Former Girardi Keese partner David Lira has entered a guilty plea in connection with the Lion Air crash of 2018. Scheduled for trial next month, Lira admitted to one count of failing to comply with a court order related to settlement payments due to Lion Air clients involving Boeing. The plea follows the recent sentencing of the firm’s founder, Tom Girardi, who received over seven years in federal prison. The case has been before U.S. District Judge Mary Rowland of the Northern District of Illinois. Further details are available here.
