BlackRock Credit Allocation Income Trust: Delaware Court Rejects Saba Nominees

Neutral legal/regulatory Written later 8.01

On January 13, 2020, the Delaware Supreme Court ruled that the trustee candidates nominated by Saba Capital Master Fund were ineligible for election at the Fund's 2019 annual shareholder meeting, so votes for them are invalid. The filing declares four other nominees, who each received a plurality of votes cast, duly elected as Class III trustees, which determines who sits on the Fund's board.

  • Ruling date: January 13, 2020, by the Supreme Court of the State of Delaware
  • Votes received for Saba's nominees are invalid
  • Elected Class III trustees: Richard E. Cavanagh, Cynthia L. Egan, Robert Fairbairn and Henry Gabbay
  • Trustees serve until the later of the 2022 annual meeting or until a successor is elected and qualifies

Briefs are written by AI from the filing text and can contain mistakes — open the filing before acting on anything. Impact (1-5) and tone are the AI's reading of the filing for shareholders, not a price forecast. Not investment advice.

Briefs marked “Written later” were written in November 2026 for filings that were by then more than three weeks old, so months before mid-October 2026 hold a selection: every material 8-K of the past year for the 100 largest companies we cover and the last 15 important 8-Ks of every other one. Briefs the number check holds back are not shown or counted. Also: the last 45 days, briefs by company, A–Z and the live SEC filings wire.
