Monroe County Employees' Retirement System v. Carlson, C.A. 4587-CC (June 7, 2010)
Because "self dealing" sounds so bad, sometimes a plaintiff thinks that all she needs to do is say those words in a complaint to state a claim. Not so. As this decision points out, self dealing may still be fair if the price is right. Hence, to state a claim a complaint must state facts that show the deal was not fair.
