Forbes- Shares of railroad operator CSX Corp. may trade actively Thursday after a federal judge’s ruling opened the doors to a proxy battle later this month.
On Wednesday afternoon, the judge ruled that dissident shareholders broke the law in their effort to change CSX’s corporate structure, but did not block them from voting for their nominees to the company’s board.
Jacksonville, Fla.-based CSX had sued the two hedge funds in March, accusing them of using share swap contracts to evade federal securities filing requirements.
