FTC Takes TruHeight’s Growth Claims Down a Few Pegs
Supplement maker agrees to pay $750K to settle deceptive health claims lawsuit.
March 2014: A federal judge granted final approval of a settlement agreement resolving this action.
December 2013: A federal judge preliminarily approved a settlement of a class-action lawsuit filed against several Philadelphia-based sports and entertainment companies. The complaint, which was originally filed in 2012, alleges that the companies deceptively marketed the 2011-2012 Philadelphia Flyers Full Season Ticket Package because it only included tickets to 43 of the season’s 44 games (the package did not include a ticket to the January 2, 2012 “Winter Classic” game between the Flyers and the New York Rangers). According to the settlement terms, class members may receive a voucher for each seat purchased. Class members may choose between a $75 “black voucher” for a “fan experience” or a $45 “orange voucher” for food and drink at an event at the Wells Fargo Center. A final fairness hearing will be held on March 24, 2014. (Phillips et al v. Comcast Spectacor, L.P.; Philadelphia Flyers, L.P., Philadelphia Flyers, L.L.C., Global Spectrum, LP, NHL Enterprises, L.P., John and Jane Does 1-10, ABC Co., Corp., LLC, LLP, LP 1-10, Case No. 12-cv-03606, D. NJ.).
