(Bloomberg) Credit Suisse Group AG must pay Highland Capital Management $121 million for a failed 2007 Las Vegas real estate deal, a Texas state court ruled.
The ruling follows a decision by the Texas Supreme Court in April 2020 throwing out $287.5 million in damages awarded to Credit Suisse by a Dallas trial judge and ordering the court to recalculate the $40 million awarded by a jury. The jury found that the bank had inflated the appraisal used to finance a golf development ahead of the 2008 housing crash.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A U.S. appeals court on Tuesday revived a lawsuit accusing Credit Suisse Group AG of causing huge losses by defrauding investors in a complex product for betting on stock market swings that lost 96% of its value in a single day.
The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan said investors could try to prove Credit Suisse intended to collapse the market for its VelocityShares Daily Inverse VIX Short-Term Exchange-Traded Notes ( XIV Notes ) through just 15 minutes of its own trading of futures contracts.
