SECURITY AMERICAS CORPORATION, INC. (f/k/a GE Interlogix Inc.);
W.L. GORE & ASSOCIATES INC.; Case No. 2:23-cv-06502-RMG (D.S.C.,
Dec. 13, 2023), is brought for damages stemming from personal
injury resulting from exposure to aqueous film-forming foams
("AFFF") and firefighter turnout gear ("TOG") containing the toxic
chemicals collectively known as per and polyfluoroalkyl substances
("PFAS"). PFAS includes, but is not limited to, perfluorooctanoic
acid ("PFOA") and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid ("PFOS") and
related chemicals including those that degrade to PFOA and/or
PFOS.

AFFF is a specialized substance designed to extinguish
petroleum-based fires. It has been used for decades by military and
civilian firefighters to extinguish fires in training and in
response to Class B fires. TOG is personal protective equipment
designed for heat and moisture resistance in order to protect
firefighters in hazardous situations. Most turnout gear is made up
of a thermal liner, moisture barrier, and an outer layer. The inner
layers contain PFAS, and the outer layer is often treated with
additional PFAS.

The Defendants collectively designed, marketed, developed,
manufactured, distributed, released, trained users, produced
instructional materials, promoted, sold, and/or otherwise released
into the stream of commerce AFFF and or TOG with knowledge that it
contained highly toxic and bio persistent PFAS, which would expose
end users of the product to the risks associated with PFAS.
Further, defendants designed, marketed, developed, manufactured,
distributed, released, trained users, produced instructional
materials, promoted, sold and/or otherwise handled and/or used
underlying chemicals and/or products added to AFFF or TOG which
contained PFAS for use in firefighting.

PFAS binds to proteins in the blood of humans exposed to it where
it remains and persists over extended periods of time. Due to their
unique chemical structure, PFAS accumulates in the blood and body
of exposed individuals. PFAS are highly toxic and carcinogenic
chemicals. Defendants knew, or should have known, that PFAS remains
in the human body while contemporaneously presenting significant
health risks to humans.

The Defendants' PFAS-containing AFFF or TOG products were used by
Plaintiff in their intended manner, without significant change in
the products' condition. Plaintiff was unaware of the dangerous
properties of the Defendants' AFFF or TOG products and relied on
the Defendants' instructions as to the proper handling of the
products. Plaintiff's consumption, inhalation and/or dermal
absorption of PFAS from Defendant's AFFF or TOG products caused
Plaintiff to develop the serious medical conditions and
complications alleged herein.

Through this action, Plaintiff seeks to recover compensatory and
punitive damages arising out of the permanent and significant
damages sustained as a direct result of exposure to Defendants'
AFFF or TOG products at several Fire Departments and or Military
bases during Plaintiff's training and firefighting activities.
Plaintiff further seeks injunctive, equitable, and declaratory
relief arising from the same, says the complaint.

The Plaintiff was regularly exposed to AFFF and TOG in training and
to extinguish fires during their military/civilian firefighting
career and was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer as a direct result of
exposure to Defendants' products.

The Defendants are designers, marketers, developers, manufacturers,
distributors, releasers, instructors, promotors, and sellers of
PFAS containing AFFF products or underlying PFAS containing
chemicals used in AFFF production.[BN]

manufactured, distributed, released, trained users, produced
instructional materials, promoted, sold and/or otherwise handled

which contained PFAS for use in firefighting.

PFAS binds to proteins in the blood of humans exposed to the

injunctive, equitable, and declaratory relief arising from the
same, says the complaint.

The Plaintiff regularly used, and was thereby directly exposed to,
AFFF in training and to extinguish fires during his working career
as a military and/or civilian firefighter and was diagnosed with
thyroid disease as a result of exposure to Defendants' AFFF
products.

The Defendants are designers, marketers, developers, manufacturers,

contained PFAS for use in firefighting.

PFAS binds to proteins in the blood of humans exposed to it where
it remains and persists over extended periods of time. Due to their
unique chemical structure, PFAS accumulates in the blood and body
of exposed individuals. PFAS are highly toxic and carcinogenic
chemicals. Defendants knew, or should have known, that PFAS remains
in the human body while contemporaneously presenting significant
health risks to humans.

The Defendants' PFAS-containing AFFF or TOG products were used by
Plaintiff in their intended manner, without significant change in
the products' condition. Plaintiff was unaware of the dangerous
properties of the Defendants' AFFF or TOG products and relied on
the Defendants' instructions as to the proper handling of the
products. Plaintiff's consumption, inhalation and/or dermal
absorption of PFAS from Defendant's AFFF or TOG products caused
Plaintiff to develop the serious medical conditions and
complications alleged herein.

Through this action, Plaintiff seeks to recover compensatory and
punitive damages arising out of the permanent and significant
damages sustained as a direct result of exposure to Defendants'
AFFF or TOG products at several Fire Departments and or Military
bases during Plaintiff's training and firefighting activities.
Plaintiff further seeks injunctive, equitable, and declaratory
relief arising from the same, says the complaint.

The Plaintiff was regularly exposed to AFFF and TOG in training and
to extinguish fires during their military/civilian firefighting
career and was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer as a direct result of
exposure to Defendants' products.

The Defendants are designers, marketers, developers, manufacturers,
distributors, releasers, instructors, promotors, and sellers of
PFAS containing AFFF products or underlying PFAS containing
chemicals used in AFFF production.[BN]

-----------------------------------------------------------
If, from February 1, 2008 through November 30, 2015, you paid
interest on a VRDO that had rate resets on a daily or weekly basis,
your rights may be affected

JND Legal Administration reports that a class action suit has been
filed against Bank of America, Barclays, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs,
JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, the Royal Bank of Canada, and Wells
Fargo ("Defendants") for allegedly conspiring to fix interest rates
on Variable Rate Demand Obligations ("VRDOs") for VRDOs they
remarketed during the period from February 1, 2008 through November
30, 2015. Plaintiffs have asserted claims for violation of federal
antitrust law and various states' contract laws. The class action
lawsuit is known as City of Philadelphia et al. v. Bank of America
Corporation et al, Case No. 19-cv-1608, and it is in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The
Court has allowed this lawsuit to be a class action on behalf of a

You are a potential class member if you directly paid the interest
expenses on a VRDO that had interest rates reset on a weekly or
daily basis pursuant to a remarketing agreement with any Defendant
at any point from February 1, 2008 through November 30, 2015. You
are a potential sub-class member if, in addition to meeting the

30-2023-01365108-CU-OE-CXC (Filed Nov. 30, 2023) was removed from

BROOKDALE EMPLOYEE: Fails to Pay Minimum & OT Wages, Torossian Says
-------------------------------------------------------------------
ARTIN TOROSSIAN v. BROOKDALE EMPLOYEE SERVICES, LLC; and DOES 1 to
25, inclusive, Case No. 24STOVOQ323 (Cal. Super., Jan. 5, 2024)
alleges that the Defendants failed to pay the Plaintiff and other
similarly situated aggrieved employees for all hours worked,
including minimum wages and overtime wages.

The Plaintiff and others would consistently work through meal
breaks even though they were clocked out and "off the clock."
Moreover, due to the heavy workload, the Plaintiff would have to
perform tasks while "off the clock," including inventory, ordering
from vendors, menu design/creation, and due to being contacted
after hours, the suit contends.

In addition, Brookdale had a company policy wherein they would
disproportionately round down the number of hours worked by the
Plaintiff and other aggrieved employees, resulting in "time
shaving" and further resulting in aggrieved employees not being
paid for all hours worked. Accordingly, the Plaintiff's and other
aggrieved employees' actual work hours entitled them to overtime
compensation, however, Brookdale did not compensate its hourly,
non-exempt employees with the correct amount of overtime. Brookdale
also failed to include bonuses/incentive payments in calculating
the Plaintiff's and other employees' regular rate of pay for use in
deciphering the correct overtime rate of pay. In addition, the
Plaintiff and others were not compensated for the time it takes to
clock in and clock out of the workplace despite being under the
control of the employer, says the suit.

The Plaintiff started working for Brookdale on June 2023 as a chef
and Dining Services Manager. The Plaintiff's employment ended on
October 26, 2023. During his tenure, the Plaintiff was classified
as an hourly, non-exempt employee.[BN]

------------------------------------------------------------
MICHELLE BIRNIE; CHAROLET WADEINE FAIL; and LAUREN WILKINSON,

Plaintiffs v. CITRIX SYSTEMS, INC., Defendant, Case No.
0:24-cv-60070-AMC (S.D. Fla., Jan. 10, 2024) is a class action
against the Defendant on behalf of themselves and all others

COMPLETE SOLARIA: Edelman Sues Over Undisclosed Price Adjustments
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Eliezer Edelman, on behalf of himself and all others similarly
situated v. COMPLETE SOLARIA, INC. F/K/A FREEDOM ACQUISITION I
CORP, Case NO. 650189/2024 (N.Y. Sup. Ct., Jan. 12, 2024), is
brought against the Defendant for failure to issue a notice of
Warrant Price adjustments.

In March 2021, Freedom Acquisition I. Corp. ("FACT") completed its
initial public offering, selling 34.5 million units at $10 per
unit. Each "Unit" consisted of one Class A ordinary share and
one-fourth of one redeemable warrant. The whole warrants could be
exercised at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to
certain adjustments, as more fully set forth in the Warrant
Agreement dated February 25, 2021.

FACT completed its initial business combination on July 18, 2023 by
taking Complete Solar Holding Corporation and The Solaria
Corporation public, and the surviving public entity was renamed
"Complete Solaria Inc." (the "Business Combination"). Each issued
and outstanding whole warrant to purchase one FACT Class A ordinary
share automatically represented the right to purchase one share of
Complete Solaria's common stock at a Warrant Price of $11.50 per
share, subject to the terms and conditions of the Warrant
Agreement.

A majority of the funds used to effectuate this Business
Combination was derived from the issuance of stock to a group of
investors at an effective issue price less than $9.20 per share.
Moreover, the volume weighted average trading price of the common
stock in the 20-day period following the Business Combination was
$5.46, or less than $9.20 per share. As a result, the Warrant
Agreement requires Defendant to adjust the Warrant Price to
$6.279.

The Defendant has not issued notice of any adjustments to the
Warrant Price or otherwise acknowledged that such adjustments will
be made. As a result, Plaintiff and the Class have been damaged by
$5.221 per warrant (to the extent they have exercised their
warrants) and seekd eclaratory relief that the Warrant Price must
be adjusted to $6.279, says the complaint.

The Plaintiff is a resident of Israel and currently holds 3,598
warrants that he acquired from FACT in August 2023.

The Defendant is a publicly traded company incorporated in
Delaware.[BN]

ABIGAIL RAMIREZ v. EL TRI MX RESTAURANT & BAR CORP, CARLOS UMALA

(E.D.N.Y., Jan. 11, 2024) is a class action seeking to recover

The Defendants were required to pay and compensate the Plaintiff at

Sunday to Wednesday from 5:00 P.M. until 4:00 A.M., and Friday to
Saturday from 5:00 P.M. until 5:00 A.M. for approximately 70-75
hours per week.

The Defendants only compensated the Plaintiff at a rate of $6.67
per hour and failed to pay the Plaintiff his lawful overtime pay
for that period from August 2020 until December 27, 2023, where he
worked well in excess of 40 hours per workweek, the lawsuit
claims.

The Plaintiff also brings this action under the Wage Theft
Prevention Act for the Defendants' failure to provide written
notice of wage rates in violation of said laws. Accordingly, the
Plaintiff now brings this action on behalf of himself and those
other similarly situated individuals, for federal and state claims
relating to unpaid minimum wages, overtime wages, unpaid
spread-of-hours wages, failure to maintain records pursuant to the
FLSA, 29 USC sections 201 et seq., NYLL section 650 et seq., as
recently amended by the Wage Theft Prevention Act, NYLL section
195(3), as well as those related provisions in Title 12 of the New
York Codes, Rules, and Regulations.

The Plaintiff seeks compensatory damages, liquidated damages,
spread of hours pay, pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, and
attorneys' fees and costs pursuant to the FLSA and NYLL.

Mr. Ramirez was employed by the Defendant from August 2020 until
December 27, 2023, where his primary work duty was as a cook,
delivery, assistant and janitor.

FAMILY DELI: Fails to Pay Guards' Minimum, OT Wages Under FLSA
--------------------------------------------------------------
HENRY ROJAS v. FAMILY DELI 4 INC (DBA FAMILY DELI 4 TREMONT), and
HASSAN KORAIN, individually, Case No. 1:24-cv-00230 (S.D.N.Y., Jan.
11, 2024) is a class action seeking to recover unpaid minimum and
overtime wage compensation pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act
and the New York Labor Law.

Plaintiff Rojas's work schedule was from Monday to Saturday; he
sometimes worked on Sunday. He began work at 7:00 A.M. but and left
at 7:00 PM; he worked approximately 72 hours per week.

The Defendants only compensated the Plaintiff at a rate of $5.33
and $6.67 per hour and failed to pay Plaintiff his lawful overtime
pay for that period from December 28, 2021, until December 29,
2023, where he worked well in excess of 40 hours per workweek, the
Plaintiff says.

The Defendants allegedly maintain a policy and practice of
requiring Plaintiff and other employees to work without providing
the overtime compensation required by federal and state law and
regulations.

The Plaintiff also brings this action under the Wage Theft
Prevention Act for the Defendants' failure to provide written
notice of wage rates in violation of said laws. The Plaintiff
further seeks compensatory damages, liquidated damages, spread of
hours pay, pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, and attorneys'
fees and costs pursuant to the FLSA and NYLL.

The Plaintiff was employed by the Defendant from December 28, 2021,
until December 29, 2023, where his primary work duty was as a
security guard, but also did other chores, such as cleaning,
stocking and shop whatever the store needed.

The Defendant operates restaurant business.[BN]

GOOGLE LLC: Court OK's Class Certification Bid in Rodriguez Suit
----------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as ANIBAL RODRIGUEZ, et al.,
v. GOOGLE LLC, Case No. 3:20-cv-04688-RS (N.D. Cal.), the Hon.
Judge Richard Seeborg entered an order granting motion to certify
class and denying Daubert motion.

The following classes are certified:

  -- Class 1

     "All individuals who, during the period beginning July 1, 2016

     and continuing through the present (the "Class Period"), (a)
had
     their "Web & App Activity" and/or "supplemental Web & App
     Activity" setting turned off and (b) whose activity on a non-
     Google-branded mobile app was still transmitted to Google,
from
     (c) a mobile device running the Android operating system,
because
     of the Firebase Software Development Kit (“SDK”) and/or
Google
     Mobile Ads SDK."

  -- Class 2

     "All individuals who, during the Class Period (a) had their
     "Web & App Activity" and/or "supplemental Web & App Activity"

     setting turned off and (b) whose activity on a
non-Google-branded
     mobile app was still transmitted to Google, from (c) a mobile

     device running a non-Android operating system, because of the

     Firebase SDK and/or Google Mobile Ads SDK."

The parties will appear for a Case Management Conference on
February 1, 2024 and submit a Joint Case Management Statement by
January 25, 2024.’

The Plaintiffs are users of third-party apps to which Google
provides services. The Plaintiffs bring a putative class action
against Defendant Google LLC with three claims: invasion of
privacy, intrusion upon seclusion, and violation of the
Comprehensive Computer Data Access and Fraud Act (CDAFA). Pursuant
to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 23(b)(3) and 23(b)(2), they
seek certification of nationwide classes of all Google users who
had their "Web & App Activity"
("WAA") and/or "supplemental Web & App Activity" ("sWAA") switched
off in their Google privacy settings since July 1, 2016.

Concurrently, Google moves to exclude the opinion by Plaintiffs'
damages expert, Michael J. Lasinski, pursuant to Federal Rule of
Evidence 702 and Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 509
U.S. 579 (1993). Lasinski submitted a report to calculate
class-wide unjust enrichment and actual damages for Plaintiff's two
proposed classes. For the reasons below, Plaintiffs’ motion to
certify class is granted and Google’s Daubert motion is denied.

The case is a putative class action challenging Google's data
practices.

Google is an American multinational technology company focusing on
artificial intelligence, online advertising, search engine
technology, cloud computing, computer software, quantum computing,
e-commerce, and consumer electronics.

The Court preliminarily certifies, for settlement purposes only, a
"Settlement Class" of:

   "All persons who were notified that their personally

   information may have been impacted as a result of the data
incident
   that occurred on Guardian systems between November 27, 2022 and

   January 22, 2023;"

   Excluded from the Settlement Class are Defendants officers and
   directors, as well as (i) all Settlement Class Members who
timely
   and validly request exclusion from the Settlement Class; (u) the

   judges assigned to the Litigation to evaluate the fairness,
   reasonableness, and adequacy of this settlement; and (iii) any
   other Person found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
   guilty under criminal law of perpetrating, aiding or abetting
the
   criminal activity occurrence of the Data Incident or who pleads

   nolo contendere to any such charge. The Settlement Class may
   include as many as 197,270 individuals -- each, a "Settlement
Class
   Member."

For the purposes of the settlement only. The Plaintiffs Mark S.
Holden, Richard Andisio, Edward Marshall, Ann Marie Marshall,
Arthur Christiani, Johmelle Dwyer, Pawel Krzykowski, Mariola
Krzynowek, James Howe, and Cindy A. Pereira are preliminarily
certified as the Class Representatives.

The Court finds that interim co-lead counsel Ben Bamow of Barnow
and Associates, P.C. and Charles E. Schaffer of Levin Sedran &
Berman, LLP are experienced and adequate counsel and are
provisionally designated as Class Counsel under Federal Rule of
Civil Procedure 23(a)(4) Settlement Hearing Date.

HAL'S BEVERAGE: Ozuzu Sues Over Mislabeled Snack Products
---------------------------------------------------------
CHIOMA OZUZU, individually and on behalf of all others similarly
situated, Plaintiff v. HAL'S BEVERAGE LLC, Defendant, Case No.
500922/2024 (N.Y. Sup. Kings Cty., Jan. 10, 2024) alleges that the
Defendant sells in a deceptive manner its Sea Salt & Vinegar Kettle
Cooked Potato Chips promoted as having "No Artificial Flavors,"
with a picture of freshly ground salt and a cup of vinegar next to
cooked potato chips under the Hal's New York brand.

According to the complaint, the labeling in the Product is false
and misleading because despite the representations its taste was
from sea salt and vinegar, and had "No Artificial Flavors," it
contains artificial flavoring ingredients to create, simulate,
resemble and reinforce its vinegar
taste. This is not disclosed on the front label or the fine print
on the back in the ingredient list. While the ingredient list in
fine print on the back indicates the chips include sea salt and
vinegar, they also includes malic acid.

The Product was worth less than what Plaintiff paid, and she would
not have paid as much absent Defendant's false and misleading
statements and omissions, says the suit.

HAL'S BEVERAGE LLC sells beverages, and snack products. [BN]

Case No. 30-2024-01371244-CU-BT-CXC (Cal. Super. Ct., Orange Cty.,

KIN INC: Court Directs Filing of Discovery Plan in Horn Suit
------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as Horn v. KIN, Inc. et al.,
Case No. 1:23-cv-01434-SLD-JEH (C.D. Ill.), the Hon. Judge Jonathan
E. Hawley entered a standing order as follows:

   -- Rule 16 scheduling conference

      The Court will set a Rule 16 scheduling conference
approximately
      30 days after the answer or other responsive pleading is
filed.
      The conference will generally be conducted by telephone.

   -- Discovery plan

      The discovery plan shall be filed with the Court at least
three
      calendar days before the Rule 16 scheduling conference.

   -- Waiver of the Rule 16 scheduling conference

      If the parties agree on all matters contained in the
discovery
      plan, then the parties may waive the Rule 16 scheduling
      conference. To do so, the parties shall indicate in the
      discovery that the parties agree upon all maters contained
      within the discovery plan, and they request that the Rule 16

      scheduling conference be cancelled.

   -- Failure of counsel to attend a scheduled telephone hearing

      For the convenience of counsel, the Court conducts most
hearings
      by telephone when possible. Counsel's failure to appear for a

      telephone hearing will be treated as a failure of counsel to

      appear for an in-person hearing.

   -- Discovery disputes brought to the Court's attention after the

      discovery deadline has already passed

      The parties may not raise a discovery dispute with the Court

      after the relevant discovery deadline has passed; all
discovery
      disputes must be brought to the Court's attention before the

      relevant discovery deadline passes. Any discovery disputes
      raised with the Court after the expiration of the relevant
      discovery deadline shall be deemed waived by the Court, even
if
      the parties agreed to conduct discovery after the relevant
      discovery deadline has passed. If the parties agree to
conduct
      discovery after the expiration of a deadline set by the
Court,
      they must still file a motion requesting that the Court move

      that deadline as agreed by the parties in order to avoid any

      subsequent discovery disputes being deemed waived.

   -- Settlement conferences and mediation

      The parties are encouraged to seek a settlement conference or

      mediation with a magistrate judge. Where parties request a
      settlement conference or mediation in a case referred to
Judge
      Hawley, Judge Hawley will conduct said conference or
mediation.

MUSEUM OF SEX: Ruiz Sues Over Unlawful Service Charge
-----------------------------------------------------
Arling Ruiz, individually and on behalf of all others similarly
situated v. THE MUSEUM OF SEX LLC, Case No. 1:24-cv-00178
(S.D.N.Y., Jan. 9, 2024), is brought as a result of the Defendant
unlawful service charge and to seek relief in this action on behalf
of all other ticket purchasers for Defendant's place of
entertainment, the Museum of Sex NYC, for actual and/or statutory
damages, reasonable attorneys' costs and fees, and injunctive
relief under New York Arts and Cultural Affairs Law.

For over a year, Defendant has been nickel and diming visitors of
its Museum of Sex NYC on its website in violation of the New York
Arts and Cultural Affairs Law. Whenever a consumer selects an
admission ticket on the website https://museumofsex.com/, she is
quoted a fee-less price, only to be ambushed by a $4.00 "service
charge" – which is masked under the ambiguous category "taxes &
fees" – at checkout after clicking through the various screens
required to make a purchase. To make matters worse, a 4-minute
clock for the consumer to complete the transaction begins ticking
down on the final checkout page. Because New York is a busy place,
and because these fees are only flashed after a museum-goer selects
her ticket, and if and only if a museum goer clicks the question
mark icon next to "taxes & fees," Defendant can plausibly put its
consumers on a shot clock and tell them they need to act quick,
because Defendant cannot hold their spot admission time open
forever. This cheap trick has enabled Defendant to swindle
substantial sums of money from its customers, says the complaint.

The Plaintiff purchased two admission tickets to the Museum of Sex
NYC on or about October 6, 2022 through Defendant's website.

The Defendant owns and operates the Museum of Sex NYC.[BN]

O'NEIL DIGITAL: Fails to Pay Minimum & OT Wages, Johnson Alleges
----------------------------------------------------------------
KAYRI JOHNSON v. O'NEIL DIGITAL SOLUTIONS, LLC; TAYLOR NICOLE
PROFESSIONALS, INC.; and DOES 1 to 25, inclusive, Case No.
24STCV00390 (Cal. Super., Jan. 5, 2024) contends that the Defendant
did not compensate the Plaintiff and other similarly situated
aggrieved employees for all hours worked pursuant to California
Labor Code sections 1194, 1197 and 1197.1.

The Plaintiff and others were not paid for all hours worked and
were not paid for time that they worked "off the clock." This is so
because the company had a policy and practice of rounding down
hours worked and "time shaving," the lawsuit asserts.

Moreover, to the extent employees worked through their meal periods
and those meal periods were interrupted, they were not compensated
for that time, which would be akin to a minimum wage violation. Due
to the "off the clock" violations and as a matter of company
policy, the Defendant violated Labor Code section 510 because it
failed to pay the Plaintiff and other similarly situated aggrieved
employees overtime, even though they worked more than 8 hours per
day, 12 hours per day, and/or 40 hours per week throughout their
employment, the lawsuit adds.

In addition, the Defendant did not include bonuses and/or incentive
payments in calculating employees' true regular rate of pay for
purposes of deciphering their correct overtime rate of pay.
Additionally, the incentive and bonus payments were also not
factored into employees' regular rate for purposes of receiving
meal and rest break premiums per the Ferra v. Loews case, alleges
the lawsuit.

The Plaintiff started working for O'Neil Digital in October 2022.
During his employment, the Plaintiff was classified as an hourly,
non-exempt employee. The Plaintiff's employment ended on February
2023.

O'Neil is a printing company offering digital printing

PORTFOLIO RECOVERY: Faces Tipoo Suit Over Telephonic Sale Calls
---------------------------------------------------------------
MOHAMMED A. TIPOO v. PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES, LLC and JOHN
DOES 1-25, Case No. 1:24-cv-00131-BMC (E.D.N.Y., Jan. 5, 2024) is a
class action seeking redress for the Defendant's actions which
violate the Telephone Consumer Protection Act.

On January of 2012, the Defendant began a telephone campaign by
calling the Plaintiff's cellular telephone number. These phone
calls were made several times a day, on a daily basis, with such
frequency as can reasonably be expected to harass.

The calls came from several different phone numbers including
757-506-0177, 731-577-4171, 205-484-0134 and 731-410-3139.

Soon thereafter the Plaintiff answered one of the phone calls and
the Defendant stated that they were looking for Marcy from Far
Rockaway, NY. During the phone call the Plaintiff explicitly told
the Defendant that they had the wrong number and to stop calling
his cellular telephone, the suit says.

The Defendant had ignored the Plaintiff's request and continued to
call Plaintiff's cellular phone numerous times on a daily basis,
the suit adds.

Accordingly, the Defendant has called Plaintiff over 100 times
within the last four (4) years. The telephone calls at issue were
placed by the Defendant using an automated telephone dialing
system.

The Defendant allegedly initiated each of the calls at issue to the
Plaintiff's cellular telephone without the prior express consent of
the Plaintiff. As a direct and proximate result of the Defendants
acts or omissions, the Plaintiff has suffered compensatory,
statutory, and actual damages, says the suit.

The Plaintiff is a natural person and a resident of the Atoria, New
York.

PRIME CEREAL: Fails to Pay Car Wash Attendant's OT Wages Under FLSA
-------------------------------------------------------------------
CORNELIUS SMITH V. PRIME CEREAL, LLC, SERIES ONE OF PRIME CEREAL,
LLC DBA THE LOCAL WASH AND THOMAS KNAPP, Case No. 2:24-cv-00003-JRG
(E.D. Tex., Jan. 5, 2024) is a class action brought by the
Plaintiff, on behalf of himself and similarly situated, alleging
that the Defendants failed to pay overtime wages pursuant to the
Fair Labor Standards Act.

The lawsuit claims that the Defendants misclassified the Plaintiff
as an exempt employee. Accordingly, the Defendants suffered or
permitted the Plaintiff to work more than 40 hours in a work week
but did not pay him overtime wages. Instead, the Defendants paid
Plaintiff an hourly rate with no compensation for hours worked over
40 in each work week.

The Plaintiff was not required to clock in/clock to record his
worktime. The Plaintiff worked 65 hours per week. However, the
Plaintiff was not paid overtime wages at one and one-half times his
regular hourly rate for all hours worked in excess of 40 hours in a
work week, the suit alleges.

The Plaintiff was employed by The Local Wash in Marshall, Texas as
a car wash attendant.[BN]

PROGRESS SOFTWARE: Fails to Prevent Data Breach, Duffy Alleges
--------------------------------------------------------------
MOIRA DUFFY, individually and on behalf of all others similarly
situated, Plaintiff v. PROGRESS SOFTWARE CORPORATION; WELLTOK,
INC., and SUTTER HEALTH, Defendants, Case No. 3:24-cv-00185-LJC
(N.D. Cal., Jan. 10, 2024) is an action lawsuit on behalf of all
persons who entrusted the Defendants with sensitive personal
information that was exposed in a data breach when, on May 30,
2023, an unauthorized third party accessed Welltok's internal
MOVEit Transfer servers, which contained individuals' sensitive
personally identifying information and personal health
information.

According to the complaint, the Defendants failed to properly
secure and safeguard Plaintiff's and the Class's PII that was
stored within the MOVEit servers. Despite purporting to act as a
safe container for sensitive information, Defendants failed to take
precautions designed to keep that information secure.

The Defendants owed and owe a duty to Plaintiff and Class members
to maintain adequate security measures to safeguard the PII with
which they were entrusted with. The Defendants breached their duty
by failing to implement and/or maintain adequate security
practices. As a result of the Defendants' inadequate digital
security and notice process, Plaintiff's and Class members' PII and
PHI was exposed to criminals. Plaintiff and the Class have suffered
and will continue to suffer injuries including financial losses
caused by misuse of PII and PHI; the loss or diminished value of
their PII as a result of the Data Breach; lost time associated with
detecting and preventing identity theft; and theft of personal,
medical, and financial information, says the suit.

QUICK GRAB: Shakur Sues Over Unpaid Minimum, Overtime Wages
-----------------------------------------------------------
Kendall Shakur, on behalf of herself and others similarly situated
v. QUICK GRAB N GO LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Company, and
HASEEB A. KHAN, an individual, jointly and severally, Case No.
6:24-cv-00055 (M.D. Fla., Jan. 9, 2024), is brought pursuant to the
Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (hereinafter "FLSA"), to recover
unpaid minimum wages, unpaid overtime and compensation owed to
Plaintiff.

From December 30, 2022 until December 9, 2023, Plaintiff worked
more than 40 hours per week during many weeks of her employment,
without being paid the federally mandated wage for overtime.
Specifically, Plaintiff was paid only straight time for all hours
worked, even those hours in excess of forty per work week. The
Defendants violated the FLSA by failing to pay Plaintiff for all
overtime hours worked in excess of forty per week at the applicable
time and one-half rate. The Defendants pay all of their hourly wage
employees in the same fashion. There are several other current and
former employees who worked in various positions who were paid only
straight time for overtime hours, and are thus owed the half-time
premium as well, says the complaint.

The Plaintiff was employed as an hourly wage retail clerk by
Defendants from December 30, 2022 until her termination from
employment on December 9, 2023.

The Defendants operates retail gas station/convenience store in
Seminole County, Florida.[BN]

RAH INDUSTRIES: Regalado Suit Seeks to Recover Minimum & OT Wages
-----------------------------------------------------------------
GREGORIO REGALADO, as an individual and on behalf of all others
similarly situated v. R.A.H. INDUSTRIES, INC.; a California
Corporation; and DOES 1 through 100, Case No. 24STCV00839 (Cal.
Super., Jan. 11, 2024) seeks to recover unpaid wages and penalties
under the California Business and Professions Code, and the
Industrial Welfare Commission Wage Order.

The Plaintiff contends that the Defendants utilized a timekeeping
system which resulted in the Plaintiff and other non-exempt
employees not being compensated for all hours actually worked,
whether by rounding, time-shaving, or otherwise.

Specifically, the Defendants rounded the Plaintiff's timekeeping
entries in an uneven manner to a quarter of an hour increment, so
that, over a period of time, the Plaintiff was deprived of all
earned minimum and overtime wages.

Further, the Defendants' meal period policies/practices failed to
provide the Plaintiff and other non-exempt employees with all
legally compliant meal periods because they failed to provide the
Plaintiff and other non-exempt employees with a timely, duty-free,
and uninterrupted 30-minute meal period commencing before the end
of the fifth hour of work, and/or a second 30-minute meal period
for shifts of over 10.0 hours. The Defendants also failed to
provide the Plaintiff and other non-exempt employees with 30
minutes of net rest in an area away from the work station that is
appropriate for rest, which employers are required by the Wage
Order to maintain for their employees during meal and rest periods,
the suit says.

The Plaintiff worked for the Defendants as a non-exempt employee in
the position of "Manual Machine Operator" (or similarly titled
position) from 2012 until May 2022.

RAH Industries manufactures parts and assemblies for use in
spacecraft, commercial and military aircraft, defense and homeland
security systems and a wide variety of commercial

RESTEK CORP: Fails to Protect Personal Info, Retorick Suit Alleges
------------------------------------------------------------------
KYLE RETORICK, on behalf of himself and all others similarly
situated v. RESTEK CORPORATION, Case No. 240101443 (Pa. Com. Pl.,
Philadelphia Cty., Jan. 11, 2024) sues the Defendant for failing to
protect the Class's highly sensitive personal identifiable
information.

From June 1, 2023, through June 9, 2023, the Defendant's computer
system was hacked. Yet, the Defendant waited over until December 5,
2023, before it began notifying the class -- a full 186 days after
the Defendant discovered its Data Breach. Thus, the Defendant kept
the Class in the dark -- thereby depriving the Class of the
opportunity to try and mitigate their injuries in a timely manner,
the suit contends.

Through its Data Breach, the Defendant compromised the Plaintiff's
name, Social Security number, date of birth, driver's license
number, employee identification number, health insurance
information, and financial account information, the suit adds.

The Defendant has allegedly done little to remedy its Data Breach.
True, the Defendant has offered some victims credit monitoring and
identity related services. But such services are wholly
insufficient to compensate the Plaintiff and Class members for the
injuries that the Defendant inflicted upon them. Because of
Defendant's failure to prevent the Data Breach, the Plaintiff and
Class members suffered -- and will continue to suffer -- damages.
These damages include monetary losses, lost time, anxiety, and
emotional distress. Accordingly, the Plaintiff has already suffered
from identity theft and fraud. In October 2023, a cybercriminal
masquerading as the Plaintiff attempted to fraudulently change the
Plaintiff's bank account password -- which triggered the bank to
lock the Plaintiff's account. Thereafter, the Plaintiff spent time
trying to unlock his bank account, the suit further asserts.

Plaintiff Kyle Retorick is a former employee of the Defendant --
having worked for the Defendant from 2014 until January 2023.

The Defendant is a developer and manufacturer of chromatography
columns, sample preparation and collection products, reference
standards, and instrument accessories.[BN]

RETINA GROUP: Vance Sues Over Failure to Safeguard PII and PHI
--------------------------------------------------------------
Shalane Vance, and Sharon Jenkins, individually, and on behalf of
all others similarly situated v. The Retina Group of Washington,
PLLC, Case No. 8:24-cv-00079-TDC (D. Md., Jan. 9, 2024), is brought
to seek relief for the consequences of Defendant's failure to
reasonably safeguard Plaintiffs' and Class members' Private
Information; its failure to reasonably provide timely notification
that Plaintiffs' and Class members' Private Information had been
compromised by an unauthorized third party; and for intentionally
and unconscionably deceiving Plaintiffs and Class members
concerning the status, safety, location, access, and protection of
their Private Information.

As part of its services, RGW collects, maintains, and stores highly
sensitive personal and medical information belonging to its
patients, including, but not limited to: names, Social Security
numbers, driver's license or government-issued identification
numbers, dates of birth, addresses, telephone numbers, email
addresses, and demographic information (collectively, "personally
identifying information" or "PII"), information regarding medical
record numbers, and dates of service ("private health information"
or "PHI"), as well as health, payment, and insurance information
(collectively, with PII and PHI, "Private Information").

On March 26, 2023, RGW experienced a data breach incident in which
an unauthorized party accessed certain patient information from
RGW's network. Between July 7, 2023 and November 4, 2023, RGW
included a notification regarding this data breach incident on its
website, but did not disclose that the data breach involved current
and former patients' Private Information. According to RGW, on
December 8, 2023, it discovered that some sensitive Private
Information may have been impacted. On December 22, 2023, RGW
issued data breach notices to individuals whose information was
believed to have been accessed in this incident, including
Plaintiffs and Class members.

Ultimately, RGW failed to fulfill these obligations as an
unauthorized party breached RGW's information systems and databases
and accessed vast quantities of Private Information belonging to
Plaintiffs and Class members. This breach and the successful
exfiltration of Private Information were direct, proximate, and
foreseeable results of multiple failings on the part of RGW.

The data breach occurred because RGW inexcusably failed to
implement reasonable security protections to safeguard its
information systems and databases. Prior to the Data Breach, RGW
failed to inform the public that its data security practices were
deficient and inadequate. Had Plaintiffs and Class members been
made aware of this fact, they would have never provided their
Private Information to RGW, says the complaint.

The Plaintiff is a resident of Chevy Chase, Maryland and was a
former patient of RGW in 2021.

RGW is a Maryland-based healthcare provider specializing in
ophthalmology for retina diseases and vitreoretinal surgery.[BN]

---------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as CARLOS SANCHEZ,
individually and on behalf of other individuals similarly situated,
v. SAM'S WEST, INC. dba SAM'S CLUB, an Arkansas corporation, Case

SDH SERVICES: Fails to Pay Floor Technicians' Minimum & OT Wages
----------------------------------------------------------------
CESAR VELEZ CERNA, v. SDH SERVICES WEST LLC; and DOES 1 to 25,
inclusive, Case No. 24STCV00321 (Cal. Super., Jan. 5, 2024)
contends that SDH did not provide the Plaintiff and other aggrieved
employees with compensation for all hours worked, including minimum
wages and overtime wages.

The Plaintiff and others worked "off the clock" due to their meal
breaks being interrupted with work obligations and work duties.
Additionally, the Plaintiff and others also worked "off the clock"
and were not paid for all hours worked because SDH had a company
policy wherein they would disproportionately round down the number
of hours worked by the Plaintiff and other aggrieved employees,
resulting in "time shaving" and further resulting in aggrieved
employees not being paid for all hours worked, the lawsuit alleges.


In addition, Plaintiff and others were not compensated for the time
it takes to clock in and clock out of the workplace despite being
under the control of the employer. Due to the "off the clock"
violations and due to rounding/ "time shaving," SDH also violated
Labor Code section 510 because it failed to pay the Plaintiff and
other aggrieved employees overtime compensation, even though they
worked more than 8 hours per day, 12 hours per day, and/or 40 hours
per week throughout their employment, the lawsuit claims.

SDH failed to include bonuses/incentive payments in calculating the
Plaintiff's and other employees' regular rate of pay for use in
deciphering the correct overtime rate of pay. Additionally, the
incentive and bonus payments were also not factored into the
Plaintiff's and others' regular rate for purposes of receiving meal
and rest break premiums, the lawsuit further alleges.

The Plaintiff started working for SDH on January 7, 2022 as a floor
technician. During his employment tenure, the Plaintiff was
classified as an hourly, non-exempt employee. The Plaintiff latest
rate of pay was $22.90 per hour. The Plaintiff is still employed by
SDH.

SDH is a company doing business in California.[BN]

STATE FARM: Court Directs Filing of Discovery Plan in Brown Suit
----------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as Brown v. State Farm Mutual
Automobile Insurance Company, Case No. 4:23-cv-04184-MMM-JEH (C.D.
Ill.), the Hon. Judge Jonathan E. Hawley entered a standing order
as follows:

   -- Rule 16 scheduling conference

      The Court will set a Rule 16 scheduling conference
approximately
      30 days after the answer or other responsive pleading is
filed.
      The conference will generally be conducted by telephone.

   -- Discovery plan

      The discovery plan shall be filed with the Court at least
three
      calendar days before the Rule 16 scheduling conference.

   -- Waiver of the Rule 16 scheduling conference

      If the parties agree on all matters contained in the
discovery
      plan, then the parties may waive the Rule 16 scheduling
      conference. To do so, the parties shall indicate in the
      discovery that the parties agree upon all maters contained
      within the discovery plan, and they request that the Rule 16

      scheduling conference be cancelled.

   -- Failure of counsel to attend a scheduled telephone hearing

      For the convenience of counsel, the Court conducts most
hearings
      by telephone when possible. Counsel's failure to appear for a

      telephone hearing will be treated as a failure of counsel to

      appear for an in-person hearing.

   -- Discovery disputes brought to the Court's attention after the

      discovery deadline has already passed

      The parties may not raise a discovery dispute with the Court

      after the relevant discovery deadline has passed; all
discovery
      disputes must be brought to the Court's attention before the

      relevant discovery deadline passes. Any discovery disputes
      raised with the Court after the expiration of the relevant
      discovery deadline shall be deemed waived by the Court, even
if
      the parties agreed to conduct discovery after the relevant

conduct
      discovery after the expiration of a deadline set by the
Court,
      they must still file a motion requesting that the Court move

      that deadline as agreed by the parties in order to avoid any

      subsequent discovery disputes being deemed waived.

      The parties are encouraged to seek a settlement conference or

      mediation with a magistrate judge. Where parties request a
      settlement conference or mediation in a case referred to

WELLCARE INTERNATIONAL: Fails to Pay Drivers' OT Wages Under FLSA
-----------------------------------------------------------------
ANTONIO REGAR, individually and on behalf of others similarly
situated v. WELLCARE INTERNATIONAL INC., Case No. 2:24-cv-00192
(D.N.J., Jan. 11, 2024) seeks to recover unpaid overtime
compensation pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act and the New
Jersey State Wage and Hour Law.

The complaint asserts that the Plaintiff was paid $25 per hour from
June 2022 until November 23, 2023, and was not paid any overtime
despite working 80 hours per week. The Defendants allegedly
maintained a policy and practice of requiring the Plaintiff and the
FLSA collective employees to work more than 40 hours per week
without providing them with any additional compensation.

By reason of such willful violations, the Plaintiff asserts he is
entitled to recover from the Defendants liquidated damages,
prejudgment and post-judgment interest; and/or attorneys' fees and
costs, pursuant to the FLSA and NJWHL, says the suit.

The Plaintiff was employed by the Defendant at its company located
at 1578 Sussex Turnpike Building 3 & 4, Randolph, NJ 07869, from
June 2022 until November 23, 2023, as a truck driver/delivery.

WILLIAM ALBRECHT: Gilbert Sues Over Breach of Fiduciary Duty
------------------------------------------------------------
Eric Gilbert, on behalf of himself and all other similarly situated
stockholders of Halliburton Company v. WILLIAM ALBRECHT, ABDULAZIZ
AL KHAYYAL, KATHERINE BANKS, ALAN BENNETT, MILTON CARROLL, EARL
CUMMINGS, MURRAY GERBER, ROBERT MALONE, JEFFERY MILLER, BHAVESH
PATEL, MAURICE SMITH, JANET WEISS, TOBI EDWARDS YOUNG (the Board),
and HALLIBURTON COMPANY, Case No. 2024-0035- (Del. Chancery Ct.,
Jan. 12, 2024), is brought against the Company and the individual
members of its board of Directors seeking declaratory relief
invalidating certain provisions of the Company's Restated Advance
Notice Bylaw and also asserts a claim for breach of fiduciary duty
against the Director Defendants.

Delaware law reserves to stockholders the right to remove
directors. Delaware law does not permit directors to remove other
directors since to do so would subvert stockholders' fundamental
right to elect directors. The Board has subverted this prohibition
in two separate provisions (the "Challenged Provisions") of the
Bylaws. The Challenged Provisions effectively give the Board the
power to remove directors and improperly impinge on the
stockholders' right to elect directors of their choosing.

The Challenged Provisions are contrary to Delaware law, including
the equitable principles that give rise to the stockholders' right
to remove directors and the prohibition on directors removing other
directors, and the rights given to stockholders by 8 Del. C.
Section 211. The Challenged Provisions subvert stockholders' right
to elect directors of their choosing and impermissibly arrogates
rights to the Board that are reserved for stockholders.

Absent the relief requested herein, the Challenged Provisions will
continue to impinge on stockholders' fundamental right to elect
directors of their choosing, says the complaint.

The Plaintiff is, and has continuously been, a Halliburton
stockholder since at least January 26, 2022.

Halliburton is one of the world's largest providers of products and
services to the energy industry.[BN]
