FTC alleges company pressures consumers into overpaying for its tax filing software.
In March 2014, the parties agreed to dismiss a lawsuit against Nestlé USA, Inc. The complaint – which was filed in February 2014 – alleged that the company misbrands several varieties of instant coffees – including Nescafe Decaf Taster’s Choice Decaf House Blend and Nescafe Decaf Clasico Decaf Dark Roast — as decaffeinated when they actually contain almost as much caffeine as soda. The lawsuit was dismissed without prejudice, meaning that the plaintiffs can refile. We could not determine the reason(s) the parties agreed to dismiss the lawsuit. (Estrada et al v. Nestlé USA, Inc., et al, Case No. 14-cv-00989, C. D. CA.).
