QRCP Quest Resource (MM)

The law firm Cohen, Milstein, Hausfeld & Toll, P.L.L.C. announces that a securities class action has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma on behalf of a class (the �Class�) consisting of all persons who purchased the common units of Quest Energy Partners L.P. (�Quest Energy� or the �Company�) (NasdaqGM:QELP) pursuant and/or traceable to the Company�s Registration Statement and Prospectus issued in connection with the Company�s Initial Public Offering (the �IPO�) on November 7, 2007 through August 25, 2008, and on behalf all persons who purchased the securities of Quest Resource Corporation (�Quest Resource� or the �Company�)(NasdaqGM:QRCP) between May 2, 2005 through August 25, 2008 (the �Class Period�). The Complaint charges Quest Energy and its parent company, Quest Resource, among others, with violations of federal securities laws. Quest Resource is engaged in the exploration, development, production and transportation of natural gas. Quest Energy is the gas and oil production operation arm of Quest Resource and engages in the acquisition, exploitation and development of oil and natural gas properties. The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period defendants knew or recklessly disregarded that their public statements concerning Quest Resource�s and Quest Energy�s business and operations were materially false and misleading. Specifically, the Complaint alleges that defendants failed to disclose that related party transactions, which existed at the time of Quest Energy�s IPO, between Quest Energy and Rockport Energy -- an entity controlled by Quest Energy�s chief executive officer, violated Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and SEC regulations. These failures by defendants caused Quest Resource�s disclosures on related party transactions to be materially incomplete and false. On August 25, 2008, the Company announced, among other things, the resignation of its CEO, Jerry Cash, the formation of a Joint Special Committee to conduct an investigation of improper transfers of Company funds by Cash to Rockport Energy, and an inquiry launched by the Oklahoma Department of Securities in connection with the improper transfers. This announcement shocked the market and caused the Company�s stock to fall $2.05 per share, or nearly 30%, to $4.88 per share on August 25, 2008. The lawsuit seeks to recover damages on behalf of Class members. If you are a member of the Class, you may, no later than November 4, 2008, request that the Court appoint you as Lead Plaintiff of the Class. Any member of the purported Class may move the Court to serve as Lead Plaintiff through counsel of their choice or may choose to remain an absent Class member.
