"The Registrant announced today that it has selected Missouri-based Swiecicki & Muskett, LLC (“SM”) to coordinate with the Registrant’s Louisiana-based and New York-based litigation legal counsel on certain pending and forthcoming matters of litigation including, but not limited to, the Registrant’s January 2022 announcement that it had concluded a twelve-month investigation into numerous false and misleading statements about the Registrant. These false statements are posted under pseudonyms and appear to be deliberate attempts to adversely influence the Registrant’s stock price.
The Registrant announced that SM and the Registrant’s Louisiana-based litigation legal counsel will also coordinate with other national litigators who specialize in certain areas of expertise including, but not limited to, (i) New York usury law; and, Securities Act and FINRA violations including aggressive and unyielding predatory lenders; (ii) identifying anonymous cyber-attacks through the internet including any entities that assisted in or permitted the posting of such false statements; and (iii) class action litigation."
