Macquarie Capital-backed tug and barge owner Centerline Logistics has won a verdict in a dispute with founder Harley Franco over his ouster as chief executive.
Lawyers for Franco are fighting on, arguing that a judge should not have thrown out a $75m jury verdict, including $35.5m each against two Macquarie entities.
The sparring comes in a heated battle in which Franco alleged in a Seattle court that he was improperly replaced as chief executive of Harley Marine Services, before it was renamed Centerline in 2020.
