Class Action Lawsuit Filed Against Quantum Computing Inc.: A Detailed Look
In a significant development, Pomerantz LLP, a renowned law firm, has announced the filing of a class action lawsuit against Quantum Computing Inc. (QCI) and certain of its top officials. The lawsuit, which was filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, docket number 25-cv-01457, alleges that the Company and its officers violated federal securities laws during the Class Period, which spans from March 30, 2020, to January 15, 2025.
The Class Action: An Overview
The class action is brought on behalf of all persons and entities other than the Defendants who purchased or otherwise acquired QCI securities during the Class Period.
