Judge Threatens to Force Waksal to Trial
From Associated Press
A federal judge threatened to force ImClone Systems Inc. founder Samuel D. Waksal to go to trial unless he and his lawyers provide personal information necessary to sentence him on his securities fraud plea.
“Absolutely nothing has been provided, not even a Social Security card,” Manhattan U.S. District Judge William H. Pauley said.
Pauley told lawyers that he would schedule a trial on other charges to which Waksal did not enter a plea if he did not see speedy progress toward a sentencing that he set for March 17.
