Keating Sues Government: Beleaguered Arizona businessman Charles H. Keating Jr. and top executives of his bankrupt American Continental Corp. sued the federal government for $300 million, claiming that regulators wrongly took the company’s property--its Lincoln Savings & Loan subsidiary--and destroyed it.
