  • Timeline of New York Attorney General Lawsuit Against Exxonmobil
    TIMELINE OF NEW YORK ATTORNEY GENERAL LAWSUIT AGAINST EXXONMOBIL Nov. 4, 2015 Then-Attorney General Eric Schneiderman announces his subpoena of ExxonMobil to determine whether the company’s statements to investors regarding the risks climate change posed to its business were consistent with Mar. 29, 2016 the company’s own internal climate research. Schneiderman and several other state attorneys general hold a press conference announcing the formation of “AGs United for Clean Power,” an informal group designed to promote anti-oil and gas policies at the state and federal level. Apr. 13, 2016 Spearheaded by Schneiderman, the state AGs who participated in the AGs United for Clean Power press conference, signed a legal common interest agreement that broadly conceals communications between the states in Jun. 15, 2016 order to subvert public records laws. Thirteen state AGs call Schneiderman and Healey’s investigations into ExxonMobil “a grave mistake,” adding, “We are concerned that our colleagues’ investigation undermines the trust the people have invested in Attorneys General to investigate fraud.” Aug. 2016 August 2016: Schneiderman indicated to the New York Times that his investigation was shifting to focus “less on the distant past than on relatively recent statements by ExxonMobil related to climate change and what it means to the company’s future.” Sept. 20, 2016 The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) launches its own investigation into ExxonMobil to understand how the company values its assets in order to determine if ExxonMobil misled investors on the risks climate change poses to its business. Jun. 2, 2017 June 2, 2017: Schneiderman again shifted the focus of his investigation into ExxonMobil, shifting from his original claim that the company was publicly trying to downplay the risks of global warming to a position that the company misrepresented how it was incorporating future climate policies into its business decisions, arguing that it may have inflated the risks climate change posed to its operations.

  • 'Hamilton' and 'Harry Potter' Productions Try to Outwit Scalpers
    ‘Hamilton’ and ‘Harry Potter’ Productions Try to Outwit Scalpers By MICHAEL PAULSON and BEN SISARIOFEB. 12, 2017 The Harry Potter play in London has been trying to combat scalpers. The play is planning to open on Broadway next year, and hoping to contain scalping there as well. CreditTom Jamieson for The New York Times LONDON — “Hamilton” and the new “Harry Potter” play are the hottest theatrical shows of the moment, with “Hamilton” outgrossing everything else on Broadway, and Harry, Hermione and Ron drawing hordes of muggles to London’s West End. But success has a side effect: Both shows have fallen prey to high-tech scalpers who harvest large quantities of seats and resell them at exorbitant markups. “Hamilton” has been hit particularly hard: When it first opened on Broadway, nearly 80 percent of seats were purchased by automated ticket bots, and for Lin-Manuel Miranda’s final performance, resellers were seeking an average of $10,900 a seat. Now, as “Hamilton” prepares to open in London this fall and “Harry Potter” plans to open on Broadway next year, the producers of both shows are aggressively trying to contain scalping, a long-festering problem for the entertainment industry that has been exacerbated by technology. The producers of “Hamilton” are trying an unusual approach for theater — paperless ticketing — while the producers of “Harry Potter” are refusing to accept resold tickets. And in the United States and Britain, policy makers are tackling the issue anew, concerned about the effect of industrialized scalping on consumers and artists. “I’ve been in the business 50 years, and I’ve lived through lots of scalping,” said Cameron Mackintosh, producer of “Cats,” “Les Misérables,” “The Phantom of the Opera” and “Miss Saigon.” “It’s just got far, far more sophisticated, because of automation’s creeping stranglehold on human beings.” Photo “Hamilton,” which has been immensely popular on Broadway, is to open this fall in London, where producers are working to deter scalpers.

  • The Common Law Powers of the New York State Attorney General
    THE COMMON LAW POWERS OF THE NEW YORK STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL Bennett Liebman* The role of the Attorney General in New York State has become increasingly active, shifting from mostly defensive representation of New York to also encompass affirmative litigation on behalf of the state and its citizens. As newly-active state Attorneys General across the country begin to play a larger role in national politics and policymaking, the scope of the powers of the Attorney General in New York State has never been more important. This Article traces the constitutional and historical development of the At- torney General in New York State, arguing that the office retains a signifi- cant body of common law powers, many of which are underutilized. The Article concludes with a discussion of how these powers might influence the actions of the Attorney General in New York State in the future.

The last two elected governors of New York were former AGs — Eliot Spitzer and Andrew Cuomo. Schneiderman, a Democrat in his second term, almost certainly will consider a run for governor.

    The Honorable Letitia James Attorney General of the State of New York The Capitol Albany, New York 12224 July 18, 2019 Dear Attorney General James, We write to request that you investigate whether to bring proceedings to dissolve and revoke the charter of The Trump Organization, Inc. under Section 1101 of the Business Corporation Law. Your office has already taken comparable action resulting in the dissolution of the Trump Foundation, run largely by the same individuals who lead the Trump Organization, under a similar statutory provision for dissolution of nonprofit corporations.1 And we understand that your office has begun an investigation into four Trump Organization projects, and commend that effort.2 But the problem goes beyond just four projects. The Trump Organization is inextricably enmeshed in unlawful misconduct, and the entire corporation should be dissolved. Judicial dissolution of a corporation should not be undertaken lightly. But this is not an ordinary case. As we explained in correspondence to 1 See People v. Trump, No. 451130/2018, 88 N.Y.S.3d 830 (N.Y. Sup. Ct.

Email: [email protected] INTRODUCTION: The nation like India, where diversity in every aspect of large scale population at extreme level and on other hand lack of formal education needs some important governmental steps to be taken. In that scenario government of India aimed ‘to train personnel and partly to discover what TV could achieve in community development and formal education’. Ahead for this UNESCO granted $ 20,000 and United States offered few equipments. Finally with this remarkable base Delhi television centre went on the air on 15th September 1959. After two years a survey was conducted to evaluate the impact of this, which showed some hope as the output. This successful experiment leaded towards a new start. By the end of the decade there were more than 200,000 TV sets in Delhi and neighbouring states. The Bombay centre was opened in 1972, followed by relay stations at Srinagar, Amritsar and Pune. After that Calcutta, Madras and Lucknow emerged on this map in 1975. Milestone year in Indian television industry took place in 1982, where The Asian Games were shown on colour television.
