Kahn's daughter Amanda also filed two separate suits against the company.

To some it appeared that managers were pulling their own hostile takeover--hostile to outside shareholders. In the end, Weyco managers announced that they were withdrawing their offer to buy the company, following indications that they were compromising shareholder support, and considering the effects of a long litigation process.
