The legality of KordaMentha’s decision to endorse CBS Corporation’s acquisition of Ten Network rather than the offer of Lachlan Murdoch and Bruce Gordon has been questioned in court. Lawyers acting for Gordon argued that it is up to Ten’s creditors and their advisers to assess the merits of competing bids and chose the best one, rather than the administrator. Meanwhile, KordaMentha has released a supplementary report to creditors in response to claims by Gordon that its first report lacked sufficient detail.
