DENVER, Aug. 26, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The law firm of Dyer & Berens LLP (www.DyerBerens.com) today announced that October 7, 2008 is the deadline for investors to seek a lead plaintiff appointment in the pending class action lawsuit against Reddy Ice Holdings, Inc. ("Reddy Ice") (NYSE:FRZ) and others.
On August 8, 2008, Dyer & Berens LLP filed Chamberlain v. Reddy Ice Holdings, Inc. et al., Case No. 2:08-cv-13451-PDB-SDP, in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan on behalf of investors who purchased the common stock of Reddy Ice between August 10, 2005 and March 6, 2008, inclusive. The complaint charges Reddy Ice and certain of its officers and directors with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
If you are a purchaser of Reddy Ice securities, you may have the legal right to petition the court to be appointed a "lead plaintiff." A lead plaintiff is a representative party that acts on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Any such request must satisfy certain criteria and be made on or before October 7, 2008. In the alternative, you may do nothing at this time and remain an absent class member. In making your decision, you should take into account that the federal securities laws are specifically designed to encourage individuals and institutions with large financial losses as a result of the alleged securities violations to seek lead plaintiff appointment.
If you would like to discuss a potential lead plaintiff appointment, or your rights and interests with respect to the lawsuit, you may contact Jeffrey A. Berens, Esq. at (888) 300-3362, (303) 861-1764 or via email at jeff@dyerberens.com.
