(NYSE:JPM), along with Barclays and Fifth Third, won the dismissal of a lawsuit brought by investors over the collapse of subprime auto lender Tricolor. U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff in Manhattan threw out the case, with reasoning to follow. Holders of more than $270 million in Tricolor asset-backed notes had accused the banks of ignoring warning signs while financing and securitizing Tricolor’s auto loans. The banks argued the investors had alleged negligence at most, not intent to defraud. All three banks have reported nine-figure losses tied to Tricolor, which filed for liquidation in September.
