		<description><![CDATA[A Suffolk County, N.Y., judge has ruled that a contractor's filing of amended tax returns claiming $1.6 million of additional income on the eve of his divorce trial was simply a malicious attempt to prevent his wife from recovering marital assets, and therefore has refused to apportion the couple's new tax liability. After hearing testimony from a variety of fact and expert witnesses, the court determined that the husband had a single, illegitimate reason for belatedly reporting his business' income.]]></description>

The Supreme Court ruled that once a writ of habeas corpus is granted, the courts "generally" should order the parole board to conduct a new hearing where it considers all relevant evidence consistent with due process -- and not order prisoners released or direct what evidence the board considers.]]></description>

The bill, which would have provided free health care and compensation payments, failed to win the needed two-thirds majority. The vote, 255-159, fell largely along party lines.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ (Reuters) - A group led by former all-star pitcher Nolan Ryan and a minor league baseball team owner made a new bid to buy the bankrupt Texas Rangers in a move that would block an auction for the Major League Baseball team set for next week. The Rangers&#8217; bankruptcy court-appointed chief restructuring officer, William Snyder, said at a court hearing on Friday that he supports the new offer, according to a person who attended the hearing by telephone. The source did not want to be identified because of this person&#8217;s proximity to the sale process. Snyder did not offer details, the person said. The new bid would entail canceling the auction, Snyder said, according to this person. The hearing where Snyder made his remarks was in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Fort Worth, Texas]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ (Reuters) Oaktree Capital, a senior debtholder in German aluminum company Almatis, ratcheted up its fight against Almatis&#8217;s equity owner, Dubai International Capital, over the best way to restructure the bankrupt company, according to court documents. Oaktree objected to Almatis&#8217; continued use of cash collateral, which companies need to cover operating costs and other expenses while in bankruptcy. Oaktree also said it is in talks with Almatis on an alternative restructuring plan. Oaktree, a major investor in financially hobbled companies, helped develop Almatis&#8217; original restructuring plan, which was abandoned last week when Almatis inked a replacement financing deal with Dubai International Capital LLC [DUBAHP.UL]. Under the new plan, Dubai International plans to pay off the company&#8217;s senior debt in full. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ (Reuters) - The auction for Italian business management software group TeamSystem will conclude within weeks, with Sage (SGE.L) heading the field with a bid of up to 650 million euros, people familiar with the matter said. British accountancy-software group Sage is vying with private-equity groups Cinven and HgCapital to buy the business from U.S private equity firm Bain Capital, the people said, with bids expected from all three on Friday. Buying TeamSystem would be the first major deal for Newcastle-based Sage for a number of years, and would fill the in-tray of incoming CEO Guy Berruyer. Sage has a history of acquisitions and analysts have said TeamSystem, which provides tax, payroll and budgeting software for small and medium sized businesses, would be a good fit. The company, however, is cautious about overpaying, and earlier in July pulled out of a bidding war over Polish IT provider Teta as it could not justify raising its offer.  Sage, Cinven, HG Capital and Bain declined to comment.

		<description><![CDATA[ A couple of notes from the world of institutionalized super-angels, via filings with the SEC: First up is Floodgate, the firm formerly known as (Mike) Maples Investments. It has raised $73.5 million for its third fund, which more than doubles the $33 million raised for Fund II back in 2008. Next we have Dave McClure, who is raising up to $30 million for a fund called 500 Startups (which would work out to $60k per startup &#8212; but I&#8217;m thinking it&#8217;s more a play off the name of his blog). The filing does not indicate any commitments yet, nor any partners beyond McClure&#8230; As an aside: I last saw both Maples and McClure at a Silicon Valley event hosted by TheFunded back in February. The basic explanation for raising institutional funds was as follows: Angels can usually move quicker than can traditional VC firms, due to more centralized decision-making (i.e., one guy). That gives angels an advantage, since startups need cash now. In many cases, however, a single angel won&#8217;t do]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ During a media call last Thursday, Blackstone Group president Tony James said: &#8220;We’ve had first closings in our cleantech fund and a final closing for BCP VI. We have a few investors still completing documentation and we current anticipate BCP VI to end up at approximately $13.5 billion.” Seems I heard the first part (final closing for BCP VI) and not the contradictory second part. But I got kind of curious, when the Oregon Investment Council approved a $200 million commitment to BCP VI this week. And then an LP source noted that Oregon was not the only LP that hadn’t made a final decision as of James’ pronouncement. So what gives? It would appear that James veered a bit off script during the media call – he was more exact in the subsequent analyst call – and overstated the situation. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Digital Sky Technologies reportedly plans to go public next year in New York, and already has hired Goldman Sachs as a lead underwriter. For the uninitiated, DST is a Russian Internet conglomerate known for taking minority stakes in companies like Facebook, Zynga and Groupon. It also has lots of local investments, including in leading Russian web portal Mail.ru. Matthew Ingram described DST as a “mutual fund of hot startups.” He&#8217;s largely right, except that mutual funds disclose financial information on underlying portfolio companies (or at least it&#8217;s easy to find, since the companies are publicly-traded). DST, on the other hand, may not be required to tell shareholders much more than company name and date of investment. In other words, a DST IPO won&#8217;t open the Pandora&#8217;s Box that worried so many VCs during the public pension transparency debatse of 2002 and 2003. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ (Reuters) - Domestic private equity firm Pravi Capital, set up by former ICICI Venture executives, plans to raise $200 million to invest as growth capital in privately held Indian companies, a top official said. Pravi Capital was founded by executives including three officials who held senior management posts in ICICI Venture, the private equity arm of No.2 Indian lender ICICI Bank (ICBK.BO). &#8220;We are in the process of putting the rest of the team together, including operating experts. We are planning to raise $200 million, and will start the fundraising process in the last quarter of this year,&#8221; Jayanta Banerjee, one of the founding partners at Pravi Capital, told Reuters. Banerjee, who was the president of the private equity practice at ICICI Venture, along with two other directors, Anand Vyas and Sunay Mathure, left the fund in May this year. ICICI Venture manages more than $2 billion of assets. &#8220;We prefer to invest in the lower-end of the mid-market segment, where the founding team has relevant experience. ]]></description>
