Joe Kerr and Chris Zulanas recently won rights for their client to collect millions of dollars in loose diamonds and jewelry in a federal court forfeiture action. After the FBI solved a jewelry heist, the stolen diamonds and jewelry were forfeited to the United States. Following the forfeiture, a hotly contested ownership dispute ensued. Following a victory at the trial court level, opposing parties appealed and Mr. Kerr and Mr. Zulanas won the appeal at the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals. Friedman’s lawyers were pleased to deliver this result to their client.
