Keller Rohrback was appointed Co-Lead Counsel in this class action brought on behalf of participants and beneficiaries of the Lucent defined contribution plans that invested in Lucent stock. The complaint alleged that the defendants withheld and concealed material information from participants, thereby encouraging participants and beneficiaries to continue to make and to maintain substantial investments in company stock and the plans. The settlement provided for, among other relief, the payment of $69 million in cash and stock to the plan. Judge Joel Pisano of the New Jersey federal court approved the settlement on December 12, 2003.
