Leo Kirch: Lawsuit against Deutsche Bank won

Media entrepreneur Leo Kirch has won another stage victory against Deutsche Bank. According to SDA, the Frankfurt Regional Court ruled in favor of a lawsuit filed by Kirch and several other shareholders. In its ruling, the court declared seven resolutions passed at Deutsche Bank's Annual General Meeting in May 2008 null and void. The reasons given were that the invitation to the Annual General Meeting was formally incorrect. Kirch has been involved in a legal dispute with Germany's largest bank for years because he holds it partly responsible for the decline of his media empire.
