SMG in a challenge by the New Orleans Saints of the Saints’
lease of the Superdome, IBM in a multi-district patent litigation
relating to hard disc drives, Manpower in the defense of claims,
including class action claims, arising out of the Kaiser plant explosion,
The Times-Picayune and The Associated Press in access issues arising
out of the trial of former Louisiana Governor Edwin Edwards, the
State of Louisiana in various actions to collect tens of millions
of dollars of disputed corporate taxes, and First Guaranty Bank
in its defense of Hibernia’s suit to compel the sale of First
Guaranty to Hibernia.
