The January 22 In re Trulia, Inc. Stockholder Litigation calls for a paradigm shift in the way these shareholder suits are litigated.

Death To The Deal Tax Or Time To Move The Party? Analyzing The Value Of Forum Shopping Disclosure-Only Merger Litigation Settlements In The Wake Of In re Aruba Networks
Law.com
A series of recent rulings from the Delaware Chancery Court have sharply criticized, and may have ultimately curtailed, the common but controversial practice of disclosure-only settlements in the context of public company merger litigation. Despite these recent rulings, shareholder plaintiffs’ counsel are likely to continue to sue on deal announcements, so Delaware’s discontent with disclosure-only settlements begs the question of whether plaintiffs will avail themselves of other jurisdictions.

Halliburton Co. v. Erica P. John Fund, Inc.: The Court Retains Basic, But Permits Defendants To Rebut Price Impact At Class Certification
On June 23, 2014, the Supreme Court issued its long anticipated decision in Halliburton Co. v. Erica P. John Fund, Inc., No. 13-317, 2014 WL 2807181 (June 23, 2014). The Court declined to overturn its prior decision in Basic Inc. v. Levinson, 485 U.S. 224 (1988), which established the “fraud-on-the-market” theory of reliance in Section 10(b) class actions, but, it also confirmed the availability of a previously little used basis for defendants to defeat the presumption of reliance at the class…
On June 23, 2014, the Supreme Court issued its long anticipated decision in Halliburton Co. v. Erica P. John Fund, Inc., No. 13-317, 2014 WL 2807181 (June 23, 2014). The Court declined to overturn its prior decision in Basic Inc. v. Levinson, 485 U.S. 224 (1988), which established the “fraud-on-the-market” theory of reliance in Section 10(b) class actions, but, it also confirmed the availability of a previously little used basis for defendants to defeat the presumption of reliance at the class certification stage. Thus the opinion may as a practical matter cause a change in the way in which a number of securities class actions are litigated. This article discusses the opinion with a focus on how defendants can successfully rebut the fraud-on-the-market presumption.

Halliburton Decided: The Supreme Court Continues An Evolutionary, Not Revolutionary, Trend Limiting Potentially Frivolous Securities Class Action Lawsuits
Law.com
The Supreme Court recently declined to eliminate the judicially-created “fraud-on-the-market” presumption of reliance applicable to certain securities fraud class action suits. The Court did, however, make it incrementally easier for business defendants to end such suits at the earliest stages of litigation if they can demonstrate that the purportedly false or misleading statements did not affect the stock price at issue, and therefore could not have caused the damages alleged by plaintiffs

What Rakoff Reversal Means For ‘Neither Admit Nor Deny’
Law360
In overruling Judge Rakoff's rejection of the SEC's settlement with Citigroup Inc., the Second Circuit has effectively restored the pre-November 2011 status quo with respect to judicial scrutiny of “neither admit nor deny” settlements. The ruling should provide a better sense of certainty to parties negotiating with the SEC that settlements will not be subject to undue judicial scrutiny.
