This recent post highlighted the highly unusual aspects of the DOJ’s prosecution of former Cognizant Technology Solutions executives Gordon Coburn and Steven Schwartz and questioned why – in light of President Trump’s recent Executive Order – the case is going forward.
According to the docket, the case is indeed going forward with jury selection set to begin tomorrow in U.S. District Court in New Jersey before Judge Michael Farbiarz.
The matter is believed to be just the 23rd FCPA jury trial in the statute’s nearly 48 years.
Thus, a jury questionnaire and jury questions in an FCPA trial are rather unique.
See here for the jury questionnaire and here for the jury questions.
