nerd,

And Rock is absolutely right. It could have been filed, however, at the time GTE chose not to pursue an appeal. Please explain why it wasn't. TIA


I believe you are suggesting that since GTE decided NOT to pursue the 2nd appeal that the Amex should have filed the 25-NSE right away or in a short period of time? And by not doing so you feel it was to further harm GTE?

Below you will find some Amex delisting comparables all of which involved the appeal process and the amount of time to file the 25-NSE..I see nothing unique to GTE that would substantiate your claim/theory..

Example:
Rica Foods, Inc....they went through both appeal processes and were notified June 19th they would be delisted. Form 25-NSE was filed October 24th, over 4 months.

"By letter dated June 19, 2006 the Exchange notified the Company that the Committee had affirmed the decision of the Listing Qualifications Panel to delist the Company’s common stock from AMEX pursuant to Rule 1003(d) of the Amex Company Guide."

AXM PHARMA, INC.
"On May 31, 2006, a written hearing was conducted by the Panel. By letter dated June 1, 2006, the Exchange notified the Company of the Panel’s decision to deny the Company’s appeal for continued listing of its common stock on the Amex and to authorize delisting proceedings.
