The lawsuit had alleged that defendants failed to disclose certain risks related to Windstream Holdings, Inc.’s lawsuit with Aurelius Capital Management and Windstream’s subsequent bankruptcy. The court rejected all such claims noting that Uniti’s public disclosures of these matters were sufficient and that SLF failed to show that defendants “conspired to hide risks and purposefully mislead investors.”
