The would-be class includes advisory clients from 2008 through that paid management fees and had assets in the defendants&#8217; proprietary funds. <\/p>\n<p>The defendants sought to have the case dismissed, contending that the claims alleging fraud related to the buying and selling of securities are precluded by SLUSA. The district court concurred, with Judge John Darrah noting that although the complaint presented state law claims involving breaches of fiduciary duty and contract, the allegations&#8217; substance describes a fraudulent scam to sell securities. <\/p>\n<div class=\"read_more_link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.investorlawyers.com\/blog\/securities-headlines-court-say\/\"  title=\"Continue Reading Securities Headlines: Court Says SLUSA Precludes JPMorgan Mutual Fund Practices, Provident Royalties Ex-Executives to Pay $2.3M, &#038;
