☆ Trump clemency recipient Philip Esformes pleads guilty in Medicare fraud case
  + stars: | 2024-02-22 | by ( Kevin Breuninger | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Philip Esformes on Thursday pleaded guilty to health care fraud, resolving the Justice Department's years-long effort to prosecute the convicted fraudster after then-President Donald Trump commuted his 20-year prison sentence. Esformes pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit health care fraud, according to filings in federal court in Miami, Florida. Trump commuted Esformes' sentence during his final days in the White House, a period during which he granted dozens of other requests for executive clemency. The commutation canceled Esformes' prison term, but not his 2019 conviction on 20 criminal counts. Five months after Trump commuted Esformes' sentence, the DOJ said it would seek to re-try him on those remaining six counts.

☆ Trump clemency recipient Philip Esformes reaches plea deal in Medicare fraud case
  + stars: | 2024-02-01 | by ( Dan Mangan | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Convicted Medicare fraudster Philip Esformes has reached a plea deal that could resolve a long-running, complicated criminal case that has included his 20-year prison sentence being commuted by former President Donald Trump in 2020, court filings show. Terms of Esformes' plea agreement with the Department of Justice were not included in the filings Thursday. A Miami federal judge scheduled Esformes' change of plea hearing and sentencing for Feb. 22. Esformes' lawyers have said they are unaware of any other case in which the DOJ retried a defendant whose criminal sentence in the same case was commuted by a president. Prosecutors at the time said it was "the largest single criminal health care fraud case ever brought against individuals" by the DOJ.

☆ Philip Esformes, whose prison sentence Trump commuted, loses appeal and faces retrial on health-care fraud charges
  + stars: | 2023-01-20 | by ( Dan Mangan | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
A Florida nursing home owner whose 20-year prison sentence for a $1.3 billion Medicare fraud scheme was commuted by then-President Donald Trump in late 2020 has lost a federal court appeal and now appears headed for retrial on six health-care criminal charges that a jury previously deadlocked on. A three-judge panel at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit unanimously rejected Esformes' appeal in a ruling earlier this month. Esformes' lawyers have indicated they plan to request a rehearing of their appeal by the entire line-up of the judges on the 11th Circuit. Esformes' lawyers had argued that a new trial on that would violate Trump's clemency action, as well as the double jeopardy clause. If Esformes is convicted at a retrial in federal court in Southern Florida, it is likely that his lawyers will relaunch their argument on appeal that retrial was barred by Trump's clemency.
