Yellowstone Injunctions Not Automatic
A <i>Yellowstone</i> injunction allows a tenant that has been served with a notice to cure an alleged lease default to litigate in Supreme Court whether or not there has been a default, without the risk of losing the lease if the court finds a default. The injunction tolls the running of the tenant's time to cure the alleged default. So, even if there is a determination at the end of the lawsuit adverse to the tenant, the tenant still has time to cure and save the lease.

Qui Tam Claims and Derivative Actions
'Parallel proceedings' is a term with which white-collar criminal defense lawyers and in-house counsel are very familiar. It describes the private civil actions that often are concurrently filed when a criminal investigation or charges are disclosed. The civil impact of criminal investigations and prosecutions begin and continue long after resolution of the criminal case. Indeed, once the corporation's alleged fraudulent actions or resulting settlement become public knowledge, often it is only a matter of time before an action is filed against its officers and directors.
