The lawsuit seeks to recover $750 million in damages for Jones Day’s role in helping its former client, Schulz Holding GmbH & Co. KG (“Schulz”), fraudulently induce Precision into purchasing Schulz’s subsidiaries for roughly €800 million. Precision already has a judgment against Schulz for the fraud. The lawsuit against Jones Day alleges that Jones Day was aware of Schulz’s fraud and took overt acts to help conceal and misrepresent the true financial condition of the Schulz’s subsidiaries.
