The Supreme Court dismissed Facebook’s appeal in Facebook v. Amalgamated Bank on Friday, handing a victory to the Firm’s clients who had prevailed in the court below. Kevin argued the case on behalf of investors earlier this month. While we represent the full gamut of clients, we take particular pride in representing the little guy, the startups, and the innovators, regularly going up against some of the nation’s most prominent law firms and most powerful institutions. We also take great pleasure in working closely with trial counsel, combining our appellate expertise with co-counsel’s subject-matter experience and deep knowledge of the case.?

Thank you so much!
Yesterday, Deutsch Hunt PLLC filed an amicus brief on behalf of institutional investors iin an important case about required risk factor disclosures for public companies to be argued in November, Facebook v. Amalgamated Bank, No. 23-980. Hyland Hunt was counsel of record. As we say in the brief, "Reasonable investors like amici (or their investment managers) apply common sense and ascribe words their ordinary meaning. So reasonable investors understand that when a company describes a risk as merely hypothetical, as Facebook did here, it implies that the risk has not already materialized. A hypothetical event is hardly the same as a past event that already happened. When a company states that a certain event could cause harm if it occurred, but omits that the event has already happened, the securities laws require it to be held responsible for misleading investors." The brief is attached.
