Reuther – A group of wealthy clients who invested $50 million with two hedge funds felled by last year’s credit crisis are accusing Highland Capital Management’s partners of having lied about key facts.
LV Highland Credit Feeder Fund LLC, an investment vehicle managed by Long Vue Advisors in Boston, and several charitable foundations and wealthy individuals filed the lawsuit on Wednesday in a U.S. district court in Dallas.
The group is charging that the Dallas-based hedge fund firm and its co-founders James Dondero and Mark Okada and three other partners were dishonest about other clients’ requests to exit the funds at a time of increasing market turmoil.
