Second Circuit -- Smith v. SEC

Smith v. SEC

No abuse of discretion in Magistrate Judge's unfreezing of real estate asset during SEC prosecution, as the value of the property was declining quickly, and given likely success on the merits, a quick sale by the government was the most equitable remedy.
