Defendant.

On February 20, the Court dismissed some claims and gave Plaintiffs leave

20

to file a second amended complaint (“SAC”) that included only claims against

21

Standard Chartered Bank International (Americas) Ltd. (“SCBI”). The SAC was to

have been filed within 14 calendar days.

24

Plaintiffs have now filed their SAC, naming only SCBI as a Defendant. The
caption to be used from now on should name only SCBI as a Defendant.

25

The amended complaint was filed late and does not fully comply with the

26

Court’s order. Although StanChart was omitted as a Defendant, the SAC does not

27

fully comply with the Court’s order. For example, it still seeks damages against

28

StanChart based on StanChart’s alleged breach of duty. The Court has not

thoroughly reviewed the entire SAC, which is 82 pages long, so there may be other

defects.

3

The second amended complaint is ORDERED STRICKEN and the Clerk

4

shall remove it from the docket. Within ten calendar days of the date this order

5

is issued, Plaintiffs may amend and refile their SAC. They should take care that it

complies fully with the Court’s order.
