First UBS Client, Rubinstein, Sentenced

The New York Times Deal Book and other publications report today that the first UBS client to plead in the current round, Steven Michael Rubinstein (previously blogged here), was sentenced yesterday to home confinement for one year. If you gotta go, that's the way to go.

Rubinstein is the first of the former UBS clients to be sentenced. Jeffrey Chernick (blogged here and here) will be sentenced tomorrow. I have not seen the sentencing filings in the Chernick case. If any reader has one or more of those filings, I would appreciate receiving them via email -- jack@tjtaxlaw.com.

The New York Times Deal Book report is here.
