Kushner Sued Over Disputed Funds from Register Purchase

By: Kevin Roderick | LA Observed

Former shareholders in Freedom Communications allege that buyer Aaron Kushner has wrongly held back $17 million from the 2012 purchase deal that put him in charge of the Orange County Register.

They have sued in Delaware court, according to the LA Times, which says that Kushner contends the funds are part of making good on fraudulent financial information provided to him when he bought the OC paper and its parent company.
