Dodgers owner Mark Walter sued over alleged failure to disclose federal probe to policyholders
The suit says 67-year-old Ira Rosner was not told about the probe before his policy’s withdrawal deadline and seeks damages for fraud and contract claims.
- On Wednesday, 67-year-old Florida man Ira Rosner filed a class-action lawsuit in District Court in Miami against Los Angeles Dodgers owner Mark Walter, alleging he and his insurance companies failed to disclose an ongoing federal investigation to customers.
- Walter has been under investigation since last year by the Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York and the Securities and Exchange Commission following a whistleblower complaint regarding misrepresented loans made between companies within his business portfolio.
- The lawsuit names TWG Global Holdings, Guggenheim Partners, Delaware Life Insurance, and Clear Spring Life and Annuity as defendants, with Rosner claiming companies directed policyholders' "money into Walter's" other businesses while concealing the federal probe until June.
- Amid legal scrutiny, Walter sold the Los Angeles Lakers and his stake in English Premier League club Chelsea with co-owner Todd Boehly, while TWG Global denied wrongdoing last month regarding the probe.
- The Los Angeles Dodgers have maintained Walter has no plans to sell the team, though his Lakers sale—completed less than a year after purchasing the NBA franchise from the Buss family—remains under league review.
