Apfelbaum pleads guilty to bid-rigging conspiracy |
 | | The criminal prosecution of Apfelbaum and perhaps others yet to be named parallels a civil antitrust case brought in New York federal court July 23, 2001, by the attorneys general of New York, California and Maryland. |
 | | Apfelbaum, de Cherisey, Felder, Okey, Osborne and Quirijns "placed bids and purchased stamp lots at auctions held in New York, California, Maryland and elsewhere, and participated in rigging bids for those auctions," the suit said. |
 | | These individuals participated in rigging bids at stamp auctions at various points in time during the Ring's existence. |
