TOKYO (Reuters) - Asia Development Capital will appeal to Japan's Supreme Court in its bid to stop Tokyo Kikai Seisakusho Ltd from issuing a poison pill strategy to discourage a hostile takeover, a lawyer for the fund told Reuters on Tuesday.

The plan to appeal to the highest court follows its request for an injunction defeated by two lower courts.
