COSTA MESA, CA--(Marketwire - September 18, 2009) - CNS Response, Inc. (OTCBB: [ CNSO ]) (the "Company" or "CNS") is issuing this press release to announce that it has filed a complaint in the Delaware Chancery Court against its director and former CEO Leonard J. Brandt for repeated violations of his fiduciary duty of loyalty to CNS and its stockholders. "We are disappointed that Len has repeatedly put his personal interests ahead of the interests of CNS and its shareholders," CNS Response CEO George Carpenter commented. "This isn't simply a disagreement over financing tactics or business strategy for the Company. Recent revelations in Len's securities filings show that CNS has been damaged by Len's failure to uphold his fiduciary obligations to all shareholders."

The complaint was filed under seal; however, a redacted copy (confidential information removed) will be available on the CNS Response website shortly.
