An American aviation executive has had British judgments worth more than $4 million against him thrown out after a judge ruled that his legal opponent had covered up its use of hackers to steal the businessman’s emails in order to win the case. High Court Justice Michael Green said last week that the 2016 lawsuit filed against Missouri-based businessman Farhad Azima by his former business partner, a United Arab Emirates investment fund called RAKIA, was an "egregious case" that had the "somewhat extraordinary consequence that they obtained judgments by fraud." In addition, the judge ordered that Azima be paid about 8 million pounds ($10 million) in costs and damages.
