2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority““We also hold that expenses from related litigation and damages from inability to plan as a result of that litigation are not recoverable. These damages are not a direct consequence of defendants’ alleged fraud. Taking the complaint as true, these damages are a result of the liquidator’s gross misperception of what actually happened. Defendants could not have foreseen that a third party would blame their fraud on the plaintiffs. Put another way, the chain of causation has been broken by the independent act of the liquidator.””
