Bogle v. Lawson was a sensational case centering around a million-pound plot to defraud Continental bankers by forged letters of credit. The plot was exposed by a Times of London correspondent in a letter published on 26th May 1840. The naming of Allan George Bogle who was almost certainly involved triggered this libel action against John Joseph Lawson the printer and publisher of the Times. Bogle won the case but thanks to Dobie's skilled defense his victory was costly. The jury granted him a mere farthing in damages and ordered him to pay his own hefty legal expenses. T. unknown

After the failure of a British house Thwaites and Company and after the retention of money in the Chilean branch the Lezica Brothers had to raise money. Originally Hartung procured the signatures of a number of people including Thwaites; but when persons declined he began to forge names on bills of exchange--both the drawer's and drawee's names--in order to prevent bankruptcy.

Daniel McFarland was a hard-drinking drifter and Tammany Hall hack. He flew into a jealous rage when he learned that his ex-wife Abby a famous actress and writer was planning to marry Albert Richardson a popular author and editor at the New York Tribune. Claiming that he was defending his wife's honor even though they were already divorced McFarland shot Richardson at his office. On his deathbed Richardson was married to Abby McFarland by the distinguished minister Henry Ward Beecher. The defense mounted a campaign to vilify Richardson as a seducer and to portray McFarland as a defender of honor and marriage. "Hovering in the background of the trial was the controversial 'unwritten law' that a husband could kill his wife's seducer in the 'heat of passion' without being convicted of murder. McFarland's lawyers drew upon and in the process shaped this evolving 'privilege of irresponsible killing.'.Defense lawyers described McFarland's mental condition as one of 'partial insanity.' They.contrasted this image of a delicate husband with a portrait of a powerful wife-a 'wicked woman'-who yearned for money fame and independence.
