Date Filed: July 25, 1997 Court: U.S. District Court Location: Colorado
Shareholders alleged the company's top three officers endorsed false earnings reports showing large profits when the franchise network was, in reality, in debt. Shareholders lost millions when the stock price fell as news of the accounting manipulations broke.
Plaintiffs eventually settled shareholders' claims against all defendants for a total of $13,000,000. Plaintiffs obtained court approval to distribute the settlement fund on May 2, 2003. The fund was distributed to class members on May 27, 2003.
