Citigroup Inc. filed a lawsuit Monday against Brigade Capital
Management LP, seeking the return of the hedge-fund manager's share
of nearly $900 million payment that Citi said it paid by mistake to
Revlon Inc. lenders.
Brigade "has unlawfully attempted to capitalize on the mistaken
payment, " Citi said in the complaint, filed in New York federal
court on Monday. Brigade and other lenders have taken the position
that they aren't obligated to return the money, The Wall Street
Journal reported Friday.
Revlon has said it didn't pay the money itself. In the lawsuit,
Citi said the payment came from the bank's own funds.
