The saga of former Children's Place (NASDAQ: PLCE) CEO Ezra Dabah's battle to acquire the company just keeps getting weirder.

Dabah, who "resigned at the request of the board of directors" (file under: How many words can we use to say "fired") back in September over violations of the company's code of ethics, said in an in amended 13-D filing yesterday:
On February 19, 2008, the Company announced that its 2008 annual meeting of stockholders is scheduled to take place on June 27, 2008. An annual meeting of stockholders has not been held by the Company since June 22, 2006, a period of over 18 months.
