I believe it states a cause of action sufficient to get past a judge. One does not have to prove the allegations withing the complaint. That is what the trial is for. If at the end of the Plaintiffs' case, there is insufficient evidence to prove the case to a jury, the judge can direct the verdict. I think it may go to a jury.
No second level law student wrote this.

Ah, more evidence that the American educational system fails its students. A lawsuit doesn't result in prison. It is a civil proceeding for money. And only a Paulbot who can't read would think this lawsuit has anything even remotely to do with the Rethuglican caucuses.

It is a real complaint that has been filed. It looks like it was written by a first or second year law student. Most of it is conspiratorial in nature, and the work is really sloppy. While I agree the big banks have screwed us all over, especially with mortgage backed securities, credit default swaps, and other derivatives. This particular lawsuit does not stand a snow ball's chance in hell. Nice find OP, but Obama ain't involved, and the suit most likely will never make it past a judge, really crappy legal work.

From the source,it also says:
"The bank crisis represents the height of corruption and brazen behavior where our historically trusted financial institutions have no qualms about breaking the law, because they have the Administration behind them. Banks do well enough when they operate lawfully without needing to be permitted to operate as criminal enterprises that steal money from United States citizens."
Pretty sad,isn't it? It's going to take a whole lot more than awareness to change the system though.

but if these lawyers can prove it to the Supreme Court, then that's another thing entirely. All those people clamoring for proof will hopefully shut up when these guys dig up actual evidence to support what we all instinctively know to be true.
