Dismissal of Suit Against Standard Metals Processing, Inc.
On May 14, 2014, Deborah King filed a suit against Standard Metals Processing, Inc. (“SMPR”) in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada. Ms. King’s complaint (the “Complaint”) alleged that on January 11, 2011 her husband, Stephen King, entered into a Stock Option Agreement (the “Agreement”) with SMPR, granting him stock options. The Complaint alleged further that Mr. King assigned the stock options to Ms. King on January 21, 2011 and that SMPR breached the Agreement by refusing to allow Ms. King to exercise said stock options.
SMPR filed a motion to dismiss or stay the proceeding and, in the alternative, a motion for a more definite statement on July 16, 2014. Ms. King filed a response in opposition to SMPR’s motions, and SMPR filed a reply on August 6, 2014.
On December 9, 2014, the District Court of Nevada issued an order granting SMPR’s motion to dismiss Ms. King’s action against SMPR.
