SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Brower Piven Announces Class Action Lawsuit in Connection With the Sale of CareFusion Corporation -- CFN

STEVENSON, Md., Oct. 22, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the Delaware Court of Chancery on behalf of all common stockholders of CareFusion Corporation ("CareFusion" or the "Company") CFN opposing the proposed acquisition of CareFusion by Becton, Dickinson and Company ("BD").

The complaint arises out of the October 5, 2014 announcement that CareFusion had entered into a definitive merger agreement with BD, pursuant to which CareFusion shareholders will receive $49.00 in cash and 0.0777 of a share of BD for each share of CareFusion common stock they own.

The complaint seeks relief on behalf of the named plaintiff and all other similarly situated shareholders of CareFusion and asserts whether the Company's Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties by failing to maximize shareholder value and/or protect the interests of CareFusion shareholders.
