The lawyer for late copper heiress Huguette Clark — who is also a beneficiary of her will — has hired a top jury-selection expert to help beat back the case brought by 19 members of the rich recluse’s family, who are trying to get the document declared invalid.
Joshua Dubin helped pick juries for the 2005 “Murder Inc” trial of record label bigs Irv and Chris Gotti where the defendants were acquitted on all counts of money laundering.
He also did so for the defense of Rutgers student Dharun Ravi, who got off with a mere 30-day jail sentence after using a spycam on gay roommate Tyler Clementi, who leaped to his death from the George Washington Bridge in 2010.
Dubin said he’s been powwowing “around the clock” with attorneys for Clark lawyer Wallace Bock for the past month. Jury selection starts Tuesday.
Bock stands to inherit $500,000 and the potentially lucrative position of overseeing a $45 million foundation from Clark’s massive California estate.
