SDNY COURTHOUSE, June 8 – The U.S. Department of Labor  has been trying to enforce an administrative subpoena against investment bank CSG Partners, which provides services to ESOPs.  

      On June 8, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it. 

   Judge Lehrburger hear some final arguments, including from DOL about the difficulties posed by investment banks claiming privilege to not produce documents about ESOPs in response to DOL subpoenas.

  Then Judge Lehrburger issued a length oral order, granting in part (and denying in part) DOL's requests.

At the end he asked how long it will take CSG to produce the records they now must. The answer was, Three weeks.

The case is US Department of Labor v. CSG Partners, LLC, 21-mc-345 (Woods / Lehrburger)
