Barrack Rodos' $277 Mil. Win Overturned by District Court

In January, Philadelphia-based national class action firm Barrack Rodos & Bacine helped a class of investors win a $277 million verdict awarded by a jury that said Phoenix-based for-profit corporation Apollo Group Inc. had misled investors. Now, a little over six months later, a Phoenix federal district court has thrown out the verdict, which was believed to have been the largest in a securities class action case since the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act was passed in 1995.

And if his saga is any example, the law may not be working as Congress intended.

Huh? I'm the Lead Plaintiff?

Plaintiffs' lawyers in a securities suit against Digital Lightwave Inc., accused of cooking the books to lure unwary investors, may have got more than they bargained for when they made San Francisco investor and lawyer Charles Chalmers a lead plaintiff. Chalmers, invoking a federal statute designed to give principal plaintiffs in such cases more control, claims a settlement in the case was inadequate and that, moreover, he was never properly informed of his status as a "class representative."
