Carolina Bolado — Law360, Sep 15, 2025 — The wife of a former Puerto Rican bank CEO asked a Florida federal judge Friday to dismiss the bank receiver’s $7 million conspiracy claim against her, arguing that simply signing a loan note is not proof that she knowingly joined any scheme to defraud the bank.
Morella Rincon de Niembro, who is married to ex-Nodus International Bank Inc. CEO Tomas Niembro, said receiver Driven PSC only alleges that she signed a promissory note, but does not provide any evidence showing she knew about or participated in the purported conspiracy.
Driven PSC is represented by Brant Hadaway, Evan Stroman, Marta Colomar Garcia and Zhen Pan of Diaz Reus & Targ LLP.
