WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The International Monetary's Executive Board is expected to meet shortly to consider the negligence verdict issued against Managing Director Christine Lagarde by a French court, IMF spokesman Gerry Rice said on Monday.

"The Executive Board has met on previous occasions to consider developments related to the legal proceedings in France," Rice said in a brief statement. "It is expected that the Board will meet again shortly to consider the most recent developments."
