Proposed Settlement

Dec 3, 2021

Motion for Class Certification

The plaintiffs have asked the court to approve the lawsuit to proceed as a class action on behalf of a group of investors. The judge will decide whether the case meets the requirements for class certification and which investors and claims may be included.

Aug 5, 2021

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.

Oct 27, 2020

Motion to Dismiss

After reviewing the complaint(s) filed by plaintiffs, defendants have filed a motion requesting that the court dismiss some or all of the plaintiffs' claims. In a motion to dismiss, defendants might challenge the validity of plaintiffs' claims or adequacy of plaintiffs' pleadings. Once a motion to dismiss is filed, the judge will make a decision on whether part or all of the case should be dismissed or the case can proceed as alleged.
