Monetizing Minors: Eric Befumo (aka Big Justice)
Brand partnerships worthy of a big “doom!”
In April 2016, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Caskers, LLC (a company offering subscriptions for alcohol deliveries) for, among other things, allegedly failing to adequately disclose the terms of its automatic renewal and continuous service offers resulting in consumers getting charged without their consent. Later that same month, the lawsuit was voluntarily dismissed When a complaint is dismissed without prejudice, an amended version of the complaint can be refiled.. The reasons for the dismissal have not been disclosed. (Lopez et al v. Caskers, LLC and Does 1-10, Case No. 16-cv-837, S. D. CA.)
