LOS ANGELES, May 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Lundin Law PC , a shareholder rights firm, announces a class action lawsuit against Citizens, Inc. ("Citizens" or the "Company") (NYSE: CIA) concerning possible violations of federal securities laws between March 11, 2015 and March 8, 2017 inclusive (the "Class Period").

No class has been certified in the above action. Until a class is certified, you are not considered represented by an attorney. You may also choose to do nothing and be an absent class member.

The Complaint states that throughout the Class Period, the Company violated federal securities laws. On March 8, 2017, SeekingAlpha released an article claiming that some premiums paid by policyholders are sent to Citizens' transfer agent with the intention of rendering market purchases of Citizens stock – artificially inflating the Company's stock price. Upon release of this news, Citizens' stock price decreased materially, which harmed investors according to the Complaint.

Lundin Law PC was founded by Brian Lundin, a securities litigator based in Los Angeles dedicated to upholding shareholders' rights.

This press release may be considered Attorney Advertising in certain jurisdictions under the applicable law and ethical rules.
