CardioNet, Inc. is an American medical devices company that provides heart monitoring products such as a mobile cardiac telemetry device.

According to the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, on March 5, 2010, West Palm Beach Police Pension Fund filed a putative class action Complaint in California Superior Court, San Diego County asserting claims for violations of Sections 11, 12 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, against CardioNet, nine current and former officers and directors of CardioNet and six underwriters of CardioNet's intial public offering (IPO) consummated March 25, 2008 and/or Secondary Offering on August 6, 2008 (together with the IPO, the "Offerings").

Specifically, the Plaintiff seeks to bring claims on behalf of all those who acquired the common stock of CardioNet pursuant and/or traceable to the Company's Offerings. On March 10, 2010, Plaintiff filed an Amended Complaint that deleted the claims for violations of the California Corporations Code. The claims are based on purported misrepresentations and omissions in the Registration Statements for the Offerings relating to alleged business decisions made by CardioNet that were supposedly not disclosed to investors and alleged misstatements concerning CardioNet's business.

On April 5, 2010, all Defendants removed the case to the Southern District of California, where it was pending. On April 7, 2010, Defendants filed a Motion to transfer the case to the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, which Motion to transfer is noticed for hearing on June 28, 2010. On April 23, 2010, the Plaintiff moved to remand the case to state court.

On June 10, 2010, the Plaintiff voluntarily dismissed its claims against Defendant Barclay’s Capital, Inc. without prejudice pursuant to 3 Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a).

On March 24, 2011, Judge M. James Lorenz granted the Plaintiff's motion to remand the action to the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Diego.
