Judge rejects injunction to halt Kaiser Industries dissolution
District Judge Bruce Thompson refused to block Kaiser Industries plan to dissolve, allowing the first asset distributions to proceed Friday. Six stockholders from Pennsylvania and Florida had sued April 20, claiming the plan would harm shareholders, but Thompson denied the request, noting no evident 60 percent premium sale or conflicts of interest and that proxy materials were truthful. The suit argued for selling Kaiser Steel, Kaiser Aluminum, and Kaiser Cement in blocks to gain a premium, while Kaiser argued tax implications would erase any premium gains.
