Fromer v. Yogel

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• stating that “[t]he majority view appears to be that contribution among joint tortfeasors is limited to ‘joint participants’ in the fraud alleged by the plaintiff.”
• stating that allowing indemnification in such circumstances would “allow a tortfeasor to shift liability for intentional misconduct onto another joint tortfeasor and thereby undercut the deterrence goals of the securities laws.”
• noting that courts have applied both three-year and six-year limitations periods, to negligent misrepresentations claims and concluding that a six-year period applies where the allegations underlying such claims also state causes pf action for fraud
