Supreme Court Rules in Favor of Enron CEO
-----------------------------------------



The Supreme Court has ruled in favor of former Enron CEO Jeffrey
Skilling in a decision that will make it harder for prosecutors to file
charges in corruption cases. The Court threw out a law that makes it a
crime to “deprive another of the intangible right of honest services."
The ruling could affect the sentence of Enron’s Jeffrey Skilling and
newspaper executive Conrad Black.
