In class-action, securities-fraud case, denial of defendants' motion to dismiss is reversed as the case was time-barred by both the former statute of limitations and the Public Company Accounting Reform and Investor Protection Act of 2002, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act statute of limitations, when it was filed.
