Jury Orders Fen-Phen Lawyers to Return Money
Two attorneys convicted of defrauding clients involved in a fen-phen diet drug case must forfeit $30 million, a federal jury ruled Tuesday. A spokesman for the U.S. Attorneys Office said the money will be used to reimburse clients affected by the fraud. Attorneys William Gallion and Shirley Cunningham bilked about 440 clients out of $94.6 million, according to prosecutors.
