CYRUS D. MEHTA: OK, so we'll get moving with the next panel. We spoke about how people get into removal and deportation proceedings. This panel will generally speak about how people can seek relief from removal and deportation. And just relief in general, because asylum can be sought even administratively outside the removal context. So we do have a great panel. And it's going to be a long panel-- 1 hour, 15 minutes. Each speaker will have 25 minutes ...

RICHARD W. GRIME: OK everybody. This is the last session. And, hopefully, it's one where we can keep you engaged, because we have to keep you engaged, because it's a polling session. So in front of you are iPads. And I'm in control of the button here, which means that, in part, it may not work. But we'll hope that it does because the whole idea is that we're going to mind the benefit of these people on the panel here, which I'll introduce in a moment. We're ...

RICHARD W. GRIME: OK, good afternoon everybody, and welcome back. I guess there's just no break really for coffee, but hopefully the next panel will keep you on your toes. We're going to go to Greta Lichtenbaum, who's a partner of mine at O'Melveny & Myers, and let her introduce the panel members and kick off the panel. GRETA LICHTENBAUM: Great. Thanks, Richard. I didn't really focus on the fact that not only are we in the afternoon, but you ...

CYRUS D. MEHTA: All right. Great. So we are now ready to start the next session, the immigrant or permanent visa categories that lead to lawful permanent residency, or the green card. And we again have a very distinguished panel who have been doing it for many years.

CYRUS D. MEHTA: Hello, everybody. I'm glad you've come back and we're going to have our next session, post-lunch session. The morning session essentially focused on how to bring people into the United States, either on temporary visas, as well as on immigrant visas, and how they would ultimately get green cards. This session will be the exact opposite. It will focus on how to represent and defend people who are either being removed from the United ...

RICHARD W. GRIME: But we've got the last program of the day, so I'd like if you could to have people take their seats and we can then get the program underway. So I think during the most of the day, we've spent our time focusing on the FCPA and looking at its impact, either through cases or through hypotheticals, or looking to see how to set up a compliance program, or ensure that the guidance itself is honed in and understood by employees, understood ...

CYRUS D. MEHTA: All right, so in the next one hour, we are going to discuss nonimmigrant visa categories. So remember, I told you that you can either be an immigrant or a nonimmigrant. So let's start with, who are the nonimmigrants, and what visas are applicable to them? And we have an extremely distinguished panel who have been doing it before for years. So they're not only seasoned practitioners, but they're also seasoned presenters at PLI conferences. So ...

CYRUS D. MEHTA: Hello, everybody. It's always a pleasure to do these PLI programs on basic immigration law. Immigration law is a very complicated area. And to cover the entire breadth of immigration law in one day is quite a challenging task for the faculty. Nevertheless, we will try to provide you with the basic aspects of immigration law. There might be times when it might get more complex. There are times when we try to keep it basic. But we'll ...

YVONNE S. QUINN: Well, and we're going to keep right on moving-- thank you guys-- to our next speaker and topic, which is basically, international antitrust law, or what you need to know about international antitrust law. And I'm very pleased to introduce Jan McDavid who, somehow, we've both been doing this for 100 years, and we had never gotten to work together. And earlier this year, I had the pleasure of, with I think unexpected speed, getting ...

MARK F. MENDELSOHN: OK. Welcome back. Our next panel is going to be on the World Bank and Multilateral Development Banks, a topic of which has been touched on briefly in a number of the earlier panels. But we're going to take deeper dive into the subject. Just a couple of preliminary observations on my side, because this may be an unfamiliar topic for many of you. Companies, big and small, participate routinely in World Bank, or MDB finance projects ...
