Better Home & Finance 在联邦法院起诉创始人 Vishal Garg
提起诉讼
Better Home & Finance 在联邦法院对其创始人、前首席执行官 Vishal Garg 提起诉讼,指控其发动“焦土式行动”以重新夺回公司控制权,散布虚假陈述,并在征集股东支持前未向美国证券交易委员会提交所需的委托书声明。公司寻求判定 Garg 声称已获得的股东支持无效,并申请禁令禁止其在至少 30 天内继续征集投资者支持。Garg 否认指控,称唯一可能违反证券法的是临时首席执行官 Daniel Lewis 和董事会。

The company requested a legal order to nullify all of the shareholder support Garg claims to have gathered so far, arguing that it was obtained through deceptive practices.
Garg wrote that 'the only people who may have committed securities law violations are Daniel Lewis and the board', referring directly to the newly appointed interim chief executive.
Better Home & Finance has filed a lawsuit against its founder in federal court, accusing the ousted executive of orchestrating a 'scorched-earth campaign' to forcefully regain control of the business.
