• Rael et al v. Coach, Inc.

February 2016: A class-action lawsuit was filed against Coach for allegedly misrepresenting the existence, nature, and amount of price discounts on manufactured-for-outlet products by misleadingly comparing its outlet price to a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MFSRP) in order to make consumers believe they are getting a significant discount. According the complaint, these items are only sold at outlet stores and are never sold at the suggested retail prices. (Marino et al v. Coach, Inc., Case No. 16-cv-1122, S.D.N.Y.)
