NUEVA YORK (Reuters) - Los abogados de los propietarios de autom\u00f3viles que demandan a General Motors Co (GM.N<\/a>) sobre interruptores de encendido defectuosos y otros defectos, acus\u00f3 el jueves al fabricante de autom\u00f3viles de entrometerse en las conversaciones para llegar a un acuerdo y de haber proferido amenazas que condujeron a la cancelaci\u00f3n de un acuerdo.<\/p>\n

En virtud de un acuerdo con un fideicomiso que mantiene muchos pasivos de GM desde antes de su quiebra en 2009, el fabricante de autom\u00f3viles se habr\u00eda visto obligado a pagar $1 mil millones en acciones para resolver millones de reclamaciones.<\/p>\n

Las demandas se derivan de la retirada de 2,6 millones de veh\u00edculos de GM en 2014 con interruptores de encendido defectuosos, incluido uno relacionado con 124 muertes. Desde entonces se han ampliado para incluir millones de reclamaciones por p\u00e9rdidas econ\u00f3micas y cientos de demandas por lesiones personales y homicidio culposo.<\/p>\n

El acuerdo, revelado por primera vez en una vista judicial celebrada la semana pasada, llevaba cinco meses gest\u00e1ndose y se confirm\u00f3, seg\u00fan declar\u00f3 el jueves un abogado demandante, Edward Weisfelner, ante un tribunal de quiebras de Nueva York.<\/p>\n

Los representantes del fideicomiso a\u00fan no hab\u00edan firmado el acuerdo, pero Weisfelner dijo que segu\u00eda consider\u00e1ndolo ejecutable.<\/p>\n

Sin embargo, tras una reuni\u00f3n con GM el martes, el fondo cambi\u00f3 repentinamente de rumbo y en una presentaci\u00f3n judicial el mi\u00e9rcoles dijo que hab\u00eda aceptado la oferta de GM de ayudar a pagar el fondo para defenderse de las demandas de los propietarios de autom\u00f3viles a cambio de abandonar el acuerdo.<\/p>\n

\"Sostenemos, pero no tenemos motivos para saberlo con certeza, que el cambio de actitud del fideicomiso fue objeto de amenazas muy directas y graves por parte de GM o de sus profesionales\", declar\u00f3 Weisfelner.<\/p>\n

Los abogados de GM y del consorcio, que tambi\u00e9n estuvieron presentes en el tribunal, rechazaron las acusaciones.<\/p>\n

\"Yo estuve en esa reuni\u00f3n. La idea de que hubo amenazas o algo il\u00edcito... simplemente no existi\u00f3\", dijo Keith Martorana, abogado de la fundaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

El abogado de GM, Arthur Steinberg, dijo que no consideraba vinculante el acuerdo previo entre el fideicomiso y los demandantes porque no se hab\u00eda firmado.<\/p>\n

El juez de quiebras Martin Glenn dijo que ten\u00eda que tomarse en serio las alegaciones sobre amenazas y orden\u00f3 a ambas partes que acordaran un proceso de descubrimiento para desenterrar los detalles de las conversaciones que llevaron a los acuerdos.<\/p>\n

Tambi\u00e9n dijo que no aprobar\u00eda ninguno de los acuerdos antes de que las partes le informaran de c\u00f3mo iban a obtener las pruebas.<\/p>\n

\"M\u00e1s vale que cualquiera que negocie un acuerdo con usted tenga cuidado, ya que podr\u00eda tirar de la manta despu\u00e9s de meses de negociaciones\", dijo el juez a Martorana.<\/p>\n

GM afirm\u00f3 en un comunicado que era optimista respecto a su acuerdo.<\/p>\n

\"El juez ha esbozado un proceso para empezar a resolver las cuestiones planteadas. Seguiremos el proceso y esperamos con inter\u00e9s la eventual aprobaci\u00f3n de nuestro acuerdo de conciliaci\u00f3n\", declar\u00f3.<\/p>\n

El acuerdo original habr\u00eda supuesto que el fondo aceptara 1.000 millones de euros en reclamaciones para resolver alrededor de 11,9 millones de alegaciones por p\u00e9rdidas econ\u00f3micas y entre 400 y 500 reclamaciones por da\u00f1os personales y muerte por negligencia.<\/p>\n

Alrededor de 2,4 millones de reclamaciones, relativas a veh\u00edculos vendidos despu\u00e9s de la quiebra de GM, habr\u00edan quedado pendientes en otro tribunal.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
