A “special litigation committee” to monitor expensive and risky lawsuits?

By

An article in Compliance Week (July 7, 2010) by José Tabuena, SVP of governance and compliance with PhyServe Physician Services, mentions a function I have never seen. “One example of where legal and audit teams can cooperate is in financial statement disclosures. Does (or should) the company have a special litigation committee to approve high-cost legal services or pending litigation containing high-risk exposure?”

Having never heard of such a committee or role, I add this post to my brew. Who could be on such a committee? Are there such creatures as special litigation committees?
