Preliminary Approval of Settlement

The court has granted preliminary approval of a proposed settlement. This means the settlement can move forward for further consideration, but it has not yet received final approval.

Motion to Dismiss Denied in Part

The court has determined that plaintiffs have adequately alleged some of their claims, but have failed to adequately allege other claims. The judge has therefore denied in part the motion to dismiss filed by defendants and written an order stating which claims are dismissed and which remain. The case will proceed and parties will litigate the remaining claims.
