records of the New York office of the Francisco Sugar Company related to the manufacture and sale of alcohol distilled from cane molasses. The earliest records in this series appear to have been the files of Jacob Levene, Secretary of the Francisco Sugar Company. Later files may have been generated in the office of Czarnikow-Rionda vice president Michael J. P. Malone. There is considerable documentation on the Sevilla Distillery at the Central Francisco including data on production costs, manufacturing reports, and Cuban tax statements. Of particular note, are the correspondence files and reports from Raphael Katzen Associates, consulting engineers, on plant improvement and product analysis. Records related to sales to European and U.S. customers are also evident. The latter indicate that Francisco also served as a sales agent for other Cuban distilleries.

Under Pressure'

Some Cubans and analysts speculated it was an attempt to control the black market price of the dollar. That has risen to more than twice the official exchange rate since the import-dependent country started opening stores selling in hard currency and stopped selling greenbacks due to a cash crunch. Cuban bank account holders will have until June 21 to deposit dollars before the suspension takes effect.

"It is ever more difficult for Cuba to find international banking or financing institutions willing to receive, convert or process U.S. currency in cash," the Cuban Central Bank said in a statement shared by state-run media. It added that the measure would not affect operations carried out by transfer or deposits in other currencies that are freely convertible and accepted in Cuba.

More than 20 banks have stopped processing transactions involving Cuba since former President Donald Trump tightened U.S. sanctions on the island nation, Central Bank Vice President Yamile Berra Cires said in a roundtable discussion on state television.

The AMC short squeezes will become less and less dangerous for the shorts IMO.

Newer participants to the market see a chart and that AMC is roughly the same price today (assuming we see 30 soon) as it was in 2015 and 2017 but the business has deteriorated, and worse, the O/S is four times larger when it was trading at 30 a share five years ago.

Why participants want to live through a roller coaster, I don't know. I guess they have to experience losses just like we did.

Thanks to a surprising decision by former President Donald Trump in May 2019 allowing people to sue under the Title III provision, owners of property seized by the Cuban government can demand compensation from foreign companies in Cuba "trafficking in stolen property." The provision allows U.S. citizens to claim compensation in federal courts from any company — American or foreign — that has benefited from the use of confiscated property on the island.

Since then, claimants have been filing lawsuits against hotels, cruise and travel companies, airlines and banks, among others, accused of benefiting from business with properties that were taken by the Cuban government after the revolution.

ASR, founded in 1998 as American Sugar Refining Inc., is jointly owned by the cooperative’s 46 growers and West Palm Beach-based Florida Crystals Corp, owned by the Fanjul family of Palm Beach. ASR’s goal was to begin the large-scale refining of their raw sugar.

Today, following a series of acquisitions, the company annually ships more than 4 million tons of sugar packaged under some of the world’s best-known brands to customers in 80 countries. Its revenues are more than $5 billion a year, and it has close to 4,000 employees worldwide.

English: "AS Just One Example" = More than once
so the body of evidence is not just the one incident on or about July 27,2016 it includes also and others in the Plural

From 92 page complaint:

30. As just one example, on or about July 27, 2016, ASR knowingly and intentionally purchased a shipment of cane sugar that all presently known facts suggest derived from Francisco’s confiscated assets north of Guayabal. Francisco’s arable land, as well as sugar
produced by that land, constitutes confiscated property as defined by the Helms-Burton Act. AZCUB@, an alter ego of the Cuban government, maintains a monopoly on all aspects of the sugar business in Cub@. AZCUB@ is as trafficker according to Helms-Burton because it “possesses”, “manages”, “uses” or “holds an interest in” Francisco’s sugar growing land, and it engaged in “a commercial activity using or otherwise benefitting from confiscated property” when it sold Francisco-grown sugar

21. ASR also had actual knowledge of Cuba’s confiscation of Francisco. ASR executive José F. Fanjul, Jr.’s father has owned 3,989 shares of Francisco for many years.

that does not sound like a slam dunk of any kind by ASR group, nothing like his presser that expressed outrage and the lack of due diligence on the part of team FRAZ what happened to those (forged?fraudulent?) documents he referred to?(obviously when committing illegal acts they would have legitimate paperwork right?)

makes me believe my theory about where the evidence came from is on target https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=163919916


From ASR Presser:

The Fanjul’s added, “Had the lawyers conducted the slightest diligence, as required by ethical and federal court rules, they would have known their allegation that ASR Group purchased sugar from Cuba was false. The Fanjul family, like many Cuban Americans, lost everything as a result of the Castro regime. To falsely accuse the Fanjul family or any of our affiliated companies of violating the embargo with Cuba is offensive, even more so coming from fellow Cubans.”

“We provided the lawyers with public records demonstrating that ASR Group did not make the purchase of Cuban sugar they cite a week ago, and they have not dismissed the complaint, leading us to believe that their conduct is malicious and aimed only at tarnishing the reputation of ASR Group and the Fanjul family,” concluded the statement.

A bipartisan bill introduced by Senators Bob Menéndez and Marco Rubio, the highest-ranking Cuban-American members of the Democratic and Republican parties respectively, seeks to prevent US courts from recognizing trademarks "stolen by the Cuban regime."

The law, presented in both chambers, seeks to "protect the rights and interests of businessmen who had their assets confiscated by the Cuban regime."

It is believed that it will directly affect brands such as Ron Havana Club, a brand bought by Bacardi from its owners that was confiscated by the Fidel Castro regime.

Under the No Stolen Trademarks Honored in America Act bill , promoted by legislators, the state-owned Cuba Ron and its commercial partner, the French Pernod Ricard, would be prohibited from using the rights related to Havana Club, since the Cuban government had confiscated it. illegally.

According to the offices of both senators, the law wants to prevent the United States courts “from recognizing, enforcing or otherwise validating any assertion of rights by a person on a trademark that has been used in relation to a business. or assets confiscated by the Cuban regime ”.

9. AZCUB@, a nonparty to this case, is an alter ego of the Cub@n Government.
AZCUB@ is a state-run monopoly that “possesses”, “manages”, “uses” or “holds an interest in”
all of Cub@’s sugar growing land, including land confiscated from Francisco.

10. Empresa Terminales Mambisas de la Habana (“Mambisas”), a nonparty to this
case, is an alter ego of the Cub@n Government. Mambisas presently “possesses”, “manages”,
“uses” or “holds an interest in” all of Cub@’s ports, including the Port of Guayabal.

11. Corporación Azucarera del Perú, S.A. (“Coazucar”), a nonparty to this case, is a
Peruvian sugar company. Coazucar served as consignee for a shipment of Francisco-grown sugar
exported from the Port of Guayabal to ASR’s refinery in London, United Kingdom.

in the 92 page complaint they point out that 'non parties' are 'traffickers' too
so have they not been named in the suit?
