Bank of America (NYSE:BAC) Not Being Pursued for Damages by Lehman

Other than the cost of litigating the case, Lehman Brothers announced they won't be pursuing damages from Bank of America (NYSE:BAC).

The lawsuit centered around deposits valued at about $500 million being taken from Lehman by Bank of America, which were ordered to be returned, along with $90 million in interest.

Lehman is asking for Bank of America to pay $1.3 million in lawyer fees, along with an additional $8.8 million in unrelated funds taken by the bank.

Bank of America has stated they're going to appeal the $590 million ruling of Judge James Peck.
