OK Scott, one last time. Managers and officers who sell shares on the basis of inside information to unsuspecting shareholders just before the price plunges may be guilty of a form of fraud under rule 10(b)5 of the '34 Act. These matters are pursued through civil suits. So it is the same thing. Cowpatty and Corel managers may or may not be guilty, but this is how it is dealt with. Fraud is not necessarily a criminal offense, and "government entities" have nothing to do with the kind of civil suit that may be pursued here, although clearly the SEC and NASDAQ could investigate as well, since they have many enforcement duties under the securities laws. If you are serious about investing, you might want to read some basic background material on business law, since it is a fundamentally important aspect of investing. Indeed, it is quite risky to invest without some knowledge of this area. You see Beanbonebrain, as often as I have made posts explaining these concepts, people still do not understand them. So, clearly, I will need to continue. FOCUS ON THE LAWSUIT AGAINST COREL!!! TO GET INVOLVED, CONTACT THIS LAWFIRM: milberg.com Happy Investing! Vanni
