Watchdog moves to freeze ABC founder's assets

THE corporate regulator has moved to freeze the assets of ABC Learning founder Eddy Groves and have his passport seized - indicating he may be considered a flight risk - as investigations continue into the child-care provider's collapse.

The regulator hopes the court will order Mr Groves to remain in Australia until June 30, 2010. It has asked that he hand over his passports within two days.

The court may also ban Mr Groves and his new wife from taking assets out of Australia, including selling them, giving them away or mortgaging them.

Mr Groves would still be allowed to spend $10,000 a week on living expenses and to pay legal costs in other cases arising from the collapse of ABC Learning.

I wonder how much of that $10,000 / week is for "living expenses" ?

Interesting. Thanks, IG. A lot of people got burned with that one. Such a market darling until it wasn't, yet people just held on to it all the way down.
