He clerked at the US Department of Justice, Civil Division taking part in handling complex class action litigation. Mr. Nyombi took a summer clerking at the Supreme Court of Uganda where he learnt about growth of jurisprudence, social justice and the application of the law to reformation of various aspects of society.
Mr. Nyombi set a precedent in US Federal law specifically concerning the application of the Fair Credit Reporting Act to the trucking industry while arguing as lead Counsel; See, Maiteki v. Marten Transportation Ltd, F. Supp. 2d, 2013 WL 6355923 (D. Colo. Dec. 4, 2013).The case was pivotal with regards to employment background reports in the trucking industry. The Court held that each re-report of allegedly false information in a consumer’s background report triggers a new duty to conduct a reasonable investigation, which in turn restarts the limitations period for an FCRA claim based on the failure to conduct a reasonable investigation. Mr. Nyombi has set other precedents while arguing in various cases in Federal Court.
