Enforcement 40 for 2013: Hon. Stanley Sporkin

By Securities Docket on October 8, 2013, 12:04 am

JudgeSporkin“The Honorable Stanley Sporkin often preaches that government officials must use rachmones – a Yiddish term meaning compassion – when they administer justice.  He was famous for that philosophy when he was director of Enforcement, often figuring out ways to settle matters without breaking the spirit or the financial condition of the individuals he sued. Today, on his off hours from serving as British Petroleum’s Safety Ombudsman, he brings that same approach to the individuals and entities he represents before the Commission. He doesn’t care if a client can’t pay his rates–if he believes the individual or entity is being unfairly, he takes the case and vigorously fights for a fair deal, never letting the client down, even if that means taking the case to trial.”
