Jeff looks for some unusual legal arguments to try and get out of jail before he becomes the oldest guy in the room… From Business Week here are some details of his Supreme Court Appeal:
Ex Enron CEO Jeffrey K. Skilling’s quest to have his 2006 fraud conviction overturned got a boost today, when the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to consider his case. Skilling cited two reasons why he deserves a new trial – that he couldn’t receive a fair trial in Enron’s hometown of Houston; and that one charge on which he was convicted, “honest services” fraud, is unconstitutionally vague. One or both arguments may have piqued the Justices’ interest – they don’t say.
May he get out just in time to enjoy remeniscing on his porch? Fond memories of the good old days with Ken…
