Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading
statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about
the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically,
Defendants failed to disclose to investors: (1) the Company was the
target of a class action suit that could result in tens of millions or
even hundreds of millions of dollars in liability; and (2) as a result,
the Company’s public statements were materially false and misleading at
all relevant times.
If you purchased shares of CBL & Associates during the Class Period you
may move the Court no later than July 16, 2019 to ask
the Court to appoint you as lead plaintiff if you meet certain legal
requirements. To be a member of the class action you need not take any
action at this time; you may retain counsel of your choice or take no
action and remain an absent member of the class action. If you wish
