Special Opportunities Fund sues to enforce FDEU trustee votes in federal court

Neutral legal/regulatory Written later 8.01

Special Opportunities Fund, Bulldog Investors LLP and High Income Securities Fund filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts over the April 3, 2023 annual meeting of First Trust Dynamic Europe Equity Income Fund (FDEU). The action seeks to enforce votes for the Fund's nominees to FDEU's Board of Trustees, which the plaintiffs say the incumbent board improperly refused to count. The filing discloses the litigation but does not give a financial result for the Fund.

The press release announcing the lawsuit is dated May 11, 2023 and is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
The lawsuit seeks a declaration that the Fund's nominees received a majority of the votes that would have been cast but for the incumbent board's refusal to count them.
The lawsuit also asks the court to declare FDEU's control share bylaw, which limits voting rights beyond certain ownership thresholds, invalid under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

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.
