Starz is an American premium cable and satellite television network. Its programming includes theatrically released motion pictures and original television series.

According to the law firm press release, the lawsuit alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants issued materially false and misleading statements to investors and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Starz lacked adequate internal controls; (2) according to a former Starz senior executive, Starz’s contract with Comcast Corporation was a result of illicit business practices; and (3) as a result, Starz’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

On February 11, 2016, the Court issued an Order appointing lead Plaintiff and approving lead Counsel.

Pursuant to a joint stipulation of the parties, this case was dismissed on March 28, 2016.
