Practice    Internal Investigations and Independent Monitoring

In 2004, we were appointed by U.S. District Judge Arthur. D. Spatt to monitor the New York Racing Association (NYRA). This Monitorship was a condition of a deferred prosecution agreement between NYRA and the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York which arose after NYRA was charged with tax fraud and other federal crimes. We are currently monitoring all aspects of NYRA’s daily activities and operations on-site at NYRA racetracks to ensure compliance with the Deferred Prosecution Agreement and to detect and prevent fraudulent and abusive practices in the short and long term.

Internal and independent investigations are key tools in helping companies foster business integrity. While such investigations tend to follow a fraud or corruption scandal, achieving a partnership of good business and good compliance need not await government intervention. Indeed, companies report the best experience when they undertake efforts to prevent, detect and achieve a speedy resolution to fraud problems on their own.”
