LOS ANGELES, Sept. 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The InterGroup Corporation (NASDAQ: INTG) today announced that, on September 20, 2013, it received a Staff Deficiency Letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market Listing Qualifications Department indicating that the Company no longer complies with Nasdaq's audit committee listing requirements as set forth in Listing Rule 5605 due to the resignation of Josef A.
