Delaware Judge Dismisses Complaint Against Meta Platforms
Apr 30, 2024 12:01 PM

02:38 PM EDT, 04/30/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Meta Platforms ( META ) won a victory Tuesday in the Delaware Court of Chancery when Vice Chancellor J. Travis Laster dismissed a complaint from a shareholder activist that claimed that the company's pursuit of profits jeopardized public safety, social well-being, and its stockholders' diversified portfolios.

The complaint failed to make a compelling case for changing Delaware and US corporate laws to operate on the assumption that a corporation's stockholders are diversified, according to Laster.

Price: 431.38, Change: -1.24, Percent Change: -0.29
