In the suit, filed Wednesday in Delaware, an affiliate of Alden Global Capital argues that Lee was wrong to deny the nomination of three Alden nominees to the company’s board of directors. The lawsuit, filed by Strategic Investment Opportunities, argues the Lee board infringed on company rules when it denied the board nominee request.
