Law360 (February 24, 2021, 6:53 PM EST) -- A Florida state judge on Monday declined to unseal allegations of corruption leveled against Toyota by an ex-WilmerHale temp who worked on an internal document review project related to the automaker's operations in Thailand.
Judge Curt Jacobus found that a motion filed by nonparty Luca Roveda, a self-described "member of the press" in Thailand, seeking to vacate the court's previous sealing order would need to be thrown out and refiled. According to the judge, Roveda's attorney Tino Gonzales was still technically counsel for former BigLaw attorney and WilmerHale temp Andrew Delaney, the "John Doe" plaintiff in the case.
