He was appointed CFO in 1999 under CEO John Roth. After Roth retired, Dunn became the CEO in November 2001 until he was fired for cause, along with several financial executives in April 2004. On June 19, 2008, Dunn (then aged 54) was arrested by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, along with two other former Nortel executives, charged with fraud affecting the public market, falsification of books and documents and producing a false prospectus.〔(CRIMINAL CHARGES LAID AGAINST FORMER TOP EXECUTIVES OF NORTEL NETWORKS CORPORATION (“NORTEL”) ).
