This case is assigned to the Honorable Frederick J. Martone, United States District Court Judge for the District of Arizona, Sandra Day O’Connor United States Courthouse, 401 West Washington Street, Phoenix, Arizona.
Edward William O’Brien III, the former controller of CSK, pleaded guilty to a criminal information, filed under seal on March 19, 2009, and unsealed on April 7, 2009, charging him with one count of obstruction of proceedings before agencies (18 U.S.C. § 1505) stemming from a scheme to thwart a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) investigation into CSK’s accounting practices.
According to the criminal information, O’Brien made material false statements during an internal investigation of CSK’s accounting practices knowing that the information would be passed on to the SEC, which was conducting an investigation into misstatements of CSK’s expenses and income from 2001-2004 with regard to certain vendor allowances in CSK’s books and records.
O’Brien’s sentencing date is scheduled for July 6, 2009 at 2:00 p.m.
