NEW YORK, Jan. 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Notice is hereby given that Monteverde & Associates PC has filed a class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for Western District of Texas, case no. 3:17-cv-00002, on behalf of shareholders of Western Refining, Inc. ("Western " or the "Company")WNR who held Western securities and have been harmed by Western and its board of directors' (the "Board") alleged violations of Sections 14(a), and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") in connection with the sale of the Company to Tesoro Corporation ("Tesoro").
