It may be settled to resolve it, but if it were taken to trial, I doubt Yonemura would be resolved in favor of the plaintiff. The Business Judgment rule and a whole slew of other reasons would make that case very unlikely to be resolved in the plaintiff's favor, and without the other case, which alleged all sorts of conflicts of interest and collusion, which appears to not have been proven, I think Yonemura would have failed, right out of the gate.

They are not entirely disconnected, because one case provides the justification for the other being made, in truth, if not by admission. Fundamentally, the allegations of the other case, of bad actions, conflicts of interest, etc., are also the justification for the same allegations in Yonemura. But it will resolve differently because they do not technically base their claims upon one another and the Yonemura complaint, in my opinion, is more carefully and tightly drafted. That they are resolving it, if it's a reasonable resolution, is a good thing.
