AIG Slams Bank of America at Settlement Hearing

I'm not a lawyer Amanda but from what I understand BONY just has to prove that based on what they knew at the time they negotiated, they made reasonable decisions. Arguing that as facts changed years later and scenarios seem less

Has Elon Musk Finally Gone Too Far?
