OPINION

LONGOBARDI, Chief Judge.

This is a securities action in which the question before the Court is whether the Plaintiffs, Sandler Associates, L.P., Daniel R. McCarthy and all other similarly situated plaintiffs ("Plaintiffs" or the "Sandler Plaintiffs"), are barred by the doctrine of release from prosecuting the instant action by virtue of a class action settlement approved by the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware.
