(“Micron” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: MU) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of those who purchased or acquired the securities of Micron between June 22, 2018 and November 19, 2018, inclusive (the “Class Period”), seeking to recover damages caused by Defendants’ violations of the federal securities laws and to pursue remedies under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder.
