3M CANADA: Recalls Screen & Keyboard Cleaner Due to Contamination
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Starting date:            June 11, 2014
Posting date:             June 11, 2014
Type of communication:    Consumer Product Recall
Subcategory:              Chemicals
Source of recall:         Health Canada
Issue:                    Contamination
Audience:                 General Public
Identification number:    RA-39945

Affected products: 3MTM Screen and Keyboard Cleaner CL680

The voluntary recall involves 3MTM Screen and Keyboard Cleaner
CL680; identified by UPC number 00021200529580.  The cleaner is
sold as part of a kit intended for external use on computer
keyboards and screens.  The kit contains cleaning fluid in a 35 mL
pump spray container, six cleaning wipes, and an applicator.

Through testing of product samples, 3M recently discovered
possible bacterial contamination of 3MTM Screen and Keyboard
Cleaner CL680.

Neither 3M nor Health Canada has received any reports of consumer
incidents or injuries related to the use of the cleaner and the
potential risk for healthy individuals is considered very low.
However, there are susceptible populations such as people with
compromised immune systems or individuals with structural lung
issues where contact with the bacteria may cause infection.  The
bacteria discovered, Burkholderia cepacia, is widespread and
commonly found in environments such as soil, vegetables and roots
from different plants, and surfaces.

Approximately 25,170 units of the recalled product were
distributed by 3M Canada Company to distributors and retailers
across Canada.

The recalled product was manufactured in Taiwan and sold from 2003
through May 2014.

Companies:

   Distributor     3M Canada Company
                   London
                   Ontario
                   Canada

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled cleaner and
contact 3M Canada by telephone at 1-800-364-3577 for return and
reimbursement instructions.   Consumers who do not wish to return
the product should dispose of it according to Municipal Hazardous
Waste Guidelines due to the chemical nature of the product.

information was identified during the Canadian Food Inspection
Agency's (CFIA) food safety investigation.

BioEssential Botanicals is voluntarily recalling sprouted chia
powder sold in bulk due to possible Salmonella contamination.  The
bulk product has been used to manufacture various products under
several brand names.  Consumers should not consume the recalled

The recall has been issued as part of a foodborne illness outbreak
investigation.  There have been reported illnesses associated with
the consumption of some of these products.

The recall was triggered by findings by the CFIA during its
investigation into a food borne illness outbreak.  The CFIA is
conducting a food safety investigation, which may lead to the
recall of other products.  If other high-risk products are
recalled the CFIA will notify the public through updated Food
Recall Warnings.

The CFIA is verifying that industry is removing recalled products
from the marketplace.

AMERICAN SUPERCONDUCTOR: $10MM Securities Suit Accord Approved
--------------------------------------------------------------
The United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts
approved the terms of a $10.0 million settlement reached in
Lenartz v. American Superconductor Corporation, et al., Docket No.
1:11-cv-10582-WGY, according to the company's June 5, 2014, Form
10-K filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014.

Between April 6, 2011 and May 12, 2011, seven putative securities
class action complaints were filed against the Company and two of
its officers in the United States District Court for the District
of Massachusetts (the "Court"); one complaint additionally
asserted claims against the underwriters who participated in its
November 12, 2010 securities offering. On June 7, 2011, Court
consolidated these actions under the caption Lenartz v. American
Superconductor Corporation, et al., Docket No. 1:11-cv-10582-WGY.
On August 31, 2011, Lead Plaintiff, the Plumbers and Pipefitters
National Pension Fund, filed a consolidated amended complaint
against the Company, its officers and directors, and the
underwriters who participated in its November 12, 2010 securities
offering, asserting claims under sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and Rule 10b-
5 promulgated under the Exchange Act, as well as under sections
11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act").

The complaint alleged that during the relevant class period, the
Company and its officers omitted to state material facts and made
materially false and misleading statements relating to, among
other things, its projected and recognized revenues and earnings,
as well as its relationship with Sinovel Wind Group Co., Ltd.
("Sinovel") that artificially inflated the value of the Company's
stock price. The complaint further alleged that the Company's
November 12, 2010 securities offering contained untrue statements
of material facts and omitted to state material facts required to
be stated therein. The plaintiffs seek unspecified damages,
rescindment of the Company's November 12, 2010 securities
offering, and an award of costs and expenses, including attorney's
fees. All defendants moved to dismiss the consolidated amended
complaint. On December 16, 2011, the Court issued a summary order
declining to dismiss the Securities Act claims against the Company
and its officers, and taking under advisement the motion to
dismiss the Exchange Act claims against the Company and its
officers and the motion to dismiss the Securities Act claims made
against the underwriters.  On July 26, 2012, the Court dismissed
the Exchange Act claims against the Company and its officers and
denied the motion to dismiss the Securities Act claims made
against the underwriters.

On November 19, 2013, the Company entered into a Stipulation and
Agreement of Settlement (the "Stipulation"), which resolved the
claims asserted against them, certain of its current and former
officers and directors, and the underwriters.  The terms of the
Stipulation provide, among other things, a settlement payment by
the Company of $10.0 million, $8.2 million of which will be funded
by its insurers and $1.8 million of which is expected to be paid
through the issuance of 944,882 shares of its common stock (the
"Settlement Shares").  The terms of the Stipulation were subject
to approval by the Court following notice to all class members.
By order entered May 5, 2014, the Court approved the terms of the
Stipulation and issued a final judgment dismissing this class
action litigation.  The effective date of the settlement is
expected to be June 5, 2014.  In the event that the value of the
Settlement Shares (as calculated under the Stipulation) decreases
as of the effective date of the settlement, the Company will be
required to make a cash payment for the difference in value.  As
of March 31, 2013, the Company had established a reserve for the
anticipated cost to settle this class action litigation.  The
issuance of the Settlement Shares is expected to be exempt from
registration pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act of
1933.  Based on the Company's assessment of the probable losses on
this claim, the Company has recorded a loss contingency of $1.8
million as of March 31, 2014.


BANK OF NOVA SCOTIA: Court Certifies Privacy Class Action
---------------------------------------------------------
Yamri Taddese, writing for Law Times, reports that more than 600
clients of the Bank of Nova Scotia will pursue a class action
against it after a Superior Court judge gave the green light to a
lawsuit under the new privacy tort of intrusion upon seclusion.

On June 6, Justice Robert Smith certified the class action brought
under the new tort established in 2012 in Jones v. Tsige, a case
in which a bank employee had repeatedly peered into her
colleague's bank account.

In Evans v. The Bank of Nova Scotia, Justice Smith found he
couldn't rule out the possibility the bank is vicariously liable
for breach of privacy after one of its employees, Richard Wilson,
admitted to stealing clients' personal information for fraudulent
purposes.

"In this case, the bank created the opportunity for Wilson to
abuse his power by allowing him to have unsupervised access to
customers' private information without installing any monitoring
system," wrote Justice Smith.

He added that Mr. Wilson "was given complete power in relation to
the victims' (customers) confidential information, because of his
unsupervised access to their confidential information."

Justice Smith certified the class action despite the bank's
protest that it had already compensated clients for pecuniary
losses they suffered as a result of the breach.  "The bank's
admission of responsibility to pay for the pecuniary damages
suffered is a different situation from the absence of a claim for
compensatory damages," he wrote.

The ruling is good news for privacy lawyers, says Rochon Genova
LLP associate Suzanne Chiodo -- schiodo@rochongenova.com
Justice Smith's finding "combines the law that was laid down in
Jones v. Tsige with the low bar for certification" in class
actions, she says.

"It's a very generous interpretation of privacy law in Canada, so
I think it's good news for privacy lawyers," she says.

The fact that there were damages in this case made it easier for
the plaintiffs to get their class action certified by claiming
negligence, she adds.  "I don't know if negligence just on the
simple breach of privacy would always be certified; in fact, I
would say it probably wouldn't be certified," she says.

"For a cause of action in negligence, you have to show some
damages, so a breach of privacy without actual proof of harm is
going to be difficult."

Class action lawyer Daniel Bach -- daniel.bach@siskinds.com -- of
Siskinds LLP says Justice Smith's decision affirms the low bar for
certifying class actions despite the defendant's argument in Evans
that a class proceeding isn't the right forum to address the
dispute.

"The bottom line is that class proceedings law was created
specifically for the purpose of allowing lots of people with
similar claims to come together and litigate, and that's exactly
what this case is about," he says.

"There are a lot of arguments advanced by the bank here, but I
don't think the fact that this case is certified should surprise
anybody."

The bank had attempted to preclude the class action by arguing the
class includes 35 individuals from British Columbia and New
Brunswick, provinces that haven't recognized the tort of intrusion
upon seclusion.

"The tort of intrusion upon seclusion has only recently been
recognized by the Ontario Court of Appeal and is settled in
Ontario.  However, until the matter is ultimately decided at the
Supreme Court of Canada, I find that the law in Canada is not
settled on this issue," wrote Justice Smith.

"While the courts in British Columbia and New Brunswick have not
as of yet recognized the tort of intrusion upon seclusion, I was
not given case law to suggest that they have definitively shut the
door on this cause of action."

While Justice Smith's decision relied on a liberal analysis of
privacy laws, Ms. Chiodo cautions against expecting the same
results in other privacy breach cases as the facts in Evans were
particularly favorable for the plaintiffs. She also says the
certification doesn't mean the court weighed the allegations on
their merit.

"There was no finding of vicarious liability but a finding that
there could be vicarious liability," she says.

The ruling, she adds, "doesn't really make substantial decisions
in privacy law because it kind of kicks the can . . . further down
the road and says, 'This is a certification hearing. It's not on
the merits.'"

Still, Ms. Chiodo notes the decision is a slight expansion of the
tort of intrusion upon seclusion established in Tsige.

In Tsige, the Ontario Court of Appeal capped the damages a judge
can award under the tort of intrusion upon seclusion at $20,000.
In that case, the plaintiff recovered $10,000. The lawyer for the
plaintiff later sued her for not paying her legal tab.

Mr. Bach says it doesn't follow that damages awarded in a class
action under the new tort must be under $20,000.  If the action in
Evans succeeds, each class member may well collect the same amount
of damages as the plaintiff in Tsige, he says.

The incentives for pursuing a claim under this tort are low given
the cap on damages, according to Ms. Chiodo, but those who launch
class actions are often looking for access to justice as well as
"behavior modification" by the defendants.


BEST BUY: Settles TCPA Class Action for $4.55 Million
-----------------------------------------------------
Kyla Asbury, writing for Legal Newsline, reports that a $4.55
million settlement has been reached and finalized in a class
action lawsuit against Best Buy after consumers claimed it
violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act by making
unsolicited telephone calls.

The settlement requires Best Buy to pay $4.55 million into a
settlement fund out of which claimants will receive their pro rata
share, according to the order filed June 9 in the U.S. District
Court for the Western District of Washington.

After deducting the requested court-awarded fees, litigation
expenses, settlement administration costs and the class
representative incentive award, the net proceeds to the settlement
class are estimated to be $3.2 million.

The Washington class consists of 439,000 class members and the
national class consists of 42,000 class members, according to the
settlement document.  It is estimated that class members will
receive between $50 and $100 per call.

"The plaintiffs reached this estimate by first subtracting the
estimated settlement costs from the gross settlement fund to
determine the estimated 'net settlement fund,'" the order states.

Michael Chesbro is to receive a $5,000 service award for services
he has rendered to the classes by stepping forward to bring this
case, according to the document.

Class counsel is seeking 25 percent of the fund, inclusive of
costs they advanced in furtherance of the case, which is
approximately $1.14 million.

The lawsuit was first filed in April 2010, when Mr. Chesbro
claimed Best Buy automatically signed customers up for its Rewards
Zone program without their knowledge when they purchased
electronics under a payment plan.  Best Buy then called them with
information about that program.

The lawsuit was removed to federal court in May 2010.

The plaintiffs are represented by Kim Williams of Williamson &
Williams; and Beth E. Terrell -- bterrell@tmdwlaw.com -- of
Terrell Marshall Daudt & Willie.

Best Buy is represented by K. Michael Fandel --

adecker@grahamdunn.com -- of Graham & Dunn; and Anne M. Lockner

Denise Rahne -- dsrahne@rkmc.com -- and David Leichtman --

The case was assigned to District Judge Richard A. Jones.

BLOOMINGDALE'S INC: Court Ruling in "Johnmohammadi" Suit Upheld
---------------------------------------------------------------
FATEMEH JOHNMOHAMMADI, individually and on behalf of other persons
similarly situated, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. BLOOMINGDALE'S, INC.,
Defendant-Appellee, NO. 12-55578 is a class action brought by
Fatemeh Johnmohammadi to recover unpaid overtime wages from
Bloomingdale's, Inc., her former employer. All of Johnmohammadi's
claims arise under state law and are asserted on behalf of
similarly situated current and former California employees.
Johnmohammadi initially filed the action in state court, but
Bloomingdale's removed the action to federal court under the Class
Action Fairness Act of 2005.

Once in federal court, Bloomingdale's moved to compel arbitration
under the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA), 9 U.S.C. Section 1 et
seq., and asked the district court to stay the action pending
completion of arbitration. The court granted the motion to compel.
It determined that shortly after being hired by Bloomingdale's,
Johnmohammadi entered into a valid, written arbitration agreement
and that all of her claims fall within the scope of that
agreement.

The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed
the district court ruling saying the district court correctly held
that the arbitration agreement is valid -- and under the FAA, it
must be enforced according to its terms.

Having freely elected to arbitrate employment-related disputes on
an individual basis, without interference from Bloomingdale's, she
cannot claim that enforcement of the agreement violates either the
Norris-LaGuardia Act or the NLRA, ruled the Ninth Circuit.

BP PLC: NY Court Dismisses "Glenn" Clas Action
----------------------------------------------
Robert R. Glenn, a resident of the state of Oregon, brought a
putative class action lawsuit against Defendant BP p.l.c.,
alleging that it wrongfully cancelled a previously declared
dividend following the Deepwater Horizon disaster. This is the
second such lawsuit brought by Mr. Glenn; the Court twice
dismissed his first lawsuit, filed in Oregon, for lack of personal
jurisdiction over BP.  Mr. Glenn has filed this lawsuit in New
York, where personal jurisdiction is not contested.

Nonetheless, District Judge Keith P. Ellison, in a memorandum and
order dated June 18, 2014, a copy of which is available at
http://is.gd/YsG1wofrom Leagle.com, held that the Court must
again dismiss Mr. Glenn's claims, this time pursuant to the
doctrine of forum non conveniens.

The Court, therefore, grants Defendant's Motion to Dismiss the
Class Action Complaint.

"To the extent that Mr. Glenn and his fellow shareholders have
rights to vindicate, they must look to English courts for relief,"
ruled Judge Ellison.  "[T]he balance of public interest factors
weighs strongly in favor of England as an available, adequate, and
more convenient forum for Mr. Glenn's claims."

"This Court may reassert jurisdiction upon timely notification
that the courts of England refuse to accept jurisdiction for
reasons other than Mr. Glenn's failure to comply with the
procedural requirements of English courts. The Court retains
jurisdiction to supervise the terms of this dismissal," added
Judge Ellison.

The case is IN RE: BP p.l.c. SECURITIES LITIGATION, Robert R.
Glenn, Plaintiff, v. BP p.l.c. Defendant, MDL NO. 10-MD-2185,
CIVIL ACTION NO. 13-CV-3660, (S.D. Tex.)

COSTCO WHOLESALE: Court Approves Settlement of "Rae" Ellis Suit
---------------------------------------------------------------
The United States District Court (San Francisco) granted final
approval to a settlement reached in the gender discrimination suit
Shirley "Rae" Ellis v. Costco Wholesale Corp., according to the
company's June 5, 2014, Form 10-Q filing with the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission for the quarter ended May 11, 2014.

A case brought as a class action on behalf of certain present and
former female managers, in which plaintiffs allege denial of
promotion based on gender in violation of Title VII of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964 and California state law. Shirley "Rae" Ellis
v. Costco Wholesale Corp., United States District Court (San
Francisco), Case No. C-04-3341-EMC. Plaintiffs seek compensatory
damages, punitive damages, injunctive relief, interest and
attorneys' fees. Class certification was granted by the district
court on January 11, 2007. On September 16, 2011, the United
States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit reversed the order
of class certification and remanded to the district court for
further proceedings. On September 25, 2012, the district court
certified a class of women in the United States denied promotion
to warehouse general manager or assistant general manager since
January 3, 2002. The class is less than 1,300 people. In February
2014 the court granted preliminary approval of a proposed
settlement. Any payments to class members under the proposed
settlement would be contingent upon proof of liability in
individual adjudications. The court granted final approval on May
27, 2014. Payments under the settlement will be immaterial to the
Company's operations and financial position.


COSTCO WHOLESALE: Invokes "Most Favored Nation" Provision
---------------------------------------------------------
Costco Wholesale Corp. filed a notice invoking a "most favored
nation" provision under the settlement of the suit In re Motor
Fuel Temperature Sales Practices Litigation, MDL Docket No 1840,
according to the company's June 5, 2014, Form 10-Q filing with the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for the quarter ended May
11, 2014.

Numerous putative class actions have been brought around the
United States against motor fuel retailers, including the Company,
alleging that they have been overcharging consumers by selling
gasoline or diesel that is warmer than 60 degrees without
adjusting the volume sold to compensate for heat-related expansion
or disclosing the effect of such expansion on the energy
equivalent received by the consumer. The Company is named in the
following actions: Raphael Sagalyn, et al., v. Chevron USA, Inc.,
et al., Case No. 07-430 (D. Md.); Phyllis Lerner, et al., v.
Costco Wholesale Corporation, et al., Case No. 07-1216 (C.D.

Corporation, et al., Case No. 07cv750 (M.D. Ala.); Jeff Jenkins,
et al. v. Amoco Oil Company, et al., Case No. 07-cv-00661 (D.
Utah); and Mark Wyatt, et al., v. B. P. America Corp., et al.,
Case No. 07-1754 (S.D. Cal.). On June 18, 2007, the Judicial Panel
on Multidistrict Litigation assigned the action, entitled In re
Motor Fuel Temperature Sales Practices Litigation, MDL Docket No
1840, to Judge Kathryn Vratil in the United States District Court
for the District of Kansas. On April 12, 2009, the Company agreed
to settle the actions in which it is named as a defendant. Under
the settlement, which was subject to final approval by the court,
the Company agreed, to the extent allowed by law and subject to
other terms and conditions in the agreement, to install over five
years from the effective date of the settlement temperature-
correcting dispensers in the States of Alabama, Arizona,
California, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Nevada, New Mexico, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Virginia.
Other than payments to class representatives, the settlement does
not provide for cash payments to class members. On September 22,
2011, the court preliminarily approved a revised settlement, which
did not materially alter the terms. On April 24, 2012, the court
granted final approval of the revised settlement. A class member
who objected has filed a notice of appeal from the order approving
the settlement. Plaintiffs have moved for an award of $10 million
in attorneys' fees, as well as an award of costs and payments to
class representatives. The Company has opposed the motion. On
March 20, 2014, the Company filed a notice invoking a "most
favored nation" provision under the settlement, under which it
seeks to adopt provisions in later settlements with certain other
defendants, an invocation that class counsel has opposed.

DIRECTORY PUBLISHING: Court Tosses Bid to Approve "Ritz" Suit Deal
------------------------------------------------------------------
District Judge Audrey G. Fleissig denied a motion for approval of
a settlement agreement in the case captioned ANGELA RITZ,
individually and on behalf of all other similarly situated
individuals, Plaintiff, v. DIRECTORY PUBLISHING SOLUTIONS and PAUL
DUFOUR, Defendants, CASE NO. 4:13CV01236 AGF, (E.D. Mo.).

Judge Fleissig held that the parties in this action for unpaid
overtime wages have not made a sufficient record upon which the
Court can determine whether the settlement, and more specifically,
the attorney's fees agreed upon, is fair and reasonable. The
parties have not submitted any billing records or any indication
of how many hours counsel expended on the case, he added. Nor have
the parties explained the basis for the apportionment of the
payments among the ten Plaintiffs.  Without that information, he
said, the Court cannot at this point approve the Settlement
Agreement.

Therefore, the parties' joint motion for approval of the Fair
Labor Standards Act collective action settlement reached in this
case is denied without prejudice to refiling such a motion upon
supplementation of the record, Judge Fleissig concluded.

DOLLAR TREE: Recalls Clingy Darts Due to Excess Phthalate
---------------------------------------------------------
Starting date:            June 9, 2014
Posting date:             June 9, 2014
Type of communication:    Consumer Product Recall
Subcategory:              Toys
Source of recall:         Health Canada
Issue:                    Chemical Hazard
Audience:                 General Public
Identification number:    RA-39897

Affected products: Clingy Darts

The recall involves Clingy Darts.  These foam darts come in
packages of 4.  They are predominantly yellow with a sticky blue
tip.  There is a red film wrapped around the center of the yellow
foam. Each dart has three orange colored fins.  The foam darts can
be identified by the UPC code 639277210197 and date code 1207,
located on the back of the packaging.

The darts contain a phthalate, di(2-ethylhexyl) (DEHP), which
exceeds the allowable limit.  Studies suggest that certain
phthalates, including DEHP, may cause reproductive and
developmental abnormalities in young children when soft vinyl
products containing phthalates are sucked or chewed for extended
periods.

Neither Health Canada nor Dollar Tree has received reports of
incidents or injuries related to the use of these Clingy Darts.

For some tips to help consumers choose safe toys and to help them
keep children safe when they play with toys, see Health Canada's
General Toy Safety tips.

Approximately 2560 of the recalled toy were sold at Dollar Tree
locations in Canada.

The recalled toys were manufactured in China and sold from Oct.
2012 to April 2014 at Dollar Tree Canada and Dollar Giant
retailers across Canada.

Companies:

   Distributor     DTSC Imports
                   Burnaby
                   British Columbia
                   Canada

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled toys and
return them to a Dollar Tree location for a full refund or credit.

GEICO: Fourth Circuit Dismisses Appeal in Overtime Class Action
---------------------------------------------------------------
Kyla Asbury, writing for Legal Newsline, reports that the U.S.
Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit has issued a decision in a
class action lawsuit against GEICO, stating it lacked jurisdiction
and dismissing the appeals.

Samuel Calderon, individually and on behalf of other similarly
situated individuals, and GEICO both appealed the U.S. District
Court for the District of Maryland's final judgment in the class
action lawsuit.

Circuit judges William Byrd Traxzler Jr., Robert Bruce King and
Andre M. Davis decided the case, with Traxler authoring the
opinion.

Government Employees Insurance Company and GEICO General Insurance
Company appealed a district court order granting partial summary
judgment against them on the issue of liability in an action
asserting denial of overtime pay under the Fair Labor Standards
Act, according to the June 6 opinion.

The plaintiffs' cross-appealed an order granting partial summary
judgment against them on several issues relating to the remedy to
be awarded.

"Concluding that these appeals are interlocutory and we lack
jurisdiction to consider them, we dismiss the appeals," the
decision states.

The plaintiffs in the matter are security investigators who
currently work or previously worked in GEICO's Claims Department
primarily investigating claims that are suspected of being
fraudulent.

GEICO classifies its investigators as exempt from FLSA's overtime
pay protections.

In 2010, the plaintiffs filed suit on behalf of a class seeking
recovery of overtime pay they claimed GEICO wrongfully withheld in
violation of the FLSA and New York state law.

The complaint alleged GEICO improperly classified the Investigator
position as exempt from overtime under the FLSA and the law of New
York and requested compensatory and liquidated damages

After the district court certified the class, the plaintiffs moved
for partial summary judgment, and GEICO moved for summary
judgment, on the issue of liability.  The district court granted
the plaintiffs' motion and denied GEICO's, rejecting as a matter
of law GEICO's contention that the Investigators fell within the
FLSA's "administrative function" exemption.

The parties later filed cross-motions for summary judgment on
several disputed remedy issues.

Considering these motions, the court ruled that because GEICO
acted in good faith, GEICO did not act willfully and thus the
statute of limitations for plaintiffs' claims extended only for
two years.

For similar reasons, the court also ruled that the plaintiffs were
not entitled to liquidated damages or pre-judgment interest.  The
court also determined that because the plaintiffs were paid fixed
salaries regardless of the varying number of hours they worked,
the method of overtime described in Overnight Motor Transportation
v. Missel applied to this case.

The district court then entered a "Stipulated Order Relating to
Remedy" that it described as a "final judgment" that contained a
complete formula for the computation of backpay based on the
rulings the court had made and the parties' stipulations.

The order noted that both parties reserved the right to appeal the
rulings of the district court underlying the order and that the
order would "have no effect unless a judgment of liability is
entered and sustained after all judicial review has been
exhausted."

The backpay formula that the order adopted would produce an amount
of backpay to which each plaintiff was entitled depending upon the
total pay received and the total time worked for each two-week pay
period within the applicable limitations period.

"The district court's work was not completed and the judgment thus
was not final," the decision states.  "With no final decision to
review, we have no choice but to dismiss the appeals before us."

GENERAL MOTORS: Recalls Sonic Model Due to Defective Transmission
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Starting date:            June 12, 2014
Type of communication:    Recall
Subcategory:              Car
Notification type:        Safety Mfr
System:                   Powertrain
Units affected:           3337
Source of recall:         Transport Canada
Identification number:    2014229
TC ID number:             2014229
Manufacturer recall
number:                   14234

On certain vehicles equipped with a 1.8L engine and 6 speed
automatic transmission, the transmission turbine shaft may
fracture, disabling transmission gears 3 through 6.  If this were
to occur while the transmission is in 1st or 2nd gear, the
transmission would fail to up-shift past 2nd gear, limiting
vehicle speed.  If this were to occur while the transmission is in
3rd through 6th gear, motive power would be lost and the vehicle
would coast until vehicle speed was reduced to allow the
transmission to down-shift to 2nd gear.  Limited vehicle speed or
a loss of motive power could increase the risk of a crash causing
injury and/or damage to property.

Dealers will replace the transmission turbine shaft.

Affected products: 2012 Chevrolet Sonic


GENERAL MOTORS: Plaintiffs Raise Concerns Over Compensation Fund
----------------------------------------------------------------
Amanda Bronstad, writing for The National Law Journal, reports
that lawyers who represent victims of General Motors Co.'s
ignition switch defects are raising concerns about a planned
compensation fund, pushing for punitive damages and questioning
who would be eligible.

During a June 18 congressional hearing over GM's recalls, chief
executive officer Mary Barra promised that the fund would not be
capped and that people with injuries or deaths predating its 2009
bankruptcy could be eligible.  She said GM would begin processing
claims on Aug. 1.

"If the ignition switch was part of the issue, we want them in the
program," she said.

But she deferred specifics to the fund's administrator, claims
attorney Kenneth Feinberg, who is expected to announce the details
within a few weeks.  He has been meeting with plaintiffs lawyers
to gather their views.  Some of those lawyers, speaking on
condition of anonymity, said they were pleased with some details,
such as the possibility of including cases in which the driver was
at fault, even if he or she was intoxicated.

But they're pushing for additional concessions.

"We know the direction he is leading us into, and we're not sure
we like all of it," said Jere Beasley --
jere.beasley@beasleyallen.com -- founding shareholder of Beasley,
Allen, Crow, Methvin, Portis & Miles in Montgomery, Ala.

Mr. Feinberg and GM spokesman Greg Martin declined to comment.

Mr. Feinberg is a seasoned administrator of victim funds,
including those for last year's Boston Marathon bombings, BP PLC's
Deepwater Horizon oil spill and the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.  GM
has recalled 2.6 million vehicles this year over the defect, which
could shut down engines, disabling power steering, airbags and
other functions.

Plaintiffs lawyers, many of whom remain embittered about
Mr. Feinberg's handling of BP's $20 billion fund for oil spill
victims, are pushing for punitive damages, given that GM knew of
the defect for more than a decade.  Unlike the BP fund, which
focused primarily on business losses incurred in the months after
the spill, GM's fund involves injuries and deaths directly caused
by the defect.

In court, juries could award punitive damages.

"In fact, if a jury hears what we know already -- and we don't
know everything yet -- they will punish General Motors severely
without any doubt," Mr. Beasley said.

Several plaintiffs attorneys raised concerns about how the fund
would categorize the causes of accidents.  U.S. Rep. Morgan
Griffith (R-Va.) was among several officials who asked
Ms. Barra during the hearing whether Mr. Feinberg was looking at
"other parameters" than airbag failures.  His concern stemmed, he
said, from the 13 dead whom GM has acknowledged, all of whom were
in accidents in which airbags failed.

"How many deaths are there and accidents are there that aren't on
GM's list where the proximate cause of the accident was the
stalling itself, not just an increase in the injuries because air
bags didn't deploy?" Mr. Griffith said in an interview.  "I don't
think air bags are the only issues they have to deal with."

Then there are the additional recalls -- most recently on June 16
of 3.2 million vehicles -- which GM said involved an unrelated
ignition problem.

"It's clear from the comments from Mr. Feinberg that there's
nothing set in stone yet about even what vehicles will be included
in the scope of the plan," said Lance Cooper, founding partner of
The Cooper Firm in Marietta, Ga.

Also unclear is whether a victim would be forced to give up all
legal claims by participating in the fund.  When pressed on that
question, Ms. Barra told Congress that the program was "in lieu of
going to court."

Still, regardless of the details, the fund might be the best
choice for some victims.  "I don't like to put somebody in a
lawsuit -- in a products case, which is extremely expensive to
litigate -- for a broken leg," Mr. Beasley said.  "In the
compensation fund, a broken leg would be compensated."

HALLIBURTON CO: May Rebut Class Suit's Presumptions, SC Rules
-------------------------------------------------------------
Halliburton deserves the chance to rebut certain presumptions in a
class action by investors who say the oil giant lied about
asbestos liability, the Supreme Court ruled on June 23, 2014,
reports Barbara Leonard, writing for Courthouse News Service.

Though the Erica P. John fund's case is still in the class-
certification stage, June 23's decision marks the second time that
the Supreme Court has vacated a finding by the 4th Circuit.

The investors had originally moved in September 2007 to certify
all persons who purchased common stock between June 3, 1999, and
December 7, 2001.  They claim that Halliburton had understated its
projected liability for asbestos claims, overstated revenues by
including billings that were unlikely to be collected, and
exaggerated the cost savings and efficiencies from a merger in
1998 with Dresser Industries.

The U.S. Supreme Court concluded in 2011 that the appeals court
"erred by requiring EPJ Fund to show loss causation as a condition
of obtaining class certification."

It is a prerequisite of class certification for the plaintiffs to
show that a company's untrue statements created a presumption of
reliance.  The fraud-on-the-market presumption involves
misrepresentation publicity, misrepresentation materiality, market
efficiency, and evidence that the plaintiff traded shares between
the time the misrepresentations were made and when the truth was
revealed.

Unlike the other prerequisites, however, a failure to prove
materiality will likewise kill the individual claims of all
plaintiffs, the Supreme Court found.

Halliburton had wanted to show that the lack of price impact
rebuts the presumption of material misstatements, but the 5th
Circuit last year found that showing premature at the class-
certification stage.

The Supreme Court was essentially unanimous in vacating that
decision on June 23, 2014.

Precedent from the 1988 case Basic Inc. v. Levinson is at issue,
according to the ruling.

"Even if plaintiffs need not directly prove price impact to invoke
the Basic presumption, Halliburton contends that defendants should
at least be allowed to defeat the presumption at the class
certification stage through evidence that the misrepresentation
did not in fact affect the stock price," Chief Justice John
Roberts wrote for the court.  "We agree."

The plaintiffs themselves have already presented evidence at this
stage "of the existence of price impact in connection with 'event
studies' -- regression analyses that seek to show that the market
price of the defendant's stock tends to respond to pertinent
publicly reported events," the 23-page ruling states.

"Defendants -- like plaintiffs -- may accordingly submit price
impact evidence prior to class certification," Roberts added.

The chief justice said it "makes no sense, and can readily lead to
bizarre results" to bar the defendants from relying on that same
evidence prior to class certification for the particular purpose
of rebutting the presumption altogether.

Justices Stephen Breyer and Sonia Sotomayor joined a brief
concurring opinion by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

The concurring opinion by Justice Clarence Thomas, which Justices
Antonin Scalia and Samuel Alito joined, stretches for 18 pages.

"Basic took an implied cause of action and grafted on a policy-
driven presumption of reliance based on nascent economic theory
and personal intuitions about investment behavior," Thomas wrote.
"The result was an unrecognizably broad cause of action ready made
for class certification.  Time and experience have pointed up the
error of that decision, making it all too clear that the Court's
attempt to revise securities law to fit the alleged 'new realities
of financial markets' should have been left to Congress."

INFOBLOX INC: Shareholders File Lawsuits in California Court
------------------------------------------------------------
Infoblox Inc. faces shareholder lawsuits in the United States
District Court for the Northern District of California, according
to the company's June 5, 2014, Form 10-Q filing with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission for the quarter ended April 30,
2014.

On May 30, 2014, an alleged class action entitled Paul Ansfield v.
Infoblox Inc., et al., No. 5:14-cv-2500-VC, was filed in the
United States District Court for the Northern District of
California, against the company and two of the company's officers.
The suit asserts purported claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a)
of the Exchange Act for allegedly misleading statements regarding
the company's business and financial results. The suit is
purportedly brought on behalf of purchasers of the company's
securities between September 6, 2013 and February 10, 2014, and
seeks compensatory damages, fees and costs. A similar complaint,
purportedly brought on behalf of purchasers of the company's
securities between September 5, 2013 and May 29, 2014, was filed
in the same court on June 4, 2014, in an action entitled Safedin
Beqaj v. Infoblox Inc., et al., No. 4:14-cv-2564-PJH. The
defendants have not yet responded to these complaints.


JOHNNY UTAH: Ex-Female Staffers File Sexual Harassment Suit
-----------------------------------------------------------
Rich Calder, writing for New York Post, reports that eight ex-
staffers of the West 51st St. bar filed a class-action lawsuit in
Manhattan federal court on June 17 claiming, among other things,
that bosses insist female staffers "to take off their shirts" and
kiss each other when they ride the mechanical bull.

The complaint claims Johnny Utah's female servers are "subjected
to pervasive and regular unwelcome sexual comments, propositions,
and physical contact by male customers" -- and that they risk
having hours cut or losing their jobs "if they complain."

"By intentionally using the ramped up sexualization of its female
employees . . . the owners and managers of Johnny Utah's have
knowingly engaged in the discriminatory policies and practices,"
the filing alleges.

The suit -- which seeks unspecified money damages on behalf of the
six female and two male ex-staffers -- also accuses the self-
described "home to New York City's original mechanical bull" of
cheating workers out of overtime pay and other legal wages.

The plaintiffs include ex-servers, bartenders and "Daisy Dukes
girls" who roam Rockefeller Center in short-shorts soliciting hot-
blooded men to check the joint out.

Female staffers are "expected to encourage" male clientele "to buy
them shots of alcohol during their work shifts, to sit on male
customers' laps, ride a mechanical bull with other female
employees and male customers, dance on top of the bar in front of
customers and pour shots of alcohol into customers' mouths," the
suit says.

The suit also claims that Johnny Utah's bosses urge female
staffers "to take off their shirts when they ride the mechanical
bull and kiss other female employees when they ride the bull
together."

"During beach theme parties held during the summer, the female
servers must wear bikini tops and customers watch as the female
servers splash around in plastic baby/toddler pools set up
throughout Johnny Utah's," the suit says.

The suit also names as defendants owner John Sullivan and managers
Thomas Casabona and JR Lozado, all of Manhattan.  It alleges some
of the female staffers Johnny Utah hires are under 21 years old
and that the honchos also "encouraged" these minors "to drink"
booze illegally -- and in some cases, even made sexual advances
towards them.

Mr. Sullivan, the suit says, routinely recruits female staffers
for wild parties he throws for friends.  Workers who refuse to
dance privately or complain about being groped during the parties
risk losing their jobs.

Identification number:    RA-39711

Affected products: Performance Plus, 4-gallon air compressor model
number 8488N

The recall involves the Performance Plus, 4-gallon air compressor
identified by model number 8488N.  The product is a 2.5HP, 9 Amp,
110 Volt, 1720 RPM 4-gallon air compressor with two 2-gallon (7.6-
litre) red tanks stacked one on top of the other, with a maximum
operating pressure of 120 PSI and air delivery of 4.1 standard
cubic feet of air per minute at 90 PSI.

The brand name "Performance Plus" can be found on the top tank.
The model number, 8488N, is located on the unit name plate on the
rear of the compressor on the frame.

Please note that a previous model 8488 was CSA approved and
certified through another factory and is not included in this
recall.

The air compressor model is unauthorized to bear the CSA mark for
sale in Canada and may pose a fire hazard.

Health Canada has received one report of an incident involving the
air compressor where burn damage to the shroud cover was observed.
No injuries were reported.

Approximately 5,000 units of the recalled product were sold across
Canada.

The recalled products were manufactured in China and sold from
Nov. 2010 through May 2014.

Companies:

   Distributor     King Canada Tools Inc.

LES MINI PARALLELES: Recalls Kids' Fleece Jacket with Drawstring

Issue:                    Strangulation Hazard
Audience:                 General Public
Identification number:    RA-39895

Affected products: Children's fleece jackets with drawstrings at
the neck and waist

They are sold in different sizes, colours and patterns.

The recall involves children's fleece jackets, with hoods, sold as
a two-piece set with pants (model 331).  These children's jackets
have a fleece lining and drawstrings at the neck and waist.  In
addition, there is a brand label marked "mini paralleles" at the
bottom of the jacket.

Health Canada's sampling and evaluation program has determined
that drawstrings on children's upper outerwear can become caught
on playground equipment, fences or other objects and result in
strangulation, or in the case of a vehicle, the child being
dragged.

Neither Les mini paralleles nor Health Canada has received any
reports of incidents or injuries related to the use of these
products.

Approximately 71 jackets in two-piece sets were sold in Canada at
various shows in Quebec (Plein-Art, the Salon des metiers d'art de
Quebec and the Salon des metiers d'art de Montreal).

The recalled products were manufactured in Canada and sold from
Aug. 1 to 12, 2013, at Plein-Art, the Salon des metiers d'art de
Quebec and from Dec. 4 to 20 at the Salon des metiers d'art de
Montreal.

Affected products: Sleepers for babies

The recall involves kimono-style sleepers (model number 218) sold
in 3-month size.  The sleepers come in different colors with
different patterns but all have a kimono-style front opening, with
snap fasteners and a white border.

In addition, this recall involves sleepers (model number 189) in
6-, 12-, and 18-month sizes.  These sleepers also come in
different colours with different patterns.

Health Canada's sampling and evaluation program has determined
that these products do not meet the flammability requirements for
children's sleepwear under Canadian law.

Loose-fitting children's sleepwear can contact ignition sources
such as stove elements, candles, and matches more readily than
tight-fitting sleepwear, and once ignited will burn rapidly,
potentially resulting in severe burns to large areas of the
child's body.  For this reason, cotton is not permitted in loose-
fitting sleepwear.

Neither Les mini paralleles nor Health Canada has received any
reports of incidents or injuries related to the use of these
products.

Approximately 40 sleepers were sold in Canada at various shows in
Quebec (Plein-Art, the Salon des metiers d'art de Quebec and the
Salon des metiers d'art de Montreal).

The recalled products were manufactured in Canada and sold from
Aug. 1 to 12, 2013, at Plein-Art, the Salon des metiers d'art de

LINCOLN NATIONAL: Judge Tosses Tax Shelter Class Action Claims
--------------------------------------------------------------
Ama Sarfo, writing for Law360, reports that a North Carolina
federal judge on June 16 axed class action claims in a lawsuit
alleging The Lincoln National Life Insurance Co. disguised abusive
tax shelters as welfare benefit plans, saying the claims will be
better pursued individually.

U.S. District Judge Catherine C. Eagles said the class action
claims, which allege under state law that Lincoln National made
untrue statements of material fact in selling a now-infamous plan
called the Benistar 419 Plan, are barred by the Securities
Litigation Uniform Standards Act, which prohibits class action
suits that are based on state law and allege misrepresentations in
securities sales.

"The class claims and the plaintiffs' claims for class action
relief are dismissed with prejudice to the class aspects of these
claims but without prejudice to any individual who was a potential
member of the class bringing his or her own claim against the
defendant," the order says.

David Smyth, an attorney for the plaintiffs, said his clients are
weighing their options.

"We're obviously disappointed, we thought the law suggests a
different result," Mr. Smyth said.  "We will move forward with the
individual claims, but we haven't decided what we will do with the
class claims as far as an appeal."

Named plaintiff Dennis Reittinger is president of a North Carolina
auto body shop and in 2002, he sought tax planning advice for his
business.  Lincoln National contacted Mr. Reittinger to discuss
its tax planning offerings, and encouraged him to purchase a
welfare benefit plan called the Benistar 419 Plan.

Welfare benefit plans are employer-sponsored plans that provide
various benefits to employees like life insurance or health
insurance.  Plans that have multiple contributors, like the
Benistar 419 Plan, receive preferential tax treatment -- in the
case of the Benistar 419 Plan, employers would make contributions
to a Benistar 419 Plan & Trust that Lincoln National allegedly
maintained were tax-deductible as ordinary and necessary business
expenses, according to Mr. Reittinger's amended complaint.

Lincoln National allegedly used its life insurance policies as
funding vehicles for the plans and Mr. Reittinger claims the
Benistar 419 Plans in actuality were illegal tax shelters that
exposed him and others to Internal Revenue Service audits,
penalties, and other tax liabilities.

Mr. Reittinger maintains that Lincoln National marketed the
Benistar 419 Plans against the advice of their general counsel and
assured him that the plan was legitimate, yet also issued several
disclaimers about the program.

"Lincoln National attempted to 'have it both ways' by endorsing
and encouraging plaintiffs' participation in the Benistar 419 Plan
& Trust while at the same time attempting to have plaintiffs deny
that Lincoln National ever did so by signing 'disclosure' and
'acknowledgement' documents that were included in the voluminous
paperwork plaintiffs were required to sign in connection with
their participation in the Plan but never discussed with or
explained to plaintiffs," the lawsuit says.

Mr. Reittinger says the IRS ultimately examined his taxes and
disallowed his company's tax deductions from the Benistar 419 Plan
on the grounds that the plan wasn't a bona fide welfare benefit
plan.  He sought to certify a class of individuals who, from 1998
to the present participated in welfare benefit plans funded by
Lincoln National insurance policies, made tax deductions based on
their contributions and were assessed back-taxes, penalties and
interest by the IRS.

The plaintiffs are represented by David D. Smyth --

Court for the Middle District of North Carolina.

of shareholders is due July 23, 2014, according to the company's
June 5, 2014, Form 10-Q filing with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission for the quarter ended May 3, 2014.

On April 7, 2014, Lee Voss ("Voss") filed an action asserting
putative class action claims on behalf of the Company's
shareholders and derivative claims ostensibly on behalf of the
Company in the United States District Court for the Northern

that certain officers and directors of the Company breached their
fiduciary duties by causing or allowing the Company to engage in
the purported willful infringement of certain patents asserted
against it in litigation by Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and
by failing to institute adequate internal controls, resulting in
an adverse verdict. Additionally, the complaint alleges unjust
enrichment and a breach of the duty of honest services by three of
the officers. The Company is named as a nominal defendant. Voss
requests damages and restitution in unspecified amounts, equitable
and/or injunctive relief, and the costs and fees of bringing the
action. The action is in the preliminary stages, and discovery has
not commenced. The Company's responsive pleading is due July 23,
2014.

NATIONAL COLLEGIATE: Concussion Problems Spread to Basketball
-------------------------------------------------------------
David Lee, writing for Courthouse News Service, reports that
allegations that the NCAA failed to protect college athletes from
long-term effects of concussive head injuries have expanded from
the football field to the basketball court.

James Cunningham, of Denton County, sued the NCAA in Federal Court
on June 20.  Cunningham claims he "sustained repeated concussive
trauma" while a member of the basketball teams at Arizona State
University from 1994 to 1995 and the University of Tulsa from 1996
to 1998.

Cunningham claims the NCAA was aware of "mounting literature and
medical advice" on the long-term effects of such injuries,
including two separate 2003 studies it helped fund.

One of the studies recommended the use of standardized concussion
assessment tools, he says in the complaint.

"Despite having knowledge of the foregoing research studies and
expert recommendations, the NCAA continued to allow players to
play on the days immediately following their receipt of a
concussion, failed to implement any guidelines or rules to prevent
repeated concussions or educate players about their increased
risk, and refused to endorse any of the recommended return to play
procedures," the 17-page complaint states.

"The NCAA further failed to take any action to educate its student
athletes on the risks of repeated head traumas."

Cunningham claims that after his collegiate career he suffered
from "severe headaches, seizures, confusion and cognitive
deterioration."

He sought treatment at the Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins and Baylor
University and underwent neurological testing that included CAT
scans and MRIs.

"As a direct result of the concussive head injuries he suffered
while playing NCAA college basketball, Mr. Cunningham has and
continues to incur significant medical bills and expenses," the
complaint states.  "Mr. Cunningham suffers from constant
headaches, memory loss, dizziness, severe depression, speech
impediments, panic disorder, anxiety, mobility issues,
irritability, chronic traumatic encephalopathy and panic disorder.
Mr. Cunningham did not suffer from these conditions prior to
incurring the concussions while playing NCAA basketball.  In
addition to his severe medical conditions which require constant
treatment and monitoring, Mr. Cunningham is at an increased risk
of developing latent brain injuries or additional
neurodegenerative disorders."

The NCAA did not immediately respond to a request for comment on
June 21, 2014.  It faces several other lawsuits from former
college football players who allege similar injuries. Former
players from Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt filed separate federal
class actions in November 2013.

Cunningham seeks actual and punitive damages for breach of
contract, unjust enrichment, negligence and fraudulent
concealment.

NAVISTAR INT'L: July 23 Hearing on Motions to Dismiss Stock Suit
----------------------------------------------------------------
A hearing date on the Motions to Dismiss a consolidated
shareholder lawsuit against Navistar International Corporation is
set July 23, 2014, according to the company's June 5, 2014, Form
10-Q filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for
the quarter ended April 30, 2014.

In March 2013, a putative class action complaint, alleging
securities fraud, was filed against the company by the
Construction Workers Pension Trust Fund - Lake County and
Vicinity, on behalf of itself and all other similarly situated
purchasers of the company's common stock between the period of
November 3, 2010 and August 1, 2012. A second class action
complaint was filed in April 2013 by the Norfolk County Retirement
System, individually and on behalf of all other similarly situated
purchasers of the company's common stock between the period of
June 9, 2010 and August 1, 2012. A third class action complaint
was filed in April 2013 by Jane C. Purnell FBO Purnell Family
Trust, on behalf of itself and all other similarly situated
purchasers of the company's common stock between the period of
November 3, 2010 and August 1, 2012. Each complaint named the
company as well as Daniel C. Ustian, the company's former
President and Chief Executive Officer, and Andrew J. Cederoth, the
company's former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial
Officer as defendants. These complaints (collectively, the "10b-5
Cases") contain similar factual allegations which include, among
other things, that the company violated the federal securities
laws by knowingly issuing materially false and misleading
statements concerning the company's financial condition and future
business prospects and that the company misrepresented and omitted
material facts in filings with the SEC concerning the timing and
likelihood of EPA certification of the company's EGR technology to
meet 2010 EPA emission standards. The plaintiffs in these matters
seek compensatory damages and attorneys' fees, among other relief.
In May 2013, an order was entered transferring and consolidating
all cases before one judge and in July 2013, the Court appointed a
lead plaintiff and lead plaintiff's counsel. The lead plaintiff
filed a consolidated amended complaint in October 2013.  The
consolidated amended complaint enlarged the proposed class period
to June 9, 2009 through August 1, 2012, and named fourteen
additional current and former directors and officers as
defendants. The defendants filed Motions to Dismiss on December
17, 2013. The plaintiff filed an Omnibus Opposition to Defendants'
Motions to Dismiss, and a Motion to Strike on January 31, 2014.
The defendants filed their opposition to the Motion to Strike on
February 18, 2014 and filed a reply in support of their Motions to
Dismiss on March 3, 2014. The Court has scheduled a hearing date
on the Motions to Dismiss of July 23, 2014.

PADBURY MINING: Shareholders Unveil Losses Amid Class Action
------------------------------------------------------------
ABC News reports that a group of shareholders mounting a class
action against Padbury have revealed some of losses they claim are
linked to the company's failed bid to develop a port project at
Oakajee in Western Australia.

The junior minor has attracted criticism -- and the eye of ASIC
-- following a series of announcements in April, in which it
claimed to have secured $6.5 billion to develop the long-delayed
Mid West port.  The Perth-based company later terminated the deal
and revealed it did not have all the money required to execute the
plan.  The move saw Padbury's share price plummet.  That prompted
regulators to investigate Padbury's market announcements and share
trading.

Padbury shareholder Wes Chapman said he lost a "substantial" sum
of money through the ordeal but was not willing to disclose a
figure.  He said other shareholders have come forward claiming
losses of up to $300,000.

Mr. Chapman is working with a number of shareholders to launch a
class action, alleging that Padbury's Oakajee announcements to the
ASX lacked vital details, which misled the market.

"I think the market needs to be accountable for its mistakes and
obviously that announcement should never have been released, never
put on the market," he said.

Mr. Chapman said he had been contacted by up to 80 people who are
interested in being involved.

"At the end of the day it just comes down to an announcement and
someone putting their name on that announcement, which happened to
be Padbury Mining, so they need to be accountable for it," he
said.

The group is pursuing legal action through Sydney-based ACA
Lawyers.

Padbury Mining declined to comment.

ASIC confirmed its investigation into Padbury's disclosure and
share trading was ongoing but was not able to say when an outcome
would be reached.


PAYTIME: Faces Class Action Over Massive Data Breach
----------------------------------------------------
Adam Greenberg, writing for SC Magazine, reports that a class-
action complaint has been filed by Kraemer, Manes & Associates LLC
and Carlson Lynch LTD against Paytime, a Pennsylvania-based
payroll company that experienced a massive data breach in April.

"Paytime failed to safeguard and prevent vulnerabilities from
being taken advantage of in its computer system," according to
documents filed in U.S. District Court for the Middle District of
Pennsylvania on June 13.

The complaint seeks relief for all those impacted, which could be
an estimated 216,274 individuals, according to a security breach
notification filed in North Carolina.

Paytime announced in May that hackers had taken advantage of a
vulnerability in its Client Service Center system and gained
unauthorized access to customer information, including Social
Security numbers, direct deposit bank account information, wage
information and other data.


PETROLOGISTICS LP: Sued Over Violation of Securities Exchange Act

Hallie A. Vanderhider, Flint Hills Resources, LLC, and FHR
Propylene, LLC, Case No. 4:14-cv-01723 (S.D. Tex., June 19, 2014),
arises out of the Defendants' dissemination of a false and
misleading information statement in violation of the Securities
Exchange Act and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
promulgated thereunder, the Board's breaches of their fiduciary
duties owed to the Partnership's unit holders under state law, and
the Board's breaches of the express and implied contractual
duties owed to the Public Unit holder.

independent dedicated propylene producer in the United States.

PNC BANK: Bid to Stay Discovery in "Montoya" Class Action Denied
----------------------------------------------------------------
Magistrate Judge Jonathan Goodman denied a motion to stay
discovery in the case captioned ENRIQUE MONTOYA and NEYSER
COLONIA, Plaintiffs, v. PNC BANK, N.A., et al., Defendants, CASE
NO. 14-20474-CIV-MARTINEZ/GOODMAN, (S.D. Fla.).

PNC Bank, N.A., PNC Mortgage, Assurant, Inc., and American
Security Insurance Company have moved to stay all discovery in
this putative class action lawsuit involving force-placed
insurance. In their motion, they say that Plaintiffs have
propounded extensive and burdensome discovery, which they describe
as a "potential waste of resources" pending a ruling on their
dismissal motions. Plaintiffs oppose the motion to stay discovery.

Mag. Judge Goodman denies the motion because: (1) the parties are
currently on a tight and ambitious trial and discovery calendar
and further discovery delays would be problematic; (2) the motions
to dismiss are not even ripe yet and a ruling will require
comprehensive analysis of myriad issues; (3) discovery stays, in
general, can create case management problems and are therefore not
favored; and (4) Defendants have not sufficiently shown the undue
prejudice or burdensomeness necessary to justify a discovery stay.

PREMERA: McCarthy Finance Suit Remanded for Further Proceedings
---------------------------------------------------------------
Although the Office of the Insurance Commissioner has broad
regulatory authority, the Insurance Code, ch. 48.44 RCW, and the
Consumer Protection Act (CPA), ch. 19.86 RCW, anticipate that
policyholders may litigate CPA claims against insurers and their
agents. Especially where the insurance commissioner declares he is
unable to effectively regulate surplus levels maintained by
nonprofit insurers, the filed rate, primary jurisdiction, and
exhaustion of remedies doctrines do not necessarily bar CPA claims
alleging misrepresentations by insurers or their agents that
resulted in excessive surplus levels.

The Washington Alliance for Healthcare Insurance Trust (WAHIT), a
nonprofit trust, sells insurance issued by nonprofit entities
Premera, Premera Blue Cross, and LifeWise Health Plan of
Washington1 (collectively Premera). Despite its nonprofit status,
Premera holds more than $1 billion in "surplus."  Plaintiffs
purchased Premera policies through WAHIT and seek damages,
including refunds of premiums they have paid, alleging that
Premera and WAHIT violated the CPA and the Insurance Code by
making false claims on a web site, in advertising mailings, and in
other public statements. They contend that Premera accumulated its
large surplus, in part, based upon these misrepresentations.

The trial court dismissed the lawsuit in its entirety based on the
filed rate, primary jurisdiction, and exhaustion of remedies
doctrines.

The Court of Appeals of Washington, Division One, in an opinion
dated June 23, 2014, a copy of which is available at
http://is.gd/CeOLT4from Leagle.com, concluded that several claims
were erroneously dismissed.

According to the Wash. Appeals Court, "This appeal is limited to
the specific issues briefed -- whether the filed rate, primary
jurisdiction, and exhaustion of remedies doctrines support
dismissal of the claims alleged. Those doctrines do not warrant
dismissal of CPA claims based on alleged misrepresentations of
WAHIT and false statements to the public by Premera. The selective
underwriting claim was properly dismissed. We do not reach any
other questions regarding the alleged claims."

The Wash. Appeals Court affirmed in part, reversed in part, and
remanded the case for further proceedings.

The case is McCARTHY FINANCE, INC., a Washington corporation;
McCARTHY RETAIL FINANCIAL SERVICES, LLC, a Washington limited
liability company; HEMPHILL BROTHERS, INC., a Washington
corporation and its affiliates and subsidiaries, J.A. JACK & SONS,
INC., a Washington corporation, and LANE MT. SILICA CO., a

REPUBLIC SERVICES: Protection Added to Spare Radioactive Waste
--------------------------------------------------------------
A landfill that has emitted noxious odors from an underground fire
has agreed to additional safety measures to try to keep the fire
from spreading to a neighboring landfill that contains radioactive
waste, according to Joe Harris at Courthouse News Service.

Republic Services, which owns the Bridgeton Landfill in suburban
St. Louis, reached the agreement with Missouri Attorney General
Chris Koster on June 19, 2014.  The improved measures include:

   * Monthly comprehensive carbon monoxide testing in the neck
     area separating the north and south quarries;

   * Carbon monoxide testing in the north quarry every 60 days,
     decreasing to 30-day intervals if any temperature readings
     exceed 145 degrees Fahrenheit; and

   * Carbon monoxide testing in the south quarry every 60 days.

Under a previous agreement, Republic was providing this data every
60 days.

The new agreement also implements a new odor control plan, which
includes:

   * New technology to detect and log odor nuisance events;

   * A vapor recovery system to capture odors during the transfer
     of leachate to trucks used for offsite disposal.  Eventually
     leachate will be directly piped offsite for disposal;

   * Closure and removal of tanks formerly used to treat leachate
     at the site;
   * A backup flare system to burn off odorous gases onsite, with
     a supplemental natural gas supply installed within 3 weeks
     of the order to reduce flare downtime;

   * Republic will investigate and implement additional odor-
     neutralizing measures;

   * Republic must increase the frequency of landfill gas
     collection and testing for hazardous substances; and

   * Republic will reimburse the state of Missouri for excess
     state costs up to $1.49 million associated with monitoring
     and oversight at the landfill.

The agreement comes after elevated levels of benzene were detected
along the landfill's perimeter this month.  Neighboring residents
voiced concerns about the underground fire reaching the
neighboring West Lake landfill, which contain radioactive
material.

"Protection of public health and the safety of the community
remain our highest priorities as we move ahead to control the fire
and the odor," Koster said in a statement.  "Our goal is to ensure
that Republic keeps the fire from reaching the West Lake Landfill
as we move forward on a final determination on penalties against
Republic."

Neighbors reached a $6.8 million settlement in a class action
against the landfill in April.  The neighbors claimed they
suffered losses in property value to the noxious odors emitted
from the landfill.  On June 13, the deadline to opt in to the
settlement was extended to July 18.

RONAN, MT: Faces Class Action Over Civil Rights Violations
----------------------------------------------------------
KECI reports that the town of Ronan's police department is under
fire for alleged civil rights violations, and lawyers say the
number of plaintiffs in a class action lawsuit could be more than
100.

A group of attorneys that include the CSKT Public Defenders Office
filed a civil rights lawsuit on behalf of Lake County resident and
Tribal member Anthony Chaney.  The suit claims a harmful situation
was created by the City of Ronan's Police Department, when they
hired Trevor Wadsworth.

The State of Montana requires all peace officers to be trained and
certified by the State.  The suit claims many of Ronan's full-time
officers and reserve officers did not meet those standards,
leading to mistreatment and unlawful arrests of citizens.

According to the suit, it's likely that Ronan residents, community
members who live near Ronan and even visitors passing through the
area were harmed, mistreated or arrested without cause.  The suit
claims they won't know the extent of the list of plaintiffs until
they review arrest reports.

Lawyers filing the suit are asking people who believe they were
victims to contact the legal team.

SOIL SOLUTIONS: Class Action Settlement Gets Final Court Approval
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Rick Callahan, writing for The Associated Press, reports that the
operators of a northern Indiana wood-recycling plant sued by
neighbors who alleged its dust and fumes threatened their health
and kept them indoors must clean up and shutter the site within
five years under a class-action settlement given final approval on
June 16 by a federal judge.

U.S. District Court Judge Philip Simon, who had given the
settlement involving Soil Solutions Co. his preliminary approval
in March, declared the agreement "fair, reasonable and adequate"
during the hearing in his Hammond courtroom.

The agreement requires Soil Solutions to remove all wood wastes
from the Elkhart plant, shutter the site by July 2019 and obtain a
restrictive covenant barring similar operations from using the
complex after the closure of the plant, which grinds scrap wood
into animal bedding and mulch.

Environmental attorney Kim Ferraro had sued VIM Recycling on
behalf of local residents in 2009, two years before the plant was
sold to Soil Solutions.  She said the plant's neighbors had
endured respiratory and other health woes and been forced inside
by dust and fumes since it opened 2000.

The case involving 1,800 Elkhart residents obtained class-action
status last year, two years after a federal appeals court
overruled a judge's initial dismissal of the suit.

Ms. Ferraro said she remains troubled that legal action was needed
after she said Elkhart County officials and state environmental
regulators failed to respond promptly to address the concerns of
the plant's neighbors.

"Although it's a victory -- and I know my clients are thrilled --
I think it's a shame that it took so long," she said.  "And we
have to ask ourselves, 'Is this really the way things should be?
Is this is a breakdown of government that a community can't get
relief from such obviously unhealthy conditions?'"

Ed Sullivan, an attorney who represented Fort Wayne-based Soil
Solutions in the lawsuit, said the company has disavowed the
actions of VIM Recycling, which owned the plant between 2000 and
2011.  He said under the settlement Soil Solutions admits no
wrongdoing and will only shutter its Elkhart plant.

Mr. Sullivan said the settlement will end the company's exposure
to any liability stemming from the plant's earlier operations and
sets a process for removing the site's remaining wood wastes.

"It's beneficial to both parties and the community at large," he
said.

Wayne Stutsman, a retired industrial electrician who has lived
with his wife, Barbara, near the plant for 41 years, said they're
thrilled with the settlement's approval even though the plant
won't have to close for five more years following a cleanup of the
site.

"We're just elated that this thing is finally going to be over,
but the five years can't come fast enough," he said.  "This is
what we've been after all these years."

Ms. Ferraro, who's the Hoosier Environmental Council's staff
attorney, said that under the settlement the company must file
quarterly and annual reports on the amount of wood wastes
remaining at the site.  A January site survey found about 300,000
cubic yards of wood wastes remaining, she said.

Ms. Ferraro said the settlement forbids Soil Solutions from moving
some of the smelliest of those wastes during weekends and
holidays.

Although the settlement has been approved, Ms. Ferraro will
continue to seek monetary damages against VIM Recycling, the
plant's former operator.

Judge Simon gave Ferraro 120 days to file a motion detailing the
damages she'll seek from VIM Recycling on behalf of the residents.


SOUTHWEST AIRLINES: Court Amends Final Judgment in Voucher Case
---------------------------------------------------------------
A federal court in Chicago previously approved a class-wide
settlement in In re: SOUTHWEST AIRLINES VOUCHER LITIGATION, CASE
NO. 11 C 8176, (N.D. Ill.).  After the plaintiffs moved for
attorney's fees, costs, and incentive awards, the Court granted
the motion in part, reducing plaintiffs' requested fee amount and
awarding plaintiffs' counsel fees in the amount of $1,332,206.25
and $18,522.32 in expenses. The Court thereafter entered final
judgment. Plaintiffs' attorneys then filed a motion under Federal
Rule of Civil Procedure 59(e) to alter or amend the final
judgment.

In a memorandum opinion and order dated June 20, 2014, a copy of
which is available at http://is.gd/gjwp97from Leagle.com,
District Judge Matthew F. Kennelly granted the plaintiffs' motion
and increased the fee award, but not to the extent plaintiffs
seek.

Judge Kenelly held that the Court's order of October 3, 2013
awarding plaintiffs' attorney's fees and expenses is amended to
provide that plaintiffs' counsel are awarded attorney's fees in
the amount of $1,649,118 and expenses in the amount of $18,522.32.

SOUTHWESTERN BELL: Class Action Seeks to Nullify Commission Order
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Tim Talley, writing for The Associated Press, reports that a
class-action lawsuit was filed on June 17 seeking to nullify a
1989 Corporation Commission order that set telephone rates for a
predecessor company of telecommunications giant AT&T.

The lawsuit was filed in Oklahoma County District Court by
Sody Clements, mayor of the affluent Oklahoma City suburb of
Nichols Hills, and retired Lt. Gen. Richard Burpee, former
commander of the Oklahoma City Air Logistics Center at Tinker Air
Force Base.

The lawsuit alleges Mr. Clements, Mr. Burpee and other telephone
ratepayers in the state were harmed by "the legacy of misconduct"
by AT&T's predecessor, Southwestern Bell Telephone Company.

The lawsuit asks that the Corporation Commission order -- which
lowered telephones rates but did not include refunds of what the
lawsuit alleges were "excess revenues" -- be voided.  The lawsuit
alleges that the 2-1 vote that approved the rate change was
tainted by a bribe paid to former Commissioner Bob Hopkins by a
Southwestern Bell attorney.  Mr. Hopkins was convicted in federal
court of accepting money to influence a vote and the attorney,
William Anderson, was convicted on a federal bribery charge.

A spokesman for AT&T, Marty Richter, said the issue raised in the
lawsuit "has been thoroughly reviewed and resolved numerous times
by the Oklahoma Corporation Commission and by the Oklahoma Supreme
Court.  This should be a closed issue."

The Oklahoma Supreme Court in 2010 rejected a request by
Corporation Commissioner Bob Anthony to reopen the case.  The
court ruled Mr. Anthony had failed to advance any new argument
that would produce a different result.

The lawsuit states that after the corporate federal income tax
rate was cut in July 1987, Southwestern Bell received an annual
windfall under existing rates and generated "excess revenues,"
which the Corporation Commission could order refunded to
consumers.

"Motivating its wrongdoing, (Southwestern Bell) wished to keep for
itself these 'excess revenues' which later were found to amount to
over $100 million per year," the lawsuit alleges.

Among other things, an order approved by the Corporation
Commission on Sept. 20, 1989, ordered Southwestern Bell to reduce
rates but did not order further reductions and refunds.
Mr. Anthony cast the lone dissent in the 2-1 decision and said the
majority decision "gives only minor or indirect benefit" to most
telephone customers.

"Just on principal, I believe some or all of the overcharge should
be refunded to the broad base of telephone consumers," Mr. Anthony
wrote in his dissent.

The lawsuit asks for a judicial determination that the 1989 order
"is constitutionally invalid and void" because it lacks approval
of a majority of the three-member commission when the bribed vote
of Hopkins is excluded.  The commission regulates public utilities
and the oil and gas industry, among other activities.

The lawsuit also seeks refunds of any "excess revenues" collected
by AT&T and Southwestern Bell since July 1, 1987.  The lawsuit
says the size of the class likely numbers hundreds of thousands of
current and former AT&T customers.


SPOKANE, WA: Faces Class Action Over Red-Light Camera Tickets
-------------------------------------------------------------
Daniel Moore, writing for The Spokesman-Review, reports that the
city of Spokane has not refunded traffic ticket money a judge
ruled was wrongfully collected using red-light cameras, and is
still is trying to collect on those who haven't paid, according to
a lawsuit.  A class-action lawsuit involving potentially thousands
of drivers asks the city to repay two-and-a-half years' worth of
tickets, worth $124 each, which could amount to $2.1 million.  The
traffic tickets were written for running red lights or turning
without coming to a complete stop.

SUTTER HEALTH: Appeals Court Rejects Wage-and-Hour Class Action
---------------------------------------------------------------
Kathy Robertson, writing for Sacramento Business Journal, reports
that an appeals court has nixed efforts by registered nurses to
qualify a big class action against Sutter Health over alleged
failure to provide meal and rest breaks.

The Court of Appeal for the First Appellate District ruled June 3
that lawyers behind three proposed class actions consolidated into
one case failed to prove workers received common treatment.

One of the cases -- which became the dominant case under
consolidation -- is a lawsuit filed in 2008 on behalf of nurses,
surgical technicians and ancillary staff at Sutter General
Hospital and other facilities in Sacramento-based health system.

Ultimately, plaintiffs in Aymer v. Sutter Health sought
certification of a class of up to 21,000 registered nurses, as
well as smaller subclasses.  They alleged that Sutter denied them
meal and rest breaks, failed to provide adequate relief so they
could take breaks and dissuaded them from seeking premium pay for
breaks they missed.

"We are pleased with the Court of Appeals decision and believe
that it is the correct decision," Sutter officials said in a
statement.  "Sutter Health affiliates comply in all aspects with
laws regarding meal and rest periods."

Plaintiffs' attorneys are considering whether to petition for
review of the decision by the California Supreme Court.

"We felt there were a lot of errors at the trial court level that
the Court of Appeal acknowledged," said Michael Singer, a
plaintiffs' attorney with the class action firm Cohelan Khoury &
Singer in San Diego.  "We are very disappointed.  We are
absolutely certain that a lot of nurses didn't get compensated for
missed required meal and rest breaks. The question is: Can you get
redress for all of these nurses in one class action?"

Twitter illegally spams users and nonusers with text-message ads
from third parties in an effort to prop up its bottom line, a
class action claims in California Federal Court, reports William
Dotinga at Courthouse News Service.

Lead plaintiff Beverly Nunes sued Twitter on June 19, claiming
Twitter's practice of texting ads to mobile phones violates the
Telephone Consumer Protection Act.  Nunes claims that because
Twitter does not generate revenue directly from its users, the
company has turned to automated texts to "tweet" ads and make
money.

Twitter makes nearly 90 percent of its revenue from the ads and 70
percent comes from mobile devices, according to the complaint.

The company processes almost 1 billion SMS (short message service)
tweets per month, and bought messaging infrastructure service
Cloudhopper in 2010 to connect directly to mobile carrier networks
worldwide, Nunes says.

Unfortunately for Twitter, however, cellular phone customers in
the United States must consent to receive SMS text ads.  While
some of its users have opted in, Twitter also sends texts to
numbers that have been recycled by mobile carriers -- bombarding
non-Twitter users who get the recycled cellphone number with ads,
according to the complaint.

While Twitter has options to clean up its database and respond to
opt-out requests, Nunes says that doing so would torpedo the
company's efforts to increase its profits.

"Despite industry guidelines, commercially available resources and
the obvious lack of consent associated with recycled numbers,
Twitter fails to take the necessary steps to insure that its
automated text messages are sent only to consenting recipients,
nor does it have incentive to do so.  Twitter is paid based on the
volume of activity of people using its platform," the complaint
states.

"The more SMS text messages Twitter sends (authorized or not), the
more people who may participate in Twitter and engage in its
advertisements, generating more money for Twitter.  Twitter also
benefits from network effects where more activity on Twitter
results in the creation and distribution of more content (i.e.,
Twitter has been one of the most-visited websites on the
internet), which attracts more users, platform partners and
advertisers, resulting in a cycle of value creation.  According to
Twitter, Tweets have appeared on over 8 million third-party
websites, and in the fourth quarter of 2013 there were
approximately 67 billion online impressions of Tweets off of
Twitter's properties."

Twitter transfers the consent of a telephone number's previous
owner to the new one, and frequently disregards reply messages to
stop or unsubscribe, Nunes says.

"Twitter knows, or is reckless in not knowing, that its SMS text
messages are sent to non-consenting, recycled cellular number
subscribers," the class action states.  "Indeed, Twitter has
received numerous consumer complaints alerting it to this very
fact and requesting that the messages stop.  Ultimately, Twitter
is responsible for verifying cellular telephone number ownership
and obtaining consent before sending automated text messages to
cellular telephone subscribers.  Even with prior cellular
subscriber consent, Twitter is liable under the Telephone Consumer
Protection Act for sending text messages to cellular numbers
reassigned to new subscribers without the new subscriber's
consent."

Nunes also accuses Twitter of ignoring its customers' requests to
opt out of the messages by making it next to impossible to
unsubscribe.

"Twitter makes it notoriously difficult for consumers to opt-out
or unsubscribe to its SMS text messages," Nunes says in the
complaint.  "For instance, according to Twitter, the commands
'Stop,' 'Quit,' 'End,' Cancel,' 'Unsubscribe' and "Arret' (when
replying to SMS messages) will deactivate your account only if you
are an SMS-only user, that is, a user who does not have an online
Twitter account but has previously communicated with Twitter via
SMS text.  If the cellular number is linked to an online Twitter
account, the command 'Off' must be used to stop SMS spam.
Ultimately, consumers (many of whom are unaware that the messages
are from Twitter) must be well-versed in Twitter's SMS commands to
effectively communicate a stop request and, even then, the outcome
is uncertain."

Nunes continues: "Twitter knows, or is reckless in not knowing,
that its SMS text messages to these cellular subscribers are
unauthorized.  Reply message stop requests are, by design, sent to
Twitter's short code, 40404, thereby directly informing Twitter
(as intended) that any subsequent messages are unauthorized.
Again, however, Twitter has little incentive to honor stop
requests.  With nearly all of its revenue coming from advertising
associated with the volume of activity on its system, each stop
request is a loss of potential recurring revenue.  Ultimately,
consumers are forced to bear the costs of receiving these
unsolicited and unauthorized text messages."

Twitter texted Nunes with ads several times a day -- often before
8 a.m. and after 9 p.m. -- even after she demanded that it stop,
according to the complaint.

Nunes seeks class certification, damages for each violation of the
TCPA, and an injunction to stop Twitter's spamming.

VERIFONE SYSTEMS: Appeal v. Securities Suit Approval Dismissed
--------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit issued an order,
dismissing an appeal against the final approval of a settlement
reached in In re VeriFone Holdings, Inc. Securities Litigation,
according to Verifone Systems, Inc.'s June 5, 2014, Form 10-Q
filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for the
quarter ended April 30, 2014.

On or after December 4, 2007, several securities class action
complaints were filed against the company and certain of the
company's officers, former officers, and a former director. These
lawsuits were consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the
Northern District of California and are currently captioned as In
re VeriFone Holdings, Inc. Securities Litigation, C 07-6140 EMC.
The original actions were: Eichenholtz v. VeriFone Holdings, Inc.
et al., C 07-6140 EMC; Lien v. VeriFone Holdings, Inc. et al., C
07-6195 JSW; Vaughn et al. v. VeriFone Holdings, Inc. et al., C
07-6197 VRW (Plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed this complaint on
March 7, 2008); Feldman et al. v. VeriFone Holdings, Inc. et al.,
C 07-6218 MMC; Cerini v. VeriFone Holdings, Inc. et al., C 07-6228
SC; Westend Capital Management LLC v. VeriFone Holdings, Inc. et
al., C 07-6237 MMC; Hill v. VeriFone Holdings, Inc. et al., C 07-
6238 MHP; Offutt v. VeriFone Holdings, Inc. et al., C 07-6241 JSW;
Feitel v. VeriFone Holdings, Inc., et al., C 08-0118 CW. On August
22, 2008, the court appointed plaintiff National Elevator Fund
lead plaintiff and its attorneys lead counsel. Lead plaintiff
filed its consolidated amended class action complaint on October
31, 2008, which asserts claims under the Securities Exchange Act
Sections 10(b), 20(a), and 20A and SEC Rule 10b-5 for securities
fraud and control person liability against the company and certain
of the company's current and former officers and directors, based
on allegations that the company and the individual defendants made
false or misleading public statements regarding the company's
business and operations during the putative class periods, and
seeks unspecified monetary damages and other relief. The company
filed the company's motion to dismiss on December 31, 2008. The
court granted the company's motion on May 26, 2009 and dismissed
the consolidated amended class action complaint with leave to
amend within 30 days of the ruling. The proceedings were stayed
pending a mediation held in October 2009 at which time the parties
failed to reach a mutually agreeable settlement. Lead plaintiff's
first amended complaint was filed on December 3, 2009 followed by
a second amended complaint filed on January 19, 2010. The company
filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint and the
hearing on the company's motion was held on May 17, 2010. In July
2010, prior to any court ruling on the company's motion, lead
plaintiff filed a motion for leave to file a third amended
complaint on the basis that it had newly obtained evidence.
Pursuant to a briefing schedule issued by the court the company
submitted the company's motion to dismiss the third amended
complaint and lead plaintiff filed its opposition, following which
the court took the matter under submission without further
hearing. On March 8, 2011, the court ruled in the company's favor
and dismissed the consolidated securities class action without
leave to amend. On April 5, 2011, lead plaintiff filed its notice
of appeal of the district court's ruling to the U.S. Court of
Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. On June 24 and June 27, 2011, lead
plaintiff dismissed its appeal as against defendants Paul
Periolat, William Atkinson, and Craig Bondy. Lead plaintiff filed
its opening brief on appeal on July 28, 2011. The company filed
the company's answering brief on September 28, 2011 and lead
plaintiff filed its reply brief on October 31, 2011. A hearing on
oral arguments for this appeal was held before a judicial panel of
the Ninth Circuit on May 17, 2012. On December 21, 2012, the Ninth
Circuit issued its opinion reversing the district court's
dismissal of the consolidated shareholder securities class action
against the company and certain of the company's officers and
directors, with the exception of the dismissal of lead plaintiff's
claims under Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act, which
the Ninth Circuit affirmed. On January 4, 2013, the company filed
a petition for en banc rehearing with the Ninth Circuit. On
January 30, 2013, the Ninth Circuit denied the petition for
rehearing. On February 8, 2013, the Ninth Circuit issued a mandate
returning this case to the U.S. District Court for the Northern
District of California for further proceeding on lead plaintiff's
claims, except for the dismissed Section 20(a) claim.

On August 9, 2013, the company entered into a stipulation of
settlement in this consolidated shareholder securities class
action with and among the other defendants and the lead plaintiff
therein. The settlement is subject to various customary
conditions, including preliminary approval by the U.S. District
Court for the Northern District of California, notice to class
members, class member opt-out thresholds and final approval by the
court. If the settlement becomes final, the total settlement
consideration paid for the benefit of the settlement class would
be $95.0 million, plus a potential contingent adjustment if the
company had been acquired on or before April 15, 2014. The company
has coverage from the company's insurance carriers for this
settlement consideration in the amount of approximately $33.8
million. The net amount of approximately $61.2 million (excluding
the contingent adjustment) would be paid by the company. On
October 15, 2013, the court entered an order preliminarily
approving the settlement. On November 5, 2013, the company
deposited approximately $61.2 million, and the company's insurance
carriers have deposited the remaining portion, of the $95.0
million settlement consideration into an escrow account for the
settlement. The hearing on final approval of the settlement was
held on February 14, 2014. On February 18, 2014, the court issued
an order granting the parties' motion for settlement, and
indicated that it intended to issue a final approval of the
settlement, subject to the lead plaintiff's submission of a notice
plan regarding Israeli investors that includes (i) a longer time
period for Israeli class members to file their claims and (ii) the
dissemination to Israeli investors of a Hebrew language version of
the notice of the proposed settlement, proof of claim and release
form (the "Hebrew-Language Notice"). On February 20, 2014, in
response to the court's order, the lead plaintiff filed a proposed
notice plan that included (i) an extension of the time period for
Israeli class members to file claims to April 30, 2014, (ii) a
plan to mail the Hebrew-Language Notice to Israeli investors,
(iii) a plan to publish the Hebrew-Language Notice in a leading
newspaper in Israel, and (iv) a revision to the claims website to
post the Hebrew-Language Notice and make clear that the claims
deadline for Israeli class members has been extended to April 30,
2014. On February 25, 2014, the court issued a final order
approving the settlement, dismissing the case with prejudice and
entering judgment in the action. One of the objectors to the
settlement filed a notice of appeal to the court's February 25,
2014 judgment and orders, and subsequently filed a motion for
voluntary dismissal of the appeal with prejudice. On June 2, 2014,
the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit issued an order,
dismissing the appeal with prejudice.


VERIFONE SYSTEMS: Jurisdiction for Israeli Stock Suit at Issue
--------------------------------------------------------------
The inclusion of Israeli plaintiffs in the federal securities
lawsuit pending against VeriFone Holdings, Inc. in the U.S.
remains in question, according to Verifone Systems, Inc.'s June 5,
2014, Form 10-Q filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission for the quarter ended April 30, 2014.

On January 27, 2008, a class action complaint was filed against
the company in the Central District Court in Tel Aviv, Israel on
behalf of purchasers of the company's stock on the Tel Aviv Stock
Exchange. The complaint seeks compensation for damages allegedly
incurred by the class of plaintiffs due to the publication of
erroneous financial reports. The company filed a motion to stay
the action, in light of the proceedings already filed in the
United States, on March 31, 2008. A hearing on the motion was held
on May 25, 2008. Further briefing in support of the stay motion,
specifically with regard to the threshold issue of applicable law,
was submitted on June 24, 2008. On September 11, 2008, the Israeli
District Court ruled in the company's favor, holding that U.S. law
would apply in determining the company's liability. On October 7,
2008, plaintiffs filed a motion for leave to appeal the Israeli
District Court's ruling to the Israeli Supreme Court. The
company's response to plaintiffs' appeal motion was filed on
January 18, 2009. The Israeli District Court has stayed its
proceedings until the Israeli Supreme Court rules on plaintiffs'
motion for leave to appeal. On January 27, 2010, after a hearing
before the Israeli Supreme Court, the court dismissed the
plaintiffs' motion for leave to appeal and addressed the case back
to the Israeli District Court. The Israeli Supreme Court
instructed the Israeli District Court to rule whether the Israel
class action should be stayed, under the assumption that the
applicable law is U.S. law. Plaintiffs subsequently filed an
application for reconsideration of the Israeli District Court's
ruling that U.S. law is the applicable law. Following a hearing on
plaintiffs' application, on April 12, 2010, the parties agreed to
stay the proceedings pending resolution of the U.S. securities
class action, without prejudice to plaintiffs' right to appeal the
Israeli District Court's decision regarding the applicable law to
the Israeli Supreme Court. On May 25, 2010, plaintiff filed a
motion for leave to appeal the decision regarding the applicable
law with the Israeli Supreme Court. In August 2010, plaintiff
filed an application to the Israeli Supreme Court arguing that the
U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Morrison et al. v. National
Australia Bank Ltd., 561 U.S. __, 130 S. Ct. 2869 (2010), may
affect the outcome of the appeal currently pending before the
Court and requesting that this authority be added to the Court's
record. Plaintiff concurrently filed an application with the
Israeli District Court asking that court to reverse its decision
regarding the applicability of U.S. law to the Israel class
action, as well as to cancel its decision to stay the Israeli
proceedings in favor of the U.S. class action in light of the U.S.
Supreme Court's decision in Morrison. On August 25, 2011, the
Israeli District Court issued a decision denying plaintiff's
application and reaffirming its ruling that the law applicable to
the Israel class action is U.S. law. The Israeli District Court
also ordered that further proceedings in the case be stayed
pending the decision on appeal in the U.S. class action.

On November 13, 2011, plaintiff filed an amended application for
leave to appeal addressing the Israeli District Court's ruling.
The company filed an amended response on December 28, 2011. On
January 1, 2012, the Israeli Supreme Court ordered consideration
of the application by three justices. On July 2, 2012, the Israeli
Supreme Court ordered the company to file an updated notice on the
status of the proceedings in the U.S. securities class action then
pending in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit by
October 1, 2012. On October 11, 2012, the company filed an updated
status notice in the Israeli Supreme Court on the proceedings in
the U.S. securities class action pending at the time in the U.S.
Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. On January 9, 2013, the
Israeli Supreme Court held a further hearing on the status of the
appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and
recommended that the parties meet and confer regarding the
inclusion of the Israeli plaintiffs in the federal class action
pending in the U.S. On February 10, 2013, the Israeli Supreme
Court issued an order staying the case pursuant to the joint
notice submitted to the court by the parties on February 4, 2013.
The plaintiff and putative class members in this action are
included in the stipulated settlement of the federal securities
class action, In re VeriFone Holdings, Inc., unless an individual
plaintiff opts out. Following the February 25, 2014 judgment and
orders by the U.S. court, in April 2014, the parties in the
Israeli class action filed a joint motion requesting that the
Israeli Supreme Court renew the proceedings on appeal concerning
the determination of the applicable law. A hearing was scheduled
for June 23, 2014.


VERIFONE SYSTEMS: Seeks to Junk Securities Lawsuit in Calif.
------------------------------------------------------------
Verifone Systems, Inc. is seeking to dismiss a consolidated
securities lawsuit pending against it in the U.S. District Court
for the Northern District of California, according to the
company's June 5, 2014, Form 10-Q filing with the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission for the quarter ended April 30, 2014.

On March 7, 2013, a putative securities class action was filed in
the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California
against the company certain of the company's former officers and
one of the company's current officers and alleged claims in
connection with the company's February 20, 2013 announcement of
preliminary financial results for the fiscal quarter ended January
31, 2013. The action, captioned Sanders v. VeriFone Systems, Inc.
et al., Case No. C 13-1038, and subsequently re-captioned In re
VeriFone Securities Litigation, was initially brought on behalf of
a putative class of purchasers of VeriFone securities between
December 14, 2011 and February 19, 2013 and asserted claims under
the Securities Exchange Act Sections 10(b) and 20(a) and SEC Rule
10b-5 for securities fraud and control person liability. The
claims were based on allegations that the company and the
individual defendants made false or misleading public statements
regarding the company's business, operations, and financial
controls during the putative class period. The complaint sought
unspecified monetary damages and other relief. Two additional
class actions related to the same matter (Laborers Local 235
Benefit Funds v. VeriFone Systems, Inc. et al., Case No. CV 13-
1676 and Bland v. VeriFone Systems, Inc. et al., Case No. CV 13-
1853) were filed in April 2013. On May 6, 2013, several putative
plaintiffs and plaintiffs' law firms filed motions to consolidate
these three securities class actions and requesting appointment as
lead plaintiff and lead counsel, respectively. The plaintiffs in
Laborers Local 235 Benefit Funds v. VeriFone Systems, Inc. et al.
and Bland v. VeriFone Systems, Inc. et al. voluntarily dismissed
their respective actions, without prejudice, on July 10, 2013 and
July 17, 2013, respectively, and filed motions to be appointed
lead plaintiff in the action previously captioned Sanders v.
VeriFone Systems, Inc. et al. On October 7, 2013, the court
entered an order appointing the Selz Funds as lead plaintiffs and
appointing Gold Bennett Cera & Sidener LLP as lead counsel. Lead
plaintiffs' first amended complaint was filed on December 16,
2013. The first amended complaint expanded the putative class
period to December 14, 2011 and February 20, 2013, inclusive, and
removed the current officer who was named in the original
complaint from the action. The company filed the company's motion
to dismiss the amended complaint on February 14, 2014, lead
plaintiffs filed their opposition on April 15, 2014 and the
company filed the company's reply on May 16, 2014. On May 27,
2014, the court took the motion to dismiss under submission
without oral argument.


VERIFONE SYSTEMS: Motion to Junk "Zoumboulakis" Under Submission
----------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California
took the motion to dismiss Zoumboulakis v. McGinn et al.
under submission without oral argument, according to Verifone
Systems, Inc.'s June 5, 2014, Form 10-Q filing with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission for the quarter ended April 30,
2014.

On May 24, 2013, a federal derivative action, Zoumboulakis v.
McGinn et al., Case No. 13-CV-02379, was filed in the U.S.
District Court for the Northern District of California against
certain current and former directors and officers derivatively on
the company's behalf. The complaint, which names the company as a
nominal defendant, alleges breach of fiduciary duty and abuse of
control and asserts claims under Section 14(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 for false or misleading financial statements
and proxy statement disclosures. The complaint seeks unspecified
monetary damages, including exemplary damages, restitution from
defendants, injunctive relief directing the company to make
certain corporate governance reforms, and payment of the
plaintiff's costs and attorneys' fees. On August 12, 2013, the
court entered defendants' motion seeking to relate this action to
the pending shareholder class action, Sanders v. VeriFone Systems,
Inc. et al. On October 31, 2013, the court entered a stipulation
and order setting a December 31, 2013 deadline for the filing of
an amended complaint and setting a January 30, 2014 deadline for
defendants to move or answer. An initial case management
conference was held on January 17, 2014. On January 21, 2014,
plaintiff filed an amended complaint, which removed one of the
company's former officers from the action and added an additional
former director as a defendant. The amended complaint brings
claims against the defendants for breach of fiduciary duty, abuse
of control, violations of Securities Exchange Act Section 14(a),
and unjust enrichment. The amended complaint also brings claims
for insider trading against three of the named former and current
directors. The company filed the company's motion to dismiss the
amended complaint on March 7, 2014, plaintiff filed her opposition
on April 23, 2014, and the company filed the company's reply on
May 16, 2014. On May 27, 2014, the court took the motion to
dismiss under submission without oral argument.


VERINT SYSTEMS: Mediation Ongoing in Lawsuit by VSL Employees
-------------------------------------------------------------
Mediation is ongoing in a consolidated lawsuit filed against
Verint Systems Limited on behalf of employees and former
employees, according to Verint Systems Inc.'s June 5, 2014, Form
10-Q filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for
the quarter ended April 30, 2014.

On March 26, 2009, legal actions were commenced by Ms. Orit
Deutsch, a former employee of the company's subsidiary, Verint
Systems Limited ("VSL"), against VSL in the Tel Aviv Regional
Labor Court (Case Number 4186/09) (the "Deutsch Labor Action") and
against Comverse Technology, Inc. in the Tel Aviv Regional
District Court (Case Number 1335/09) (the "Deutsch District
Action"). In the Deutsch Labor Action, Ms. Deutsch filed a motion
to approve a class action lawsuit on the grounds that she purports
to represent a class of the company's employees and former
employees who were granted Verint and CTI stock options and were
allegedly damaged as a result of the suspension of option
exercises during the company's previous extended filing delay
period. In the Deutsch District Action, in addition to a small
amount of individual damages, Ms. Deutsch is seeking to certify a
class of plaintiffs who were allegedly damaged due to their
inability to exercise Verint and CTI stock options as a result of
alleged negligence by CTI in its financial reporting. The class
certification motions do not specify an amount of damages. On
February 8, 2010, the Deutsch Labor Action was dismissed for lack
of material jurisdiction and was transferred to the Tel Aviv
Regional District Court and consolidated with the Deutsch District
Action. On March 16, 2009 and March 26, 2009, respectively, legal
actions were commenced by Ms. Roni Katriel, a former employee of
CTI's former subsidiary, Comverse Limited, against Comverse
Limited in the Tel Aviv Regional Labor Court (Case Number 3444/09)
(the "Katriel Labor Action") and against CTI in the Tel Aviv
Regional District Court (Case Number 1334/09) (the "Katriel
District Action"). In the Katriel Labor Action, Ms. Katriel is
seeking to certify a class of plaintiffs who were granted CTI
stock options and were allegedly damaged as a result of the
suspension of option exercises during CTI's previous extended
filing delay period. In the Katriel District Action, in addition
to a small amount of individual damages, Ms. Katriel is seeking to
certify a class of plaintiffs who were allegedly damaged due to
their inability to exercise CTI stock options as a result of
alleged negligence by CTI in its financial reporting. The class
certification motions do not specify an amount of damages. On
March 2, 2010, the Labor Court ordered the transfer of the case to
the District Court in Tel Aviv - Jaffa, based on an agreed motion
filed by the parties requesting such transfer.
On April 4, 2012, Ms. Deutsch and Ms. Katriel filed an uncontested
motion to consolidate and amend their claims and on June 7, 2012,
the court allowed Ms. Deutsch and Ms. Katriel to file the
consolidated class certification motion and an amended
consolidated complaint against VSL, CTI, and Comverse Limited.
Following CTI's announcement of its intention to effect the
Comverse share distribution, on July 12, 2012, the plaintiffs
filed a motion requesting that the District Court order CTI to set
aside up to $150 million in assets to secure any future judgment.
The District Court ruled that it would not decide this motion
until the Deutsch and Katriel class certification motion was
heard. On August 16, 2012, in light of the announcement of the
signing of the CTI Merger Agreement, the plaintiffs filed a motion
for leave to appeal this District Court ruling to the Israeli
Supreme Court. The company filed the company's response to this
motion on September 6, 2012.

Prior to the consummation of the Comverse share distribution, CTI
either sold or transferred substantially all of its business
operations and assets (other than its equity ownership interests
in the company and Comverse) to Comverse or unaffiliated third
parties. On October 31, 2012, CTI completed the Comverse share
distribution, in which it distributed all of the outstanding
shares of common stock of Comverse to CTI's shareholders. As a
result of the Comverse share distribution, Comverse became an
independent public company and ceased to be a wholly owned
subsidiary of CTI, and CTI ceased to have any material assets
other than its equity interest in us.

The company and the other defendants filed the company's responses
to the complaint on November 11, 2012 and plaintiffs filed their
replies on December 20, 2012. A pre-trial hearing for the case was
held on December 25, 2012, during which all parties agreed to
attempt to settle the dispute through mediation.

On February 4, 2013, the company completed the CTI Merger. As a
result of the CTI Merger, the company has assumed certain rights
and liabilities of CTI, including any liability of CTI arising out
of the Deutsch District Action and the Katriel District Action.
However, under the terms of the Distribution Agreement between CTI
and Comverse relating to the Comverse share distribution, the
company, as successor to CTI, are entitled to indemnification from
Comverse for any losses the company suffers in the company's
capacity as successor-in-interest to CTI in connection with the
Deutsch District Action and the Katriel District Action.

On February 28, 2013, the mediation process began and, as of the
date of the Company's report, remains ongoing.

WESTFIELD RENTAL: Local Baking Suit Remanded to Trial Court
-----------------------------------------------------------
Local Baking Products, Inc. filed a class action complaint on its
behalf and all others who received unsolicited facsimile
transmissions from defendant Westfield Rental Mart (Rental Mart),
in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), 47
U.S.C.A. Section 227. Following the entry of a consent judgment
between Local Baking and Rental Mart, Farmers Insurance Company of
Flemington (Farmers), Rental Mart's insurer under a Business
Owner's Policy, moved to intervene in the underlying class action
litigation. The trial court granted Farmers' motion allowing
permissive intervention and also decertified the class of
plaintiffs relying on the Superior Court of New Jersey, Appellate
Division's opinion in Local Baking Products, Inc. v. Kosher Bagel
Munch, Inc., 421 N.J.Super. 268 (App. Div.), certif. denied, 209
N.J. 96 (2011). Thereafter, the judge dismissed Local Baking's
complaint.

Following the motion judge's retirement, a different Law Division
judge entered an order on May 6, 2013, memorializing the
conclusions reached by the motion judge in his opinion.

This appeal ensued.

In an Opinion dated June 23, 2014, a copy of which is available at
http://is.gd/p5pw8bfrom Leagle.com, the Superior Court of New
Jersey, Appellate Division concluded that the trial judge did not
abuse his discretion in granting Farmers' motion for permissive
intervention. Furthermore, the accompanying decertification of the
class action was appropriate in light of Kosher Bagel, ruled the
Appellate Court.

However, Local Baking's individual claims against Rental Mart
should not have been dismissed with prejudice, held the Appellate
Court.  The judge's opinion failed to analyze the sufficiency of
these claims, and that portion of the order must be reversed.

Accordingly, said the Appellate Court, the trial court ruling is
affirmed in part, reversed in part and remanded for further
proceedings.

The case is LOCAL BAKING PRODUCTS, INC., individually and as the
representative of a class of similarly situated persons,
Plaintiff-Appellant, v. WESTFIELD RENTAL MART, INC., d/b/a PARTY
STOP COSTUME CORNER, a/k/a, WESTFIELD RENTAL MART, INC.,
