The Law Firm of James A. Dunlap Jr. & Associates LLC Files Arbitration Claims Against Morgan Keegan for Losses Sustained in Morgan Keegan Bond Funds -- MKHIX, MKIBX, RHY


(GlobeNewswire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) ATLANTA, Sept. 18, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Law Firm of James A. Dunlap Jr. & Associates LLC (http://www.jamesdunlaplaw.com) announced that it filed an arbitration claim against Morgan Keegan & Company, Inc., with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority's ("FINRA") Office of Dispute Resolution. The claims were filed for losses sustained in the Regions Morgan Keegan Bond Funds (Nasdaq:MKHIX) (Nasdaq:MKIBX) (Nasdaq:RHY).



According to the Statements of Claim, the Claimants sustained losses in the Morgan Keegan Funds caused by Morgan Keegan's false and misleading statements about the Fund's risk tolerance, asset allocation, lack of diversification, and lack of suitability for the claimants. The Claims also allege that Morgan Keegan violated Rule 10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as well as applicable state securities laws.

James A. Dunlap Jr. & Associates LLC urges investors to consider filing an individual arbitration claim versus participating in a class action lawsuit. Investors who participate in class actions often recover only a small fraction of their claim, whereas those pursuing an arbitration claim may recover substantially more. Further, unlike a class action, an arbitration claim allows you to: (1) choose your own lawyer; (2) present the unique facts of your case to an arbitration panel; (3) control the decision whether to settle your case and for how much; and (4) secure a result within approximately twelve months, as opposed to potentially years with a class action.
