Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and ContingenciesWe believe that we will generate excess cash from property operations in the next twelve months; such excess, however, might not be sufficient to discharge all of our obligations as they become due. We intend to sell income-producing assets, refinance real estate and obtain additional borrowings primarily secured by real estate to meet our liquidity requirements. We were a defendant in litigation with David Clapper and related entities (collectively, "Clapper”) regarding a multifamily property transaction that occurred in 1988. The litigation led to a substantial judgment against our affiliate and Clapper subsequently sued numerous other entities, including us,in Federal Court to collect that judgment. The case was tried to a jury in May 2021. The jury found the defendants owed Clapper nothing and the Court issued a take nothing judgment. Clapper subsequently filed an appeal to the US Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. In February 2019, Paul Berger ("Berger") filed suit against us and others that alleged that our subsidiary IOR completed improper sales and/or transfers of property. Berger sought to proceed derivatively and directly, requested a payoff of various related party loans to IOR and that IOR then distribute the funds to its stockholders. After discovery and motions to dismiss substantial portions of the complaint, on June 28, 2022, Plaintiff Berger sought to voluntarily dismiss the action for reasons stated in the motion. The parties have not entered into any settlement, and neither Berger nor their counsel has received any consideration for the voluntary dismissal. The parties, through counsel, have stipulated to the dismissal with prejudice. On June 29, 2022, the United States District Court ordered that notice of the dismissal be provided to IOR shareholders. A copy of the required notice was filed as an exhibit to a Form 8-K of IOR for event occurring June 29, 2022 (the date of the Court’s order), and on July 7, 2022, a copy of the required notice was posted on IOR’s website. If no action is taken by one or more other stockholders of IOR prior to August 19, 2022, the Court may enter an order dismissing the Berger case with prejudice.
