Delaware Chancery Court Grants Overwhelming Victory
to CNS Response
Dismissed - - Leonard Brandt v. CNS Response, Inc. et al
Costa Mesa, CA – December 3, 2009 – CNS Response, Inc. (OTCBB: CNSO) today announced that the Delaware Court of Chancery has dismissed complaints brought against the Company by its former CEO Leonard Brandt.
At the conclusion of a two-day trial that commenced December 1, the Court entered judgment for CNS and dismissed with prejudice Mr. Brandt's action brought pursuant to 8 Del. Code section 225. The Court thereby found that the purported special meeting of stockholders convened by Mr. Brandt on September 4, 2009 was not valid and that the directors purportedly elected at that meeting will not be seated.
The Chancery Court also denied injunctive relief sought by Mr. Brandt to prevent the voting of shares issued by CNS Response in connection with the Company’s bridge financing in June and securities offering in August, and dismissed Mr. Brandt's claims regarding those financings and stock issuances. The Chancery Court also dismissed with prejudice another action brought by Mr. Brandt, in which he claimed he had not been provided with information owed to him.
George Carpenter, CNS Response chief executive officer, commented, “We are pleased with the Court’s decision as this is a complete victory for the company and its shareholders. We would like to sincerely thank our shareholders, employees and board of directors, whose courage and commitment made this possible. We’re ready to move forward with the important work of building a company and bringing forth a technology that can help millions of people.”
