On May 10, 2016, the United States District Court for the Central District of California, in a 31-page decision, dismissed a putative class action lawsuit for securities fraud against Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited. Judge Wright held that the plaintiffs failed to adequately plead a material misrepresentation or scienter and that certain allegations were barred on statute of limitations grounds.
The Simpson Thacher team on this case is Chet Kronenberg, Colin Rolfs and JoAnne Jennings. Chet argued the motion to dismiss on behalf of Yingli.
