A shareholder lawsuit filed by the New York City Employees' Retirement System against Apple for issuing backdated stock options to executives has been dismissed by a California judge. On what grounds? It's pretty difficult to claim injury when Apple's stock price has soared making the retirement fund more money. The judge is permitting NYCERS a chance to refile if they can show their organization actually incurred damages more severe than a papercut from opening those fat brokerage-account statements.
