Ex-Bear Stearns manager wins email ruling

Emails written by Tannin and his former boss at Bear Stearns Asset Management, Ralph Cioffi, are central to the prosecution’s case against the two men — the first high- profile Wall Streeters to be criminally charged stemming from problems with subprime mortgages and overall liquidity.
