Lawyer To Challenge Raid In Alleged $50M NY Dominatrix-Connected Mortgage Fraud Scam

The New York Law Journal reports:
  • Now that a lawyer has been arrested in connection with a bizarre real estate fraud that allegedly recruited straw buyers at a dominatrix club, he has standing to challenge the warrant that authorized a raid on his law office last month, his attorney said Thursday. It is "dangerous precedent to allow a prosecutor to do this in an adversarial system to a lawyer," said Kathy B. Huang, the Manhattan attorney representing George O. Guldi, 55, a former Democratic legislator and Westhampton Beach, N.Y., solo practitioner.
