Winston Wins Second Circuit Revival of Relevent’s Antitrust Suit, Unlocking U.S. Access to Global Soccer Matches

Won a major Second Circuit victory for Relevent Sports Group, LLC, a sports promoter that organizes soccer matches in the U.S. involving professional teams from non-U.S. leagues. A unanimous Second Circuit panel—repeatedly citing and quoting Winston’s briefs and oral argument—vacated the district court’s decision and revived Relevent’s antitrust suit against FIFA and the U.S. Soccer Federation, challenging a FIFA rule prohibiting official-season professional soccer games from being played outside a team or league’s FIFA-designated country. Am Law recognized the March 2023 win with a “LOTW” Runner-Up nod. With DOJ and Solicitor General support, we defeated Supreme Court review, leading to settlements with both defendants and paving the way for U.S.-venued foreign-league games....Read more

ESOP Class Claims Flop

After an eleven-day bench trial in January 2023, the N.D. Ill. delivered a full defense verdict in March 2025 in an ERISA class action brought by participants in Segerdahl Corporation’s ESOP. The court rejected the class claims against Segerdahl, its ESOP trustee GreatBanc Trust Company, and various individual defendants including board members Bob Cronin, Rod Goldstein, and Peter Mason, alleging that Segerdahl could have sold for a significantly higher price, which would have increased post-sale distributions to the ESOP participants.

Even though five years have passed since Congress enacted the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) as an emergency response to the COVID‑19 pandemic, enforcement activity relating to PPP loans remains an active component of the federal government’s civil fraud agenda and—with the statute of limitations not expiring for another roughly five years—all indications are that it will continue to be an enforcement priority for the foreseeable future.
