of charge. A native Texan, Dean earned his law degree, cum laude, from South Texas College of Law where he was awarded the American Jurisprudence award for outstanding achievement in the study of Conflict of Laws and Legal Research & Writing.
Fineberg/Gresham handles sophisticated commercial, intellectual property, and class-action litigation on a contingent fee basis. From time to time and when the facts are egregious enough, Fineberg/Gresham will accept catastrophic injury and death cases arising out of workplace injuries, truck wrecks and defective products. The attorneys at Fineberg/Gresham have a single goal: the relentless pursuit of justice. The firm approaches cases with an unmatched aggressiveness, tenacity, preparation and creativity, which accounts for the exceptional results they often obtain with unprecedented speed. The firm represents companies and individuals in a wide variety of areas and has obtained significant, multimillion-dollar recoveries over the years.

Fund manager in scandal once boasted about profits
The money manager accused of duping investors in one of Wall Street's biggest Ponzi schemes once boasted to the Securities and Exchange Commission about how much money he earned and formally advised the U.S. government on ways to protect investors from scam artists.
Now Bernard Madoff stands accused of being one.
The 70-year-old Madoff (MAY-doff), well respected in the investment community after serving as chairman of the Nasdaq Stock Market, was arrested last week in what prosecutors say was a $50 billion scheme to defraud investors, including the world's big banks, the rich and the famous.
Alleged victims include the family charitable foundation for Sen. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J.; a trust tied to real estate magnate Mortimer Zuckerman; and a charity of movie director Steven Spielberg. The Wall Street Journal reported that the foundation of Nobel laureate Elie Wiesel also took a hit.
As the scale of the alleged scheme was realized, attention turned quickly to Madoff's connections to Washington regulators responsible for monitoring investment funds like the one Madoff operated. He knew everyone, former SEC chairman Arthur Levitt said in an interview with The Associated Press. Levitt said he did not invest any money with Madoff.

Train Accident Lawyer Jerry Ringler - Message for Chatsworth Train Accident Victims
Special Message for Victims of Chatsworth Metrolink Disaster
On September 12, 2008, an unprecedented tragedy occurred in Chatsworth, California when Metrolink Train #111 struck a Union Pacific freight train which was traveling on the same tracks. Our hearts go out to the victims. But this tragedy should not have happened. It happened because of human error on the part of Metrolink employees. Unfortunately, as the lawyers of RKA know well, human error by railroad engineers is not at all unique as a cause of commuter rail disasters.
Jerome L. Ringler has greater experience in representing victims of commuter rail and freight train disasters than any other lawyer in the State of California, if not the country. He has served as lead counsel in every one of the largest commuter rail disasters which have occurred in Southern California in the past 10 years.
In the Placentia Commuter Rail Disaster of 2003, Mr. Ringler was appointed by the Court as lead counsel for all of the Plaintiffs. He was requested by all of the lawyers representing individuals injured or killed in that incident to try the first case. That case resulted in the largest verdict for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder ever rendered by a jury in the United States. That verdict, which was for $9 million, is detailed below in the multimedia section.
In the Burbank Commuter Rail Disaster, which also occurred in 2003, Mr. Ringler was again appointed by the Court to serve as lead counsel. In that capacity he was given the responsibility to try the entire liability (i.e., fault) case for all of the victims. In other words, every one of the dozens of lawyers who represented individual victims in that disaster trusted Mr. Ringler to try the liability phase for them, knowing that their clients would only recover if Mr. Ringler was successful. He was. In fact, Mr. Ringler not only obtained a favorable verdict for all of the plaintiffs, he obtained a $12 million verdict for his own client as well. This verdict was the largest in the State of California for a person with the type of injuries Mr. Ringler's client had suffered. This verdict is detailed below in the multimedia section.
Mr. Ringler is currently lead counsel for all plaintiffs in the Glendale Metrolink Derailment Disaster of 2005. This incident was, before September 12, 2008, the largest Metrolink disaster in history. Interestingly, in that case (which involves 11 deaths and dozens of serious injuries), Mr. Ringler has, against all odds, developed testimony proving that, even though a mentally-ill person placed a jeep across the tracks that the Metrolink train was traveling upon, human error on the part of the Metrolink engineer prevented him from stopping the train before hitting the jeep, which caused the train to derail. In other words, while the jeep certainly never should have been on the tracks, the Metrolink engineer would have been able to stop the train before ever striking the jeep had he only been paying proper attention. That case is scheduled to go to trial on June 8, 2009, with Mr. Ringler as lead counsel.
The verdicts detailed on this page all relate to railroad litigation. However, Mr. Ringler has achieved enormous, record-breaking monetary awards across California in a variety of complex areas. Those accomplishments are detailed elsewhere in this website. To see them, click here.
If you or a loved one has suffered injury or death as a result of the horrific Chatsworth Metrolink Disaster, we are available to discuss your rights with you confidentially and at no charge.
Please feel free to contact us at your convenience. Ask for Mr. Ringler,or any of his partners, at (213) 473-1900.

Los Angeles Immigration Court caseload soars
The number of foreigners landing in Los Angeles Immigration Court has surged in recent years, while the number of judges has remained about the same, causing crushing caseloads and lengthy delays.Expanded immigration enforcement, including the ongoing search for illegal immigrants in county jails, is causing much of the rise, according to judges, attorneys and experts."I don't think it's possible for a court to implode from weight, but we may see," said former L.A. Immigration Judge Gilbert T. Gembacz, who retired last month after more than a decade on the bench.Los Angeles immigration judges heard 27,200 cases last fiscal year, up from about 17,800 in 2000. In the last fiscal year alone, the number of immigration cases rose nearly 40%.Immigration courts nationwide mirror the trend. Last fiscal year, judges heard 334,600 cases, up from 254,500 in 2000. During the same period, the number of judges increased to 220 from 207.
