Public companies that decide to exclude a shareholder proposal from their proxy statements are no longer the only parties facing lawsuits in the wake of Corp Fin’s move away from Rule 14a-8 no-action letters. Late last week, ICCR and As You Sow filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia seeking to stop the implementation of the new policy. The complaint in ICCR vs. SEC alleges that the change in approach violated the Administrative Procedure Act.
