Tom Kirkendall continues his masterful coverage and analysis of Enron-related trials and appeals, with this comprehensive post on the appeal in the Nigerian Barge case. He notes, among other things, the significance of hearsay evidence and questionable application of the relevant statute.
Tom deserves significant credit for keeping this case, with its strong overtones of government overreaching, in the public eye. It's a good example of how bloggers, by focusing on what's going on in their backyard, provide a valuable, Hayekian, information mechanism.
