Lawsuits allege foods and beverages aren’t as healthy as you might think.
In November 2014, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Walmart for allegedly falsely advertising cell phone insurance plans. Among other things, plaintiffs claim that the store advertised and sold insurance plans to consumers who purchased cell phones that were too expensive to be covered by the plan. (Balzer et al v. Wal-Mart Stores Inc., Case No. BC563305, Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles).
