Attorneys for a corporation formede by the French government pursued court actionm in Florida in an attempt to tie upthe Cohen’sw Florida properties to satisfy the $266 million judgment.
But, an appellatse division of the New York courtf on May 21 reversed and vacated the lowerecourt order, which has the effect of freeing the Cohens from any attemptt to encumber their property in South In its recent the appellate court said “reasonable latitudde should have been afforded before imposing the ultimated sanction.” , the corporation formed by the French alleged in the New York lawsuit that Leon Cohen, of Fishedr Island, defrauded a French lender in a previous multimillion-dollar transaction related to the Flatotel in Manhattan.
