DLGpc Pursuit of United Producers, Inc. Continues

|

Domina Law Group pc llo won two federal verdicts against Columbus OH based United Producers, Inc., totaling more than $18.3 million dollars. The jury's found wrongful conduct by UPI officials involving its home office in the first case, and active fraud in the second.

In late March 2005, United Producers filed bankruptcy in Ohio. At a May 27 hearing in Columbus, David Domina challenged the company to put forth a plan to satisfy the judgments. When asked to describe the underlying lawsuits to the Court, Domina explained the home-office based wrongdoing, and jury findings. Domina told the court his clients offered settlement terms to keep UPI out of bankruptcy but the proposals were responded to with a proposal for "about 5%" of the balance.

Now, UPI must put up or fold. Its reorganization plan is due by July 5, 2005. Domina's clients have repeatedly expressed concern that UPI is poorly managed and has expressed doubts about the ability of the current management group to lead the company out of bankruptcy and into quality service for its farm customers.
