Dear MistyWaters.
Barry Sherman’s son raised concerns about Apotex founder’s investment strategy and business competence: Sources
There are 4 trustees to BS estate. It's been widely reported on who they are.
Jack Kay is 1 of 4 executors/trustees. He is no longer going to Trustee meetings as JS gained the confidence of the other 2 executors by advising them that JK has something to do with his parent's demise in order to remove him. Apotex is controlled by the 3 (majority) trustees. JS is not a shareholder and never will be. The company is up for sale and will be sold to the highest bidder. JS will never get his 1/4 share of the estate although his husband and his kids will file motions to inherit his portion.
Yes, Apotex is a private company but because it's a Canadian company they have to let people know who's on the board. I know that Brad Krawczyk was recently named to its four-member board of directors.
Brad, js, jk, Alex glasenberg. Make no mistake, js in in control.
Brad and js coordinated to move jk out.
Respectfully, JD was fired by Jack Kay. He didn't want to fire him but had no choice given that JD was engaged in corporate espionage with a rival firm (as well as putting his Weiner in the wrong slot as in not his wife's.)

While claims against JD's co-conspirator were dropped the claims continue against Apotex. To minimize the damages against Apotex he had to cut bait and therefore followed through on Apotex lawyer's advice.
It's not widely known but Barry loved JD. Barry pursued JD for years to take over Apotex. Barry considered JD his intellectual equal. JD had nothing to do with Barry's killing. He made a few errors in judgment in being given access to Teva's, and cheating on his wife but he never would have crossed Barry.
There are other reasons why JD was terminated. Your examples are two Of a number of reasons.
Btw the lawsuit with Teva was settled some time ago.
