Fourth Circuit Sidesteps 'Stoneridge' In Case Against Investment Advisor
Robert J. Malionek, a partner at Latham & Watkins, writes that on May 7, 2009, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit reversed the dismissal of a �10(b) securities fraud action brought by shareholders of a concern against the concern's investment advisor, even though the advisor did not make the allegedly fraudulent statements. The Fourth Circuit held that, even though the alleged misstatements were made in prospectuses issued by subsidiary fund companies, all of which have separate management, and even though no statements in the prospectuses were attributed to the advisor, it is reasonable for the public to infer that the statements were sufficiently "made" by the advisor to give rise to �10(b) liability against it.Energy Transfer to buy Sunoco to add oil, gas logistics

But Schiff Hardin partners aren't likely to see the money anytime soon. Thelen's accounts receivable are getting stale since its partners voted to dissolve in December, and it still owes millions to Citigroup. If Thelen files for bankruptcy, Schiff Hardin will have to compete with other unsecured creditors for what's left.Trending Stories
