• Terry Oxford and partner Ophelia Camina win $226 million fraud verdict and judgment for Dillard’s.  Their $226 million jury verdict in Dillard’s, Inc. vs. i2 Technologies, Inc. was one of the Top Ten Jury    Verdicts in the United States in 2010 and has been selected for the Texas Jury Verdicts Hall of Fame. Click here to view the article.  The dispute arose after Dillard’s, Inc. (DDS) licensed supply chain software from i2 Technologies, Inc., now a subsidiary of JDA Software Group, Inc. (JDAS).  After five weeks of trial, a Dallas jury found i2 liable for fraud and breach of warranty, awarding over $76 million in benefit-of-the-bargain damages and $150 million in punitive damages against i2. The jury also rejected i2’s counterclaims. After lengthy post-trial motions were heard and denied, a Judgment for over $239 million, including pre-judgment interest, was entered. The case settled on appeal.

• Oxford and partner Jonathan Bridges filed a record-setting qui tam suit under the federal False Claims Act against Oklahoma’s Gold Bank on behalf of a group of the bank’s customers and the federal government. In this loan-fraud action, which Bridges and Oxford litigated on behalf of the federal government, they successfully negotiated what the U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Oklahoma called the largest single settlement ever recovered by the United States in his district. View the Department of Justice’s press release here. In a subsequent class action against the bank, Bridges and Oxford, as co-lead counsel, obtained a settlement that paid an average of more than $20,000 to each member of the class, which consisted of several hundred of the bank’s customers.

Q: Outside your own firm, name an attorney in your field who has impressed you and explain why.

A: Terry Oxford of Susman Godfrey. We were adversaries in an insurance class action in Oregon several years ago — two Texas lawyers arguing over class certification in the Pacific Northwest. He was creative, ethical and persuasive in arguing his case and a great team player when we later found ourselves on the same side, defending our settlement against objectors.
