Walmart’s Advertised Price Matching

In April 2014, the parties in a class-action lawsuit against Walmart agreed to dismiss the complaint. The complaint, which was originally filed in 2013, alleged that Walmart’s advertisements falsely represented that the store would match the advertised prices of its competitors when, according to the plaintiffs, Walmart refused to match these prices. The lawsuit was dismissed When a complaint is dismissed with prejudice, it cannot be refiled.. We were unable to determine why the parties agreed to dismiss the lawsuit. (Wasilewski et al v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., John Does 1-5, and ABC Corps 1-5, Case No. 14-cv-00871, D. NJ.).
