"Top 15 stories of the year" Greenville GSA Business


On December 31, 2009 GSA Business published an article entitled "Top 15 stories of the year." Nexsen Pruet attorney Billy Wilkins made the list at #12 - "Wilkins represents high-profile cases."
The paper writes - "Former U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeal Chief Judge Billy Wilkins has been a busy man as an attorney for Nexsen Pruet LLC in 2009. In May, he successfully argued the jury’s findings in a case against Target Corp. Seeking a motion for a new trial, a judge denied Target’s motion after a jury awarded a Greer woman $3.1 million for wrongfully accusing her of trying to use counterfeit bills at a store on Wade Hampton Boulevard in 2006. But perhaps the most high profile case was that of John Ludwig Jr. Wilkins represented the Greenville entrepreneur, who pled guilty to crashing his Maserati through a home, killing a man. Ludwig received no jail time, but three years probation and 500 hours of community service."
