Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	6. Commitments and Contingencies Litigation, claims and assessments From time to time, we may be involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. Set forth below is a summary of material legal proceedings to which we were a party as of December 31, 2023: Litigation regarding Luxor Capital Group, LP and certain of its managed funds and accounts ("Luxor") Please refer to Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation – Section Issuance of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in 2014 Private Placement. Executive Arbitrations Former Chief Executive Officer, Indroneel Chatterjee On May 3, 2021, Mr. Chatterjee, commenced an arbitration against the Company and each of its directors. The arbitration complaint alleges that the Company’s April 16, 2021 for cause termination of Mr. Chatterjee was in breach of Mr. Chatterjee’s Amended and Restated Employment Agreement and made extra contractual claims against the Company for not affording Mr. Chatterjee a “fair procedure” and placed him in a “false light” by disclosing Mr. Chatterjee’s termination in its public announcement of the for cause termination. In addition, the arbitration complaint also asserts a tort claim against each of the Company’s directors relating to that termination and against the Company for its April 16, 2021 public announcement of the for cause termination. Mr. Chatterjee’s arbitration complaint seeks unspecified damages for his contract claims including for loss of income, stock and bonus, and punitive damages on his tort claims. On June 10, 2021, the Company and its directors responded to the arbitration complaint and advanced counterclaims against Mr. Chatterjee. On October 20, 2021, the arbitrator granted the Company’s motion to dismiss with respect to Mr. Chatterjee’s “fair procedure” and “false light” claims, but denied the motion to dismiss the tort claim against each of the directors. Following the close of discovery on July 11, 2022, the Company moved for summary judgment seeking dismissal of Mr. Chatterjee's remaining claims against the Company and against its directors, and further seeking entry of judgment on the majority of the Company's counterclaims. On July 21, 2022, the Company and its directors filed a motion alleging that Mr. Chatterjee had engaged in fraud and seeking as sanctions for that abuse both the dismissal of all of Mr. Chatterjee's claims and the payment of the Company's legal fees resulting from that alleged abuse. Following briefing by all parties on the summary judgment and sanction motions, on October 19, 2022, the arbitrator found that Mr. Chatterjee engaged in serious and repeated misconduct, attempting to perpetrate a fraud on the arbitrator and the Company and accordingly (i) dismissed all of Mr. Chatterjee's remaining claims, both as a sanction for his misconduct and, independently, on the merits of the Respondents' motion for summary judgment; (ii) granted summary judgment on one of the Company's counterclaims requiring Mr. Chatterjee to pay the Company $400,000 (the return of half of his initial signing bonus); and, (iii) ordered that Mr. Chatterjee, as a further sanction for his misconduct, reimburse the Company for all expenses it incurred directly and solely as a result of his misconduct (which dollar amount has not yet been set). On December 29, 2022, the arbitrator entered a final order which granted an additional award of fees and costs to the Company in the amount of over $1 million, bringing the Company's total judgment against Mr. Chatterjee to approximately $1.6 million. In the arbitrator's final award, he also included the amounts he had previously awarded to the Company in his October 19, 2022 order, which were $400,000 plus interest at the U.S. Virgin Islands' 9.0% statutory rate for contractual claims (since Mr. Chatterjee's termination on April 16, 2021) and approximately $140,000 as reimbursement to the Company for all expenses the Company incurred directly and solely as a result of Mr. Chatterjee's misconduct in the arbitration. The Company has taken steps to attempt to enforce the judgment against Mr. Chatterjee and waives no rights or remedies with respect thereto. Erbey Holding Corporation et al. v. Blackrock Management Inc., et al. On April 12, 2018, an action was filed in the Superior Court of the Virgin Islands, Division of St. Croix under the caption Erbey Holding Corporation, et al. v. Blackrock Financial Management Inc., et al., case number SX-2018-CV-146. The action was initially filed by Plaintiffs Erbey Holding Corporation, John R. Erbey Family Limited Partnership, by its general partner Jupiter Capital, Inc., Salt Pond Holdings, LLC, Munus, L.P., Carisma Trust, by its trustee, Venia, LLC, and Tribue Limited Partnership (collectively, the “HoldCo Plaintiffs”). AAMC joined in the action as an additional named Plaintiff pursuant to Court order dated March 30, 2023. The action was filed against Defendants Blackrock Financial Management, Inc., Blackrock Investment Management, LLC, Blackrock Investments, LLC, Blackrock Capital Management, Inc., Blackrock, Inc, Pacific Investment Management Company LLC, PIMCO Investments, LLC and John and Jane Does 1-10. The complaint alleges that Defendants, aided by their agents and co-conspirators, engaged in an unlawful enterprise and conspiracy to harm Plaintiffs and related companies, including Ocwen Financial Corporation (“Ocwen”), by damaging their operations, business relationships and standing in the industry. The specific intent and purpose of the Defendants’ alleged illegal conduct, as detailed in the complaint, was to take profits from the forced foreclosures on struggling homeowners during the mortgage crisis and to retaliate against and financially ruin Ocwen and AAMC for pushing back against Defendants’ pro-foreclosure campaign. As set out in the complaint, the alleged wrongful and malicious conduct of Defendants, which included fraudulent disparagement and targeted short-selling, constitute common law intentional torts and violations of Section 605 of the Virgin Islands Criminally Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“CICO”). AAMC and the HoldCo Plaintiffs seek compensatory damages in amounts reflecting the substantial diminution in value of their stock and stock holdings, respectively, and/or lost profits, plus lost future market value appreciation and profits. Any direct or indirect compensatory damages awarded under CICO are subject to automatic trebling. The action also seeks punitive damages of up to nine times any compensatory amounts based on the egregious nature of the alleged intentional torts, as well as an award of attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred in prosecuting the case. Defendants filed multiple motions that sought to dismiss the case on various alleged grounds, including that Plaintiffs failed to adequately plead their respective statutory and common law tort claims and that the Court allegedly lacked personal jurisdiction over Defendants. On October 11, 2022, the trial judge appointed a Staff Master to review Defendants’ pending motions and issue a recommended decision thereon. On July 13, 2023, the Staff Master issued his recommendation that all of AAMC’s legal claims should be permitted to proceed and that the Court should exercise personal jurisdiction over four of the five named Blackrock-entity Defendants and both of the named PIMCO-entity Defendants. The Staff Master recommended that Blackrock, Inc. be dismissed for lack of personal jurisdiction. On December 4, 2023, the trial judge issued a memorandum decision and order fully adopting the Staff Master’s comprehensive recommendation and overruling Defendants’ objections to the portions adverse to them. The trial judge certified the findings of jurisdiction over Defendants for a potential interlocutory discretionary appeal. The Virgin Islands Supreme Court has not yet determined whether or not to accept Defendants’ appeal. The trial judge also entered a final order dismissing Blackrock, Inc., thus permitting an appeal by Plaintiffs as of right to the Virgin Islands Supreme Court. On February 27, 2024, the trial judge issued an order denying Defendants’ request for a stay of discovery proceedings in the Superior Court during the pendency of appellate matters before the Virgin Islands Supreme Court and directing the Staff Master to conduct a discovery conference on an expedited basis. The Staff Master has set a discovery conference for March 27, 2024. At this time, we are not able to predict the ultimate outcome of this matter, nor can we estimate the range of possible damages to be awarded to AAMC, if any. As such, we have not recorded a gain contingency for this matter at December 31, 2023 or 2022.
