Su obligación de informar sobre la existencia de una contingencia judicial por US$ 1.000 MM, anuló cualquier opción de continuar produciendo ingresos.La demanda de Curazao, paralela a la de Nueva York y basada en el texto de esta última (según lo expresa inequívocamente la documentación emitida por CHAVEZ que poseemos y el texto mismo de la demanda) fabricó maliciosamente una contingencia judicial en cabeza del querellante y su esposa, por un monto tan exagerado, que constituyó una barrera insalvable para el normal desarrollo de sus actividades laborales y profesionales.

I am basing this on your text and algo the definition of contingencia given by Alcaraz-Varo: contingecy, accident risk. Cf siniestro, accidente, baja, muerto.

"Litigation exposure" in this context is too broad. One can have litigation exposure whether one has been sued or not.
What we have here is a lawsuit actually filed, allegedly for an exorbitant amount, which the plaintiff had to report, presumably pursuant to a credit agreement to which it was a party. Once the lawsuit was filed, whatever litigation exposure the plaintiff may have had, which he presumably would have considered minimal, became a judicial contingency in a large amount.
