Müssen Lederer, Ferguson und Co. mit ihrem Eigentum haften?

September 23, 2011, Redaktion

Anfang dieser Woche haben wir bereits darüber berichtet, dass die US-Behörden gegen Howard Lederer, Chris Ferguson, CEO Ray Bitar und Rafe Furst eine Klage angekündigt haben und Full Tilt Poker nichts anderes als ein Pyramidenspiel gewesen sein soll.

Nun hat das DOJ eine Vollmacht herausgegeben, die sie berechtigt fünf Bankkonten zu beschlagnahmen, was nichts anderes bedeutet, als daß es nun den Herren an den Besitz geht. Das ganze Verfahren wird natürlich zu keiner Verhaftung von Ferguson, Lederer, und Co. führen, da es nur eine zivilrechtliche Klage ist.

Hier finden Sie eine Kopie von drei Vollmachten:

"YOU ARE HEREBY COMMANDED AND AUTHORIZED to seize the property described below by personally serving a copy of this warrant in rem upon any person presently in possession of such property:

All funds and other property on deposit in account numbered GB81 RBOS 6095 4234 0877 66 held at NatWest, in the name of Raymond Bitar, and all funds traceable thereto;

All funds and other property on deposit in account numbered 7655741861 held at Wells Fargo Bank N.A. in the name of HH Lederer Consulting LLC, and all funds traceable thereto; and

All funds and other property on deposit in account numbered GB56LOYD30166314010402 held at Lloyds TSB International, Isle of Mann, in the name of Howard Lederer, and all funds traceable thereto;

All fund and other property on deposit in the account numbered 40039049628 held at Citibank N.A., in the name of Chris Ferguson, and all funds traceable thereto; and

Account numbered CH87 0875 5057 0684 0010 0 held at Pictet & Co Bankers, Switzerland, in the name of Telamonian Ajax Trust, and all funds traceable thereto.

YOU ARE FURTHER COMMANDED AND AUTHORIZED to prepare a written inventory of the property seized and promptly return this warrant and inventory before this Court as required by law."

The arrest warrant in rem was issued on Sept. 19 and signed by the Honorable Leonard B. Sand, U.S. District Judge for the Southern District of New York. It was issued to "any designated officer of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and/or any law enforcement officer authorized by law," commanding them to seize the property that appears in the warrant.
