The US Department of Justice pulled its antitrust amnesty deal with Stolt Nielsen S.A.. a Norwegian-based global transportation company—the first time the DOJ backed out of an amnesty deal. J. Mark Gidley and Christopher Curran, who led the White & Case team for Stolt, urged a bold strategy—sue the government to make it live up to its word. In this article Gidley and Curran discuss the case and their line of attack and how they ultimately convinced the US District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania that the DOJ had to live up to its amnesty deal with Stolt.
