Shareholders of Southwest Airlines have filed a lawsuit against the company accusing the carrier of failing to publicly disclose serious shortcomings in its outdated flight scheduling software technology, which prompted thousands of flight cancellations in December.

The proposed class action lawsuit (pdf) was filed by the Rosen Law Firm on behalf of the shareholders, led by Arthur Teroganesian, in the Southern District of Texas on Jan. 12.
