(January 25, 2012) — The first class action lawsuit settlement to be approved for shareholders based outside the United States, since the Supreme Court tightened rules about international investors seeking redress through its legal system in 2010, has thrown a lifeline to asset owners suspicious of corporate fraud.

Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
