Class action suit in "Donovan" case conclusively dismissed

The US Supreme Court has decided not to grant plaintiffs' request to review the lower courts' rulings in the "Donovan" suit. The lower courts' rulings dismissing the class action suit in this case therefore still stand, and the case has thereby been conclusively decided in favour of Skandia. Information on the “Donovan” suit has been provided previously, including in press releases on 1 August 2003, 8 September 2003 and 19 May 2004.
