Not in the slightest, but I can't figure out why they want to sue E&Y when it was Lehman's fault for taking such risks
Because they were the accountants?

What has that to do with it? Lehmans took the risk, not E&Y, what goes on inside Lehman's has nothing to do with E&Y unless they can prove that Lehman was doing something illegal
Are you at all familiar with how finance works? Accountants sign off on and verify the value and and validity of the assets of a portfolio. If you don't understand how accounting works and how they are are liable for some of the guilt in the transactions, then you really can't comment. Maybe you just need to do some research on the subject matter.

Next year, file a large amount of fraudulent tax claims and try to get your accountant to sign off on them. My guess is that if he's honest, he'll tell you to get lost. The correlation is not at all vague.
