Market Happenings - F - Former Ford Plant Investors Hire Lawyer to find what Happened to Money - Sourced WhisperFromWallStreet.com

FORD MOTOR CO,F

Real-Time: 5.64 Up 0.29 (5.42%)  1:34pm ET

Investors in the failed bid to restart Ford Motor Corp.'s former Maumee Stamping Plant are trying to find out what happened to their money. Meanwhile, a handful of people have begun to do what hadn't been done at the plant since it closed in October, 2007: making auto parts. Toledo attorney Scott Ciolek represents some of the dozens who invested at least $16,000 to purchase shares in Maumee Authority Stamping Inc. Mr. Ciolek said yesterday that his clients may have been misled into investing in the company and that he has written the founder, Keith Obey, seeking a list of those who own the stock, which he said is now worthless. "There are so many inconsistencies with the letters I've seen and the documents I've seen. I have no idea what they bought with that money," Mr. Ciolek said. Maumee Authority Stamping was evicted from the 800,000-square-foot facility at 920 Illinois Ave. on May 27 for, among other things, allegedly failing to pay more than $300,000 in outstanding utility bills.
