Legal Analysis: Caso Avícola Villalobos Guatemala

This legal report provides an in-depth analysis of the litigation in Guatemala between Lisa, S.A. —a 33% shareholder of Grupo Avícola Villalobos— and the group’s companies controlled by Corporación Multi Inversiones. Over two decades, these companies have filed more than 100 lawsuits seeking to exclude Lisa as a shareholder, extinguish its dividend rights, and undermine its corporate position. The report organizes the cases into four key categories: damages claims, dividend prescription, abuse of rights, and shareholder exclusion.

The findings show that Lisa has overwhelmingly prevailed in all judicial fronts. Guatemala’s courts —including the Supreme Court and Constitutional Court— have repeatedly upheld Lisa’s defenses, setting binding precedents that safeguard minority shareholder rights. This document consolidates procedural developments, successful legal strategies, and court rulings that reinforce due process and Lisa’s ownership rights.
