HeraldTribune.com – An attorney representing newsletter writer Don Rowe, who strongly recommended Arthur G. Nadel’s hedge funds to some investors, is seeking to have a civil fraud suit against his client dismissed.

In an Aug. 3 filing in circuit court in Sarasota County, Tampa attorney Edward O. Savitz claims that Rowe was not the ultimate cause of the investors’ losses: He did not sell or offer any securities and some of the plaintiff’s claims are barred because too much time has passed.

Sarasota attorney Drew Clayton is representing 11 investors in Nadel’s failed hedge funds and seeking damages of $5.4 million. All his clients were subscribers to one of the publications Rowe published from Sarasota: ”Wall Street Digest” or ”Carnegie Asset Management Inc. Reports.”
