Heading: Procedural History Leading to the Proposed Second Amended Complaint

Text: 18 On December 30, 1998, shortly after receiving the letters from Kasperbauer (but before the PBGC took over the Plan on September 30, 1999), Burstein filed the initial complaint in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The bankruptcy court for the Western District of Pennsylvania stayed the case in April 1999 at the request of AHERF's bankruptcy trustee. In July 2000, the bankruptcy court lifted the stay. Burstein filed the First Amended Complaint on August 10, 2000, and the defendants moved to dismiss. In addition to opposing the motion to dismiss, Burstein sought leave to file a proposed Second Amended Complaint.
