The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority says that the award is the largest that has been issued to an individual investor for 2010 and the ninth largest ever. Citi Global Markets is now seeking to dismiss the award. <\/p>\n<p>The investment firm contends that the arbitration panel&#8217;s chairman did not disclose a possible conflict of interest. In its petition, Citi cites a FINRA rule obligating arbitrators to reveal such conflicts that could prevent them from issuing an impartial ruling. The financial firm claiming that because the arbitration panel head was once a plaintiff in a lawsuit that dealt with the same type of claims and subject matter, he had an undisclosed potential conflict. Hagman&#8217;s legal team have since responded with a memo arguing that the arbitrator&#8217;s lawsuit was not related to this complaint and did not involve a securities investment, the same parties, or the same facts. <\/p>\n<p>Hagman and his wife Maj had accused Citigroup of securities fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, and other allegations. They claimed financial losses on bonds and stocks and a life insurance policy. In addition to the arbitration award, which consists of $1.1 million in compensatory damages and $10 million in punitive damages that will go to a charity of Hagman&#8217;s choice,  Citigroup must also pay a 10% interest on the award. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Web Resources: <\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/dealbook.nytimes.com\/2010\/11\/23\/messing-with-j-r-take-four\/\">Messing With J.R., Take Four<\/a>, NY Times, November 23, 2010<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/2010-10-07\/actor-larry-hagman-wins-12-million-in-finra-case-with-citigroup\">Actor Larry Hagman Wins $12 Million in Finra Case With Citigroup<\/a>, Bloomberg, October 7, 2010 <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/doc\/43809754\/Citigroup-s-Petition-to-Dismiss-Award-to-Larry-Hagman\">Citigroup&#8217;s petition to dismiss award to Larry Hagman<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.investorlawyers.com\/blog\/brokerage_firms\/citigroup\/\">Citigroup<\/a>, Stockbroker Fraud Blog  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.investorlawyers.com\/blog\/citigroup-loses-116-million-se\/#more-791\" class=\"more-link\">Continue Reading \u203a<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TV star Larry Hagman, best known for playing the roles of Texas oil tycoon JR Ewing on &#8220;Dallas&#8221; and Major Anthony Nelson on &#8220;I Dream of Jeannie,&#8221; recently won an $11.6 million securities fraud arbitration award against Citigroup.
