Kaiser Industries dissolution blocked by judge ruling
US District Judge Bruce Thompson refused to block Kaiser Industries planned dissolution. First asset distribution set for Friday. Six stockholders filed suit April 20 contending asset division among holders was not in shareholders' best interests. They urged selling controlling blocks of Kaiser Steel, Kaiser Aluminum and Kaiser Cement to gain a premium, but the judge deemed such a sale unlikely and noted tax concerns and lack of proven trustee conflict.
