Com Dev Fund Fees at Missouri Restaurants

July 2018: A state judge preliminarily approved a settlement agreement in which class members with proof of the amount of the Com Dev Fund fee that they were charged may receive a full refund of the additional fee while class members without proof of the amount of the Com Dev Fund fee may receive a percentage of their total bill in a cash award. A final fairness hearing is scheduled for December 14, 2018.

February 2014: A class-action lawsuit was filed alleging that restaurants operated by Fogle Enterprises – including Great American Steak and Chicken House, Whipper Snapper, and The Burger Shack – fail to disclose that a fee called the “Com Dev Fund” is automatically added to the advertised prices for food and service.
