A Message From the Editor

Good Morning. We're covering a decision by a U.S. federal court judge who has ruled that Meta must face a lawsuit brought by Australian billionaire Andrew Forrest for Facebook crypto ads. Also, the ground-breaking civil liability verdict against Chiquita Brands International has stirred questions for corporations and their legal advisers about corporate ethics, compliance and self-reporting. And Curtis, Mallet-Prevost has hired a longtime corporate and compliance partner from Willkie Farr & Gallagher’s Italian affiliate to expand its offering in Italy and Europe.
