Default Working for the Weekend: The Lawyers on the Citi Bailout



The buzz in these parts this morning is all about Citigroup, the latest beneficiary of government largesse. The financial-services behemoth, whose stock last week fell off a cliff, last night reached a deal with government officials whereby the government would absorb potentially hundreds of billions in losses on toxic assets. Click here for the WSJ story; here for the NYT account.

A whole mess of lawyers worked deep into the night. Repping Citi: a team lawyers from Davis Polk & Wardwell that included Gar Bason, Randall Guynn, Louis Goldberg and Avishai Shachar.

Repping the New York Fed: a team from Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton that included partners Mark Walker, Ray Check and Kimberly Blacklow, and counsel Sandra Rocks.
