The Complaint asserts violations of the federal securities laws against AspenBio and certain of its officers and directors for issuing materially false and misleading statements about the effectiveness of AppyScore as a test to diagnose appendicitis. According to the Complaint, Defendants were aware or recklessly disregarded information that AppyScore was not effective in detecting appendicitis as it could not differentiate between appendicitis and other medical conditions. According to the Complaint, this adverse information caused the Company's stock to drop, causing investors substantial losses.
If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than November 30, 2010.
