Out the Door:
* CNET’s former general counsel, Sharon Le Duy — resigns — another casualty of the stock options backdating scandals.
Lateral Moves:
* ERISA lawyer Dana Scott Fried, to Loeb & Loeb, from Brown Raysman Millstein Felder & Steiner.
Is Dana Fried an ERISA hottie? Perhaps. You be the judge; here’s his bio (with photo).
* Corporate and securities lawyer Mark Thierfelder, to Dechert, from O’Melveny & Myers.
* Tax specialist James Tander, corporate lawyer Patrick de Carbuccia, and real estate lawyer Michael Pollack, all to Reed Smith (NY); they come from, respectively, Skadden Arps (as counsel), Willkie Farr (as an associate), and British trusts and estates boutique Withers Bergman (as head of the real estate practice).
