The Second Circuit Takes a Whack at Morrison’s Second Prong : The D&O Diary

By Securities Docket on March 5, 2012, 3:39 pm

In a March 1, 2012 opinion, the Second Circuit in the Absolute Activist Value Master Fund Limited v. Ficeto case for the first time examined the requirements under Morrison’s second prong, holding that in order to establish that existence of a domestic transaction in other securities, a plaintiff “must allege facts suggesting that either irrevocable liability was incurred or title transferred within the United States.” The opinion helpfully suggests the kinds of allegations that would satisfy this test, and also clarifies that certain allegations that are not relevant in determining whether or not this standard has been satisfied.
