Following a two-week bench trial before Justice O. Peter Sherwood of the New York Supreme Court, Dechert achieved a victory today on behalf of Rubin Schron and Cammeby’s Equity Holdings with the court’s ruling that Cam Equity may acquire SavaSeniorCare LLC, a national nursing-home company, through the assumption of $100 million in outstanding debt. In so doing, Justice Sherwood rejected the claims of Sava’s owners, Leonard Grunstein and Murray Forman, that Schron had fallen $120 million short on his lending commitments as a “prevarication” and concluded that the “mendacity of Grunstein and Forman” entitled their story to be given no weight.
