Bernstein Liebhard LLP Announces Investigation of Acquisition of ExpressJet Holdings, Inc. by SkyWest, Inc.

Bernstein Liebhard LLP is investigating whether the Board of Directors of ExpressJet Holdings, Inc. (“ExpressJet” or the “Company”) (NYSE: XJT) breached its fiduciary duty to its shareholders in agreeing to sell ExpressJet to SkyWest, Inc. (“SkyWest”) (NASDAQ: SKYW).
