Recorded on: May. 1, 2013

JONATHAN K. YOUNGWOOD: So most of these things don't begin and end with the discovery of the press release, or the press story with the regulatory investigation. Any company that's experienced what this company just experienced is, without fail, going to face civil litigation, as well.

You get a situation, you get a phone call, you are told about a problem. You don't know whether it's a little problem, medium sized ...
