	Feud Among Pritzker Family Members May Be Nearing Settlement; Resolution Would Help Clear the Path to Take Hyatt Hotel ...
		Thomas Pritzker, Hyatt Corp.'s chairman and chief executive, said in a recent interview that the family has been weighing an initial public offering, but does not expect to make a decision within the next year.
		So it was a startling development in December 2002 when Columbia University student Liesel Pritzker sued her father, Robert Pritzker, her cousin, Thomas Pritzker, and other members of the family, alleging they had stripped her and her brother's trust funds of $1 billion each in assets.
		The case was known to only a handful of people for a year and a half because the court file was sealed at the beginning of the case and the parties were identified only by their initials.

	Breaking the Bank -- In These Times (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The Pritzkers, whose two current patriarchs—Robert and his nephew Thomas—tie for 22nd place on Forbes’ list of the richest Americans, own an empire valued at more than $15 billion, including the Hyatt hotel chain, casinos, manufacturers and real estate, and they are major contributors to both political parties.
		When regulators shuttered the bank, the publicity-shy Pritzkers, who take pride in their philanthropy (such as the prestigious international architecture award in the family name) quickly negotiated what appeared to be a generous settlement to stay out of the newspapers and the courtrooms.
		The Pritzkers also pay no interest on the $360 million, and since it is paid over many years, the real cost to the Pritzkers may be only around $250 million.

		Despite widespread speculation that the Hyatt hotel chain — owned by the influential Pritzker family of Chicago — may go public as part of the family’s plans to split up its $15 billion empire, Hyatt chief Thomas Pritzker insists there are no immediate plans to do so.
		The split would pare the Hyatt down to a smaller core business run by three cousins who have been most involved in day-to-day operations: Thomas, 52, Nicholas, 57, and Penny Pritzker, 43.
		The arrangement could also mean that many of the Pritzkers’ industrial businesses will be sold, along with the family’s 25% share of Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. and the TransUnion credit bureau.
