Yeah I was professor -- excuse me -- before I was a professor in the evening hours while I was a judge from 2002 to 2007. And then I resumed full time teaching at the University of Utah in around November of 2007 when I left the bench. Q. Okay. And since you've left the bench, have you also been affiliated with a law firm? A. Yes. Q. Could you tell me what that affiliation is what -- A. Sure. I'm a special counsel with Hatch James and Dodge. It's a law firm, small boutique litigation law firm in Salt Lake City, Utah, and I occasionally do cases with them. Q. Is it fair to say that since 2007, since resigning as a judge, you've been engaged at least on a part-time basis in the practice of law? A. Yes. Q. And, in particular, in one of the cases that's at issue here, what has been referred to as the underlying CVRA case; you're familiar with that case? A. Yeah.

Al Rajhi Bank, Saudi American Bank, DMI Trust, Saleh Kamel, and Dallah al‑Baraka alleged to have knowingly funded al‑Qaeda before 9/11

Al Rajhi Bank, Saudi American Bank, DMI Trust, Saleh Kamel, and Dallah al‑Baraka alleged to have knowingly funded al‑Qaeda before 9/11 The brief details extensive allegations that specific Saudi financial institutions and individuals (including members of the Al Rajhi family and Saleh Kamel) provided material support to al‑Qaeda through charities, front companies, and direct banking services. It cites government warnings, the "Golden Chain" donor list, and multiple intelligence reports, offering concrete leads—names, entities, and alleged transactions—that could be pursued for further investigation or civil litigation. While many of these claims have been previously reported, the compilation of detailed pleading excerpts, corporate structures, and references to newly cited evidence (e.g., Treasury designations, UN resolutions) provides actionable investigative angles. Key insights: Al Rajhi Bank allegedly maintained accounts for known al‑Qaeda front charities and was warned by U.S. officials in 1999 about terrorist financing.; Saudi American Bank is accused of financing al‑Qaeda projects in Sudan and facilitating donations to extremist charities.; DMI Trust and its subsidiaries are described as central financial conduits for al‑Qaeda, with ties to Saudi and Sudanese banks.
