Because of these “frivolous” Rule 10b-5 lawsuits, the PSLRA raised three provisions that plaintiffs would have to meet to launch complaints. False statements be pleaded "with particularity" 15 U.S.C. § 78u-4(b)(1). If a plaintiff's complaint does not specifically identify the allegedly fraudulent statements and explain why they were misleading, the complaint will be dismissed. This provision puts the burden of proof on the plaintiff, allowing defendants to respond to the complaint. The Rule 9(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure already required that allegations of fraud be pleaded with particularity. Plea creates a "strong inference" of scienter The PSLRA also requires a plaintiff to allege that the defendant acted with the required state of mind, i.e., that he knew …show more content…
The Supreme Court observed that an investor who purchases a stock at an artificially inflated price suffers no economic loss at the time of purchase. The loss occurs only when the truth is disclosed and the stock price falls as a result. Thus, a plaintiff who sells his shares "before the relevant truth begins to leak out" does not suffer any economic damage. The plaintiff in Dura failed to allege that the "share price fell significantly after the truth became known", and therefore the complaint had not alleged loss

R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6), a motion to dismiss is proper when the plaintiff fails to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. Fed R. Civ. P. 12 (b)(6). In addition, a Claim for Relief must have a short and plain statement that shows how the plaintiff is entitled to relief. Fed R. Civ. P. 8(a)(2). To overcome a 12(b)(6) motion the plaintiff must have “enough facts to state a claim of relief that is plausible on its face.” Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly., 550 U.S. 544, 570 (2007). Plausibility on its face requires the plaintiff to plead enough factual content to “draw a reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the misconduct it alleged.” Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662,668 (2009) (quoting Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570 (2007)). While a court is required to accept all the allegations in a complaint as true if the well-pleaded facts do not permit a court to conclude more than the “mere possibility of misconduct… it has not shown the pleader is entitled to relief.” Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 678; Twombly, 550 U.S. at 555.

There does not appear to be any definite case law on the question of whether a motion under K.S.A. 60-241(a)(2) should count as a motion to dismiss for timing purposes.

Largely, any argument we make seems to need to be based in either language or the purpose of the rule.
Personally I don’t believe that Chief Pirsig, should have even been given the working role of Chief. Being the Chief of police takes a lot of work and you must be able to make quick decisions when needed. Because the chief did not feel comfortable making unanticipated decisions in unsettled circumstance, I don’t think he should be the Chief of the police department. He clearly had so much anxiety about making a decision he was physically ill and had to take days off from work.
Naïve defendants may enter into plea agreements with prosecutors not knowing that they have the right to litigate fully any charges against them.”

I feel that Dr. P has a case in this situation. I feel he has the ability to sue for compensatory damages. I would argue that Dr. P is a public figure. As you said he is the foremost academic on exposure to violence and the human psyche. Since he is a public figure and his work is important to public interest. Because of this we have to prove malice. In this case we also have to determine how defamation of DR. P is present. We have to answer how his reputation is being harmed, how his standing in the community is being harmed.
