Mintz's White Collar Practice achieved a successful result for client Joe Percoco, the former aid to ex-Governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo, after the Supreme Court agreed to determine the question of whether a private citizen who has informal political influence owes a fiduciary duty to the public.
Mintz, along with co-counsel Black Srebnick PA, secured a full acquittal on all charges brought against client Amin Khoury, who had been charged with conspiracy to commit mail fraud, honest services fraud and federal programs bribery. The trial was the final case tied to the nationwide college admissions scandal known as “Operation Varsity Blues,” and the only case out of 57 to end in an acquittal. Every other defendant was convicted following a guilty plea or trial.
