Charles RISDALL, et al., Respondents, v. BROWN-WILBERT, INC., et al., Defendants, Christopher C. Brown, et al., Appellants.

Court of Appeals of Minnesota.

July 3, 2007.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Scott D. Hillstrom, Guardian Law Group, LLC, Minneapolis, MN; and Peter A. Koller, Moss & Barnett, P.A., Minneapolis, MN, for respondents.

Kay Nord Hunt, Lommen, Abdo, Cole, King & Stageberg, P.A., Minneapolis, MN; and George E. Antrim, III, Minneapolis, MN, for appellants.

Considered and decided by RANDALL, Presiding Judge; KLAPHAKE, Judge; and WILLIS, Judge.


OPINION

WILLIS, Judge.

Appellants challenge the district court's grant of summary judgment to respondents on their claim that appellant corporation sold unregistered securities in violation of Minnesota securities law, entitling respondents to rescind their purchases of appellant's stock. Because we conclude that respondents' state-law claims are preempted by federal law, we reverse and remand.
