ST. LOUIS — Attorneys for Anheuser-Busch are going to court to fight a shareholder lawsuit involving a proposed takeover by brewer InBev.
The lawsuit was filed by the New Jersey Carpenters Annuity and Pension Funds. It claims Anheuser-Busch’s board has hurt shareholders by rejecting InBev’s unsolicited $46 billion purchase offer. Anheuser- Busch attorneys argued in court Wednesday that the case should be decided in Delaware, where the company is incorporated.
