The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York denied BlackRock's motion to dismiss Saba Capital's lawsuit concerning the ECAT's voting bylaws. The court concluded that Saba adequately alleged that ECAT's bylaws could deprive shareholders of their right to elect trustees, violating the Investment Company Act (ICA). Judge Margaret M. Garnett found that BlackRock’s belief that ECAT could have ongoing failed elections was implausible. She emphasized that the fund's bylaws were designed to circumvent shareholder rights. The ruling also dismissed BlackRock's claims that Saba was merely an activist investor, affirming Saba's rights as a shareholder. The decision enables Saba to proceed to trial to contest ECAT’s governance practices.
