Quinn Emanuel’s Triumph Over the Largest Manufacturer of Ghost Guns

John is joined by Robert M. (“Bobby”) Schwartz, a partner in Quinn Emanuel’s Los Angeles office and Andrew Brayton, an associate in that office.  They discuss how Bobby and Andrew won a settlement on behalf of the State of California against Polymer 80, the largest manufacturer and distributor of ghost guns, in which Polymer agreed to a permanent injunction barring it from selling ghost guns in California and to pay $5 million in penalties.  They also discuss their legal strategies, the discovery process, and the importance of the case in terms of protecting both law enforcement officers and the public.
