Abstract

Amici are law professors whose scholarship and teaching focuses on corporate law and the federal securities laws. Law professors have an interest in ensuring that the securities laws are interpreted to accurately reflect both current financial economic scholarship and the historical underpinnings of the securities laws. Amici filed a brief amici curiae in Erica P. John Fund, Inc. v. Halliburton Co., 131 S. Ct. 2179 (2011) (No. 09-1403), addressing the consideration of market impact and the fraud on the market theory at the class certification stage of Rule 10b-5 securities fraud suits.
