The case filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York is a complaint allegedly violation of Federal Securities Laws during the IPO pricing of Facebook’s FP stock (NASDAQ: FB).

In a news statement, the plaintiffs’ attorneys claim that they are seeking “to recover damages on behalf of all purchasers of Facebook common stock pursuant and/or traceable to the Company’s IPO”. The lawsuit claims that Facebook and Morgan Stanley “failed to disclose that because Facebook was experiencing a pronounced reduction in revenue growth due to an increase of users of its Facebook app or website through mobile devices rather than traditional PCs, at the time of the IPO the Company had told the lead underwriters to reduce their 2012 performance estimates for Facebook.”

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Mark Zuckerberg’s new $7 million mansion (photos below) near Facebook headquarters is turning Palo Alto heads today. Mark Zuckerberg purchased a $7 million mansion in recent weeks in an affluent section of town boasting well manicured lawns, reports local news. Today, real estate and technology news is discussing the home for a man the Winklevoss twins once called “the poorest rich person I’ve ever seen in my life.”

Zuckerberg has moved twice in one year. In January he was in a rented home. Within days, one website posted his street address. Days later, Zuckerberg had an uninvited guest and need to get a restraining order.

Today San Jose’s Mercury News published details about the house, but not the address. But the paper did publish unique property details that could lead any real estate news site to conclude the listing. Within hours, two websites did exactly that.

The Mercury News said the home boasts at least five thousand square feet, five bedrooms, five full baths. But the unique discerning features included a music alcove, a saltwater pool, a glass in sunroom, and an approximate $7 million listing price.

The paper said “This newspaper is not printing the address because of concerns for the privacy of the sellers, who still live there, and Zuckerberg”.

Within hours, two real estate websites re-published MLS real estate photos of the believed home. Ironically, the two websites disagreed about the listing. But one listing, boasting the salt water pool in the foreground, is believed the correct property. It was listed for $7 million, boasts the correct number of baths and bedrooms and square footage.

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – The Winklevoss twins have appealed, again, their Facebook case. The Winklevoss twins appeal follows a previous decision before the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in which the twins were unsuccessful. Earlier this month, the twins were given a ruling from a three judge panel for the 9th Circuit. Now the twins have filed an appeal to have their case reheard by a full panel of judges for the 9th Circuit.

The case stems from a 2007 settlement agreement concerning the twins’ involvement with classmate Mark Zuckerberg. In 2003, they hired Zuckerberg to help them with their social networking site UConnect. In 2007, the twins and Zuckerberg, fully lawyered up, sat down and began negotiations for the sale of UConnect to Zuckerberg / Facebook. Ultimately, the twins agreed, during mediation, to get $20 million in cash and $45 million in stock.

The settlement gave them 1,253,326 shares of Facebook stocks valued at $35 per share.

The twins’ legal dispute claims that during the mediation Facebook allegedly committed securities by allegedly failing to disclose information about Facebook’s stock price. The twins claim that, had that information been disclosed, they would have received five million, not 1.2 million, shares.

“At some point, litigation must come to an end. That point has now been reached” wrote Chief Judge Alex Kosinski for the Court earlier this April. The twins are reportedly now represented by Jerome Falk of Howard Rice Nemerovski Canady Falk & Rabkin. Facebook is represented by E. Joshua Rosenkranz of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe.

The twins’ pleading today reads that the “the opinion’s implication that Appellants should take the now more-valuable stock and stop complaining about Facebook’s blatant violation of Rule 10b-5 inappropriately minimizes federal securities laws that command honest dealing and full disclosure in the sale or exchange of securities.”

The twins’ appeal adds that whether they “would be better off financially keeping the proceeds of the settlement rather than rescinding and proceeding with their lawsuit against Facebook is a personal judgment for them — not an appellate court — to make.”
