In In re National Century Financial Enterprises, Inc. Investment Litigation, Lieff Cabraser serves as Lead Counsel for the New York City Employees' Retirement System, Teachers' Retirement System for the City of New York, New York City Police Pension Fund, and New York City Fire Department Pension Fund in a securities fraud and breach of fiduciary duties lawsuit against Bank One, JPMorgan Chase Bank, Credit Suisse First Boston LLC, and additional defendants.

The complaint charges that plaintiffs suffered $89 million in losses as a result of a massive Ponzi scheme orchestrated and implemented by National Century Financial Enterprises and defendants. To date, the funds have recovered approximately 60% of their losses through settlements and bankruptcy recoveries. Lieff Cabraser continues to prosecute the case against the non-settling defendants.

Likewise, Lieff Cabraser represented Kofuku Bank, Namihaya Bank and Kita Hyogo Shinyo-Kumiai (a credit union) in individual lawsuits against, among others, Martin A.
