Lisa Berry, whom you may know as Linden Lab’s present General Counsel, has been battling a four-year civil suit from the Securities and Exchange Commission over alleged fraudulent stock option backdating during her tenure as General Counsel for Juniper Networks and KLA-Tencor Corp.
Berry settled the suit with the SEC last week, agreeing to pay US$350,000 in penalties and approximately US$77,000 in profits from the stock activities. Berry holds an LLM in Taxation from the University of Florida School of Law, a JD from the University of Miami School of Law and a BBA from the University of Miami.
