Discounts at Kohl’s

August 2016: After the court granted summary judgment as to claims for monetary relief and denied a motion for class certification, the named plaintiff determined that she had no further remedies to pursue. The action was voluntarily dismissed When a complaint is dismissed with prejudice, it cannot be refiled.. Later that same month, the named plaintiff filed a Notice of Appeal regarding several of the district court’s orders because the collective effect of the orders denied her of the relief she sought. (Chowning v. Kohl’s Department Stores, Inc. et al, Case No. 16-56272, 9th Cir.)

November 2015: This action was transferred to another California Court. (Case No. 15-cv-8673, C. D. CA.)

July 2015: A false advertising class-action lawsuit was filed against Kohl’s Department Stores for allegedly misleadingly advertising discounts by comparing a sale price to a false “original” price. According to the plaintiffs, the advertised “original” prices do not represent a price that the product was previously offered for sale at Kohl’s or the prevailing market price within the three months immediately before the advertisement, as required by California law. (Chowning et al v. Kohl’s Department Stores, Inc., Kohl’s Corporation, and Does 1-20, Case No. 15-cv-1624, S. D. CA.)
