Corporate & Securities Law Community Staff

LexisNexis Overview:  Where foreign shareholders alleged that respondents violated § 10(b) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC Rule 10b-5 regarding securities traded on foreign exchanges, dismissal was warranted because § 10(b) applied only to transactions in securities listed on domestic exchanges and domestic transactions in other securities. 

Judges: SCALIA, J., delivered the opinion of the Court, in which ROBERTS, C. J., and KENNEDY, THOMAS, and ALITO, JJ., joined. BREYER, J., filed an opinion concurring in part and concurring in the judgment. STEVENS, J., filed an opinion concurring in the judgment, in which GINSBURG, J., joined. SOTOMAYOR, J., took no part in the consideration or decision of the case.
