cases, the Trade & Commerce Bank and members of the Peirano family were also found responsible.185 108. According to the evidence provided, the Court finds that, in the actions against the Banco de Montevideo, the courts of the ordinary jurisdiction examined the consent, the alleged defects in it and/or the said Bank’s obligation to provide adequate information, in almost all of the cases in which the petitioners raised these points.186 109. In some cases, the defect examined consisted in the failure to comply with the obligation to provide adequate information when the consent was given. In other cases, the courts analyzed the Banco de Montevideo’s compliance with its obligation to provide adequate information while the contract was being carried out, as well as under the corresponding consumer protection norms and the commercial code.187 184 According to the State, the cases of the following alleged victims are “final” or “closed”: (1) Nelson Bocchi Paladino and Juan José Paladino; (2) Marión Glaser; (3) Paulina Adrien Clavijo; (4) Jorge Marenales Escrich; (5) María Delia García Milia and Jean Leroy; (6) Marcela da Pena; (7) José Ángel Pastorino; (8) Jorgelina Rial Merola, and (9) Vivián Barretto. Cf. List of “Judgments in which Banco de Montevideo S.A. (in liquidation) has been sentenced and convicted by a judgment that has been executed to pay those who acquired shares in certificates of deposit issued by TCB Cayman Islands or securities of other of the Group’s companies” (file of attachments to the State’s final written arguments, volume II, attachment 5, folios 31452 to 31453), and file of actions filed against the Banco de Montevideo for investors in TCB that are closed (file of attachments to the State’s final written arguments, volume II, attachment 5, folio 31454). 185 Cf. inter alia, Proceedings entitled “Bocchi Paladino, Nelson et al. v.

Cf. Proceedings entitled “Lijtenstein Jasinski, Fabiana et al. v. Banco de Montevideo S.A. in liquidation et al. Recovery of pesos and Damages.” File No. 2-26975/2006.

The Court also notes that a defect of consent was alleged in the case of Nelson Espasandín Álvarez, which was not examined because the only defendants were the Central Bank of Uruguay and the Bank Assets Recovery Fund of the Banco de Montevideo, neither of which could be considered responsible for the loss of the funds. Regarding the Central Bank, owing to a “causal relationship between the action of the Administration and the harm suffered,” and regarding the Bank Assets Recovery Fund owing to “lack of legal standing to be sued” because it did not have legal status.
