RTC Attorney Reprimanded for Trip Arrangements: The Resolution Trust Corp.’s top lawyer fixed a taxpayer-financed business trip to Atlanta last fall that allowed him to take in a Sunday night World Series game, an investigatory report says. Richard T. Aboussie, the acting general counsel for the government’s savings and loan bailout agency, was verbally reprimanded, according to an RTC inspector general’s report. The report, obtained by the Associated Press through the Freedom of Information Act, said Aboussie flew to Atlanta on Oct. 18, 1992, and watched Game 2 of the World Series at the invitation of an RTC contractor.
