Law360, New York (July 23, 2009, 10:47 PM ET) -- Following nearly a decade of litigation, Cendant Corp. has lost an appeal of an almost $98 million judgment in a suit launched by CSI Investment Partners II Inc. accusing the disgraced travel and real estate giant of breaching an acquisition agreement and committing securities fraud.
A three-judge panel in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit affirmed the lower court’s ruling on July 1 for reasons stated in the earlier opinion, according to a mandate released on Wednesday.
