M1 not sure what those posters were doing but I seriously doubt that Gen Dyn. would be interested in FRPT if it were not a serious company. For someone to post slander about it being a scam is not a wise move unless they wish to prove it and become party in such litigation. jmho

The suit I see filed has to do with a breach of fiduciary responsibility about the price of the stock in a sale proceeding, but no indication of what a couple of posters were posting about.
Perhaps I am missing something, I will review it further,

(I am a NON stockholder), but intensely dislike internet accusations made by folks with only Alias', although some companies have cracked down on it through the ISPs from what I am told since it becomes slander against their CEOs. Note the phone # if anyone wishes to get the real skinny.

This is what I found:

The claims concern whether the Force Protection Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to Force Protection stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before entering into this transaction and whether General Dynamics Corporation is underpaying for Force Protection shares, thus unlawfully harming Force Protection stockholders. In particular, at least one analyst set a price target of $8.00 per Force Protection share and Force Protection stock traded as high as $5.73 per share as recently as February 2011.
