3rd Circuit Upholds Dismissal of Class Action Against Salomon Smith Barney

The Legal Intelligencer

Taking a broad reading of the Securities Litigation Uniform Standards Act, a unanimous 3rd Circuit panel has upheld the removal and dismissal of a state court class action suit against Salomon Smith Barney brought by brokerage customers who claimed they were given biased investment research. The appeals court found that although the suit sounded only in state law claims, the allegations related to the purchase or sale of securities and were therefore pre-empted by SLUSA.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
