Exclusive: Runaway Swiss Businessman Returns to Dallas… In Handcuffs

A Swiss arbitration ruled that Rudolf Suter owed $2 million to a Florida investor from a failed business deal. Suter ignored it. When the investor discovered he was living large in Texas, the investor sought and received a judgment from a Dallas federal court. Suter filed for bankruptcy. He ignored that until he was threatened with jail. And when a Dallas federal judge decided to hold a contempt hearing, Suter caught a British Airways jet for London.

Last month, Suter was arrested when he tried to return to the U.S. He was returned to Dallas, cuffed hand and foot, for a hearing last Friday and was presented with a whole new legal problem: federal charges for lying during his bankruptcy proceedings.

“He has been avoiding the U.S. legal system for over five years,” said one of the lawyers involved. “Although it took a while, it looks like the system has caught up with him.”

Pipeline Industry Notches Win at Texas Supreme Court in Eminent Domain Case

Lawyers for energy interests praised the ruling as restoring stability to pipeline planning, while advocates for landowners said the decision gives pipelines a sort of get-out-of-jail-free card by letting them retroactively prove eminent domain authority. The Texas Lawbook has full details.

  • P.S. — New State Bar President Launches Campaign to Fund Legal Aid for Low-Income Texans  - When speaking to fellow lawyers, Santos Vargas often asks them a question to illustrate a point. “How many of you could hire yourselves for a protracted legal dispute?” The point is that many people don’t have the financial means to hire a lawyer when faced with a legal problem, which is why the newly minted State Bar of Texas president is on a campaign to raise money for low-income Texans to access legal services. Vargas aims to raise $300,000, with July donations supporting victims of the recent Texas Hill Country flood.  July 11, 2025Krista Torralva
