Las Vegas Sands hid evidence in former executive’s lawsuit-court
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept 14 (Reuters) – Las Vegas Sands
deceived a Nevada court in an attempt to stall a lawsuit by the
former head of its Macau operations, a state judge ruled on
Friday, fining the casino operator and abridging its right to
object in a fight over key evidence.
The ruling gives former Sands China Chief
Executive Steve Jacobs new room to pursue his wrongful
termination case, which has become a public fight over the
leadership and business methods used by Sands Chief Executive
Sheldon Adelson.

Assured says Stockton bankruptcy plan unfair, favors Calpers
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 1 (Reuters) – Bond insurer Assured
Guaranty, facing massive losses in Stockton,
California’s bankruptcy, on Wednesday said the largest U.S.
public pension fund, Calpers, was getting preferential treatment
among creditors.
That may set the stage for a fight over whether cities in
dire circumstances legally have the ability to change
obligations under pension plan benefits agreed to in much better
times. Calpers, the California Public Employees’ Retirement
System, so far has said that the cities don’t have that ability.
