Following GableGotwals’ successful representation of Security Bank & Trust, Co. on its civil claims for fraud, conspiracy, and civil RICO (racketeering) against a former bank customer and a former bank employee, criminal charges were filed by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Northern District of Oklahoma. In 2018, the bank was awarded actual and treble damages in the District Court of Ottawa County, Oklahoma, totaling $3,645,412.80, for a check kiting scheme involving John Theodore Linthicum, a former bank customer, and Angela Asbell, a former bank employee. In his criminal case, Linthicum pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 27 months in federal prison, followed by 5 years of supervised release. He also ordered to pay restitution of $1,215,137.60. Criminal charges against Asbell and a third participant, Doug Mayfield, remain pending.
His practice focuses on administrative and regulatory law, bankruptcy, commercial and insurance law. Before joining the Firm, David served as Deputy General Counsel in the Executive Office of Governor J. Kevin Stitt.
