A lawyer friend of mine said that this type of suit can be called a “claw suit” where the lawyers put feelers out looking for plaintiffs. Apparently they don’t even know if they have a case at this point.
Exactly! It is also called "trolling". Just a racket trying to get some money imo. They also sent out the same exact letter today on Alexza Pharmaceuticals, Inc., TRW Automotive Holdings Corp., Celsion Corp., a reminder to Lennett Company, Inc., And then to 21 Vianet Group and Bankrate, Inc. on Sept 16. If you google them you will see they do this week in and week out. I have a name in mind for this type but I will keep it to myself.
