New District Court Ruling on the Foreign Agents Registration Act
On October 12, 2022, the United States District Court for
the District of Columbia dismissed the suit in Attorney
General of the USA v. Stephen A. Wynn. The case involved a
complaint made by the Department of Justice alleging that
Wynn had acted as an agent of the People's Republic of
China in 2017 and failed to register as a foreign agent
under the Foreign Agents Registration Act. The District
Court dismissed the suit because it found that the statute
of limitations had expired according to the binding ruling
of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals in United States v.
McGoff.
