A Massachusetts judge is allowing most of a lawsuit involving a string of car dealerships in southern Maine to move forward.
The Superior Court judge dismissed a couple of counts in the lawsuit filed by David Rosenberg, who in 2017 sold most of his stake in Prime Motors to New York-based investment firm GPB Capital Holdings for $235 million. Rosenberg was named chief executive of the expanded company, renamed Prime Automotive Group, which is based in Massachusetts and owns 40 dealerships in the Northeast. But Rosenberg soon complained about financial misdeeds he said he uncovered and exercised an option that allowed him to sell the rest of his stock to the company.
