The jury cleared Goldman of claims of negligence,
intentional misrepresentation and breach of fiduciary duty, and others, in the
civil case, according to the verdict announced in U.S. District Court in Boston .
Dragon founders Jim and Janet Baker, pioneers in the field
of speech recognition software, accused Goldman investment bankers of being
negligent in the 2000 sale of their company to Belgium-based Lernout &
Hauspie, which collapsed in a massive accounting fraud. The Bakers and two
early Dragon employees sought several hundred million dollars in damages.
