On April 18, 2008, U.S. District Court Judge Joan Lefkow ordered the government to return approximately $300,000 in cash to a Meyer & O’Connor, LLC client, which the court held had been unlawfully seized by government agents. This action follows an earlier ruling by the court, after a lengthy suppression hearing, that DEA agents had acted illegally in searching and seizing certain items, including the cash, from the client’s home.
