AMERICAN SUGAR: Conspires to Fix Granulated Sugar Prices, Suit Says

SUGARS CORPORATION, COMMODITY INFORMATION, INC., and RICHARD
WISTISEN, Defendants, Case No. 0:24-cv-01292-JMB-ECW (D. Minn.,
April 11, 2024) is a class action against the Defendants for
violations of Sections 1 of the Sherman Act, Section 16 of the
Clayton Act, and the antitrust, unfair competition, and consumer
protection laws of various states in the U.S.

The case arises from the Defendants' unlawful agreement to
artificially raise, fix, maintain, or stabilize prices of
granulated sugar throughout the Class Period. The Defendants have
implemented their agreement by sharing accurate, competitively
sensitive, non-public information with one another, including
through Commodity. Commodity provided this reciprocal information
to the Defendants rapidly, often within hours of having received
it. The Defendants then used the information they received from
Commodity when deciding how much to charge for their products, says
the suit.

The Union Public House, LLC is a restaurant owner in Pensacola,
Florida.

American Sugar Refining, Inc. is a sugar producer based in West
Palm Beach, Florida.

ASR Group International, Inc. is a global producer and seller of
granulated sugar based in West Palm Beach, Florida.

APPLE INC: Faces Watson Suit Over Smartphone Market Monopoly
------------------------------------------------------------
JACQUELINE WATSON, individually and on behalf of all others
similarly situated, Plaintiff v. APPLE INC., Defendant, Case No.
2:24-cv-04445 (D.N.J., April 1, 2024) arises from Defendant's
violations of Section 2 of the Sherman Act, citing internal
documents that detail Apple's anticompetitive conduct.

According to the complaint, Apple Inc. has employed anticompetitive
practices to illegally maintain monopoly power over the smartphone
market. Instead of competing on the merits through innovation and
price, Apple sought to trap consumers on its platform, locking them
into iPhone usage and forestalling competing products. Apple
maintained a smartphone monopoly by suppressing five key
technologies that otherwise would have stimulated competition:
Super Apps, Cloud Streaming Game Apps, Messaging Apps,
Smartwatches, and Digital Wallets.

Apple protects its monopoly with a series of restraints that it
could not impose in a competitive market. When customers buy coffee
or pay for groceries, Apple charges a fee for every "tap-to-pay"
transaction, imposing its own costly interchange fee on financial
institutions. When an iPhone user runs an Internet search, Google
shares some of the advertising revenue generated by the search with
Apple. Consumers like Plaintiff, who purchased iPhones at
supracompetitive prices and have been deprived of innovation in a
competitive smartphone market, suffered harm from Apple's
anticompetitive practices, says the suit.

Apple Inc. is an American multinational corporation and technology
company headquartered in Cupertino, California.[BN]

BRISTOL-MYERS SQUIBB: Seeks to Seal Merits Discovery Materials
--------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as UMB Bank, N.A. v.
Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Case No. 1:21-cv-04897-JMF
(S.D.N.Y.), the Defendant asks the Court to enter an order
maintaining under seal the Merits Discovery Materials, and the
portions of UMB's opposition brief discussing those materials,
until 14 days after the deadline for filing summary judgment briefs
in this action, when the issue can be considered again based on the
procedural circumstances that then exist.

In their submissions, both parties have cited or discussed
discovery materials designated confidential under the Stipulation
and Order Governing Confidentiality of Discovery Materials and
Preservation of Privilege that was entered on Aug. 9, 2022.

The Merits Discovery Materials are a fraction of the confidential
discovery materials cited by UMB in its opposition.

Courts also have recognized that selective disclosure out of
context of confidential FDA materials, as in the UMB opposition,
would be more likely to "mislead the public" about liso-cel than to
"serve a general interest in public health or access."

Bristol-Myers is an American multinational pharmaceutical company.

CHANGE HEALTHCARE: Through the Forest Sues Over Unprotected Info
----------------------------------------------------------------
THROUGH THE FOREST COUNSELING INC., individually and on behalf of
all others similarly situated, Plaintiff v. CHANGE HEALTHCARE INC.
and UNITEDHEALTH GROUP INCORPORATED, Defendants, Case No.
3:24-cv-00370 (M.D. Tenn., April 1, 2024) is an action arising out
of Defendants' failure to maintain secure data security systems
leading to alleged devastating consequences nationwide for medical
businesses like Plaintiff's.

On February 22, 2024, UnitedHealth announced that it had
experienced a cybersecurity incident (the "Data Breach"). The
incident has had debilitating effects on the United States
healthcare system, including providers like Plaintiff, which have
been unable to timely collect billions of dollars in payments. The
Data Breach forced Defendants to shut down parts of Change
Healthcare's systems, depriving a large number of providers of the
ability to obtain insurance approval for their services -- meaning
they could not get paid. More than a month after the breach,
certain health care providers have still been unable to collect
payment for services rendered, says the suit.

Change Healthcare is a a healthcare technology company which
processes 15 billion health care transactions annually, including
for service that directly affect patient care and pharmacy
operations.[BN]

DAVIDS NATURAL: Schoeps Sues Over Toxic Chemicals in Toothpaste
---------------------------------------------------------------
ALEXANDRA SCHOEPS and MARLEY STUBBLEFIELD, individually and on
behalf of all others similarly situated, Plaintiffs v. DAVIDS
NATURAL TOOTHPASTE, INC., Defendant, Case No. 4:24-cv-01978 (N.D.
Cal., April 1, 2024) is a class action brought by the Plaintiffs,
on behalf of themselves and other similarly situated consumers who
purchased Davids Antiplaque & Whitening Fluoride-Free Premium
Natural Toothpaste, for Defendant's (1) violation of California's
Unfair Competition Law; (2) violation of the Consumers Legal
Remedies Act; (3) violation of California's False Advertising Law;
(4) fraudulent omission or concealment; (5) fraudulent
misrepresentation; (6) negligent misrepresentation; (7) unjust
enrichment; and (8) breach of express warranty.

According to the complaint, the Defendant made misrepresentations
to Plaintiffs and members of the Classes while suppressing the true
nature of the product. Specifically, by displaying the product and
describing the product as healthy and made with natural and
naturally derived ingredients, including on the product packaging,
on its website, and in its marketing, without disclosing that the
product contain toxic perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl
substances, commonly known as PFAS chemicals. As such, Defendant
affirmatively misrepresented the product despite its knowledge that
the Product was not as advertised, says the suit.

Natural Toothpaste, Inc., is a Delaware corporation with its
principal place of business in Menifee, California. The Company
markets and sells its toothpastes, including the product,
throughout California and the United States.[BN]

EQUIFAX INFORMATION: Gross Sues Over Clients' Damaged Credit Scores
-------------------------------------------------------------------
BRIAN GROSS, on behalf of himself and all other similarly situated,
Plaintiff v. EQUIFAX INFORMATION SERVICES, LLC, Defendant, Case No.
0:24-cv-01289-SRN-DTS (D. Minn., April 11, 2024) is a class action
against the Defendant for violations of the Fair Credit Reporting
Act.

According to the complaint, the Defendant violated the FCRA by
refusing to meaningfully reinvestigate the disputes and continued
reporting the new Fingerhut Fetti accounts despite receiving
numerous disputes from consumers that these new accounts were
opened without permission. The Defendant was aware that Fingerhut
was reporting the opening of thousands of new Fingerhut Fetti
accounts while simultaneously reporting the closing of thousands of
Fingerhut Advantage accounts. Yet, despite this suspicious
activity, the Defendant did not do anything to ensure that the new
Fingerhut Fetti accounts were opened with authorization. Instead,
the Defendant followed a policy of leaving the accuracy of its
credit reporting entirely to its paying customers even when it has
actual knowledge that the reporting is suspicious or unreliable.

As a result of the Defendant's conduct, the Plaintiff and Class
members suffered actual damages including but not limited to
impairment to credit, damage to reputation, emotional distress, and
wasted time, says the suit.

FAST BUSINESS: Court Tosses Starling Bid for Class Certification
----------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as R'KES STARLING, v. FAST
BUSINESS FINANCIAL, LLC, ET AL., Case No. 4:23-cv-00655-P (N.D.
Tex.), the Hon. Judge Mark Pittman entered an order denying class
certification.

The Court finds class certification would further delay a case that
has already languished for months too long.

On March 6, 2024, the Court extended the Plaintiff's class
certification deadline to April 1, 2024. That was the second such
extension the Court has granted for this case.

The Plaintiff filed this lawsuit in June 2023 but has still not
moved for class certification.

Fast Business provides funding to small businesses in minutes.

Hon. Judge Omar A. Williams entered an order that Plaintiff's
motion for class certification will be filed on or before Nov. 13,
2024.

The briefing schedule for this motion will follow the usual
timeline as delineated in the Local Rules and the Federal Rules of
Civil Procedure, but the parties may move to modify the schedule
when the motion is filed.

Additionally, the parties are instructed to submit a joint status
report on or before June 30, 2024, indicating the status of their

GRIDSUM HOLDING: Xu Awarded Attorneys' Fees & Expenses
-------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as PEIFA XU, Individually and
On Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated, v. GRIDSUM HOLDING
INC., GUOSHENG QI, RAVI SARATHY, MICHAEL PENG ZHANG, and THOMAS
ADAM MELCHER, Case No. 1:18-cv-03655-GHW (S.D.N.Y.), the Hon. Judge
Gregory Woods entered an order awarding attorneys' fees,
reimbursement of expenses, and awards to plaintiffs:

   1. This Order incorporates and makes a part of the Stipulation
and
      Agreement of Settlement dated December 1, 2023, and all
      capitalized terms not defined in this Order shall have the
      meaning set forth in the Stipulation.

   2. The Plaintiffs' counsel are hereby awarded attorneys' fees in

      the amount of 33.3% of the Settlement Fund, or $1,500,000,
      together with a proportionate share of the interest earned by

      the Settlement Fund, at the same rate as earned by the
balance
      of the Settlement Fund, and $309,186.50 in payment for
      litigation expenses, plus interest, (which fees and expenses

      shall be paid from the Settlement Fund), which sums the Court

      finds to be fair and reasonable.

   3. In making this award of attorneys’ fees and reimbursement
of
      litigation expenses to be paid from the Settlement Fund, the

      Court has considered and found that:

      a) the Settlement has created a common fund of $4,500,000 in

         cash that has been paid into escrow, from which numerous
         Settlement Class Members who submit valid Claim Forms will

         benefit as a result of the efforts of Plaintiffs' Counsel;


      b) the requested attorneys' fees and payment of litigation
         expenses have been reviewed and approved as fair and
         reasonable by the Plaintiffs who have been directly
involved
         in the prosecution and resolution of the Action and who
have
         substantial interests in ensuring that any fees and
expenses
         paid to counsel are duly earned and not excessive;

      c) 6,399 copies of the Postcard Notice were disseminated to
         putative Settlement Class Members stating that counsel
would
         be submitting an application for attorneys' fees in an
amount
         not to exceed 33.3% of the Settlement Fund, and payment of

         expenses incurred in connection with the prosecution of
this
         Action in an amount not to exceed $600,000, plus accrued
         interest, and that such application also might include a
         request that Plaintiffs be awarded for their time and
effort
         incurred in representing the Settlement Class. To date,
no
         Settlement Class Members have filed an objection to that
         application for fees and expenses;

   4. Lead Plaintiff William Barth is hereby awarded $25,000 from
the
      Settlement Fund as reimbursement for his reasonable costs and

      time dedicated to the prosecution of the Action on behalf of
the
      Settlement Class.

   5. Plaintiff Xuechen Li is hereby awarded $5,000 from the
      Settlement Fund as reimbursement for her reasonable costs and

      time dedicated to the prosecution of the Action on behalf of
the
      Settlement Class.

HEALTH CAREER: Roberson Suit Seeks Rule 23 Class Certification
--------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as BRITTANY ROBERSON, REBECCA
FREEMAN, BIANCA VIÑAS, TIFFANY KING, and TRESHA THOMPSON,
individually and on behalf of others similarly situated, v. HEALTH
CAREER INSTITUTE LLC (dba HCI COLLEGE LLC and HCI ACQUISITION LLC),
FLORIAN EDUCATION INVESTORS LLC, and STEVEN W. HART, Case No.
9:22-cv-81883-RAR (S.D. Fla.), the Plaintiffs ask the Court to
enter an order granting Plaintiffs' motion for class certification
and

     (i) certifying the Primary Classes and four Subclasses under
Rule
         23(b)(3);

    (ii) appointing the Named Plaintiffs as class representatives;
and

   (iii) appointing the undersigned as class counsel.

The proposed Primary Class is "all students who enrolled in the RN
Program at HCI after Sept. 1, 2019, and did not graduate."

The proposed subclasses are:

         "All class members who enrolled in the registered nurses
         ("RN") Program operating under NCLEX code 704146 (the "WPB

         Subclass"), all of whom were injured by the violations
         alleged in Count 6";

         "All class members who were denied advancement in the RN
         Program and/or had their transcripts or other HCI records

         withheld or delayed for any period of time as a result of

         their RIC balance (the "Withholding Subclass"), all of
whom
         were injured by the violations alleged in Count 7";

         "All class members who enrolled in the Capstone nursing
         course and paid for VATI after Sept. 1, 2019 (the "VATI
         Subclass"), all of whom were injured by the violations
         alleged in Count 8"; and

         "All Black class members who took out federal, private,
         and/or institutional student loans to pay for their
education
         (the "Targeting Subclass"), all of whom were injured by
the
         violations alleged in Counts 9 and 10.

The five Named Plaintiffs and over one thousand putative class
members enrolled in HCI's Associate of Science in Nursing degree
(the "RN Program"), which the Defendants marketed as a flexible
program that would qualify students, upon graduation, to take the
RN licensing examination in two years. But for the putative class,
HCI's RN Program was not a true pathway to the nursing profession.


Between Jan. 6, 2020, and May 8, 2023, 1,439 students enrolled in
the RN Program for the first time, and HCI deemed only 190 of them
-- 13% -- eligible to graduate and sit for the licensure exam. The
rest including the Named Plaintiffs and the putative class—were
caught in a hellish trap, as HCI intentionally and arbitrarily
obstructed their progress through the RN Program, meanwhile
collecting ever-growing amounts of money from them and putting them
in debt.

COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES, and SHERIFF ALEX VILLANUEVA, in his
individual and official capacities, Case No. 2:20-cv-07870-DMG-PD
(C.D. Cal.), the Hon. Judge Dolly Gee entered an order granting the
Plaintiffs' motion for class certification as follows:

   1. The Court certifies the following classes:

      Injunctive Relief Class

      "All persons who have in the past participated, presently are

      participating, or may in the future participate in, or be
      present at, demonstrations within the jurisdiction of the
      County of Los Angeles Sheriff's Department ("LASD") in the
      exercise of their rights of free speech, assembly and
petition
      in general, and particularly as it relates to protesting
police
      violence and/or discrimination."

      Arrest Class

      "All persons present at or during the aftermath of protests
      against police misconduct on June 3, 2020 and June 21, 2020,
who
      were arrested by the LASD on misdemeanor charges of failure
to
      obey a curfew or failure to disperse and who were subjected
to
      prolonged hand-cuffing, detained in crowded LASD vehicles,
and
      denied access to bathrooms and water."

      Direct Force Class

      "All persons present at or during the aftermath of protests
      regarding the killing of George Floyd in the County of Los
      Angeles, and similar protests against police misconduct on
      May 30, June 21, Aug. 25, Sept. 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, 19 and 25,
2020
      and June 12, 2021 who were engaged in peaceful protest and/or

so-
      called "less-lethal weapons," such as rubber bullets or

      and/or other similar munitions, by LASD deputies."

   2. The Court certifies the following class representatives:

      Injunctive Relief Class:

      Diana Barbadillo, Krizia Berg, Keyanna Bean, Grace Bryant,
      Noelani del Rosario-Sabet, Taegen Meyer, Serena Militante,

Report
      regarding their plans for the provision of class notice.

On Sept. 22, 2020, the Plaintiffs filed an ex parte application for
Temporary Restraining Order ("TRO") against the Defendants. The
Plaintiffs sought to enjoin LASD from the "indiscriminate" use of
(1) "less-lethal" projectiles on crowds of protesters if there is
no immediate threat and no order to disperse with time to comply
and (2) chemical agents or irritants to disperse or control crowds
of protesters without adequate warnings and time to comply. The
Court denied the TRO and set an expedited briefing schedule for a
motion for preliminary injunction.

AVE, LLC, MHF MONTICELLO, LLC, and ASHISH PARIKH, individually,
Case No. 153078/2024 (N.Y. Sup. Ct., New Yotk Cty., April 3, 2024),
is brought for violations of the New York State Labor Law ("NYLL"),
the New York Code of Rules and Regulations ("NYCRR"), The New York
Wage Theft Prevention Act, The New York City Administrative Code
("Fair Workweek Law"), as a result of the Defendants failure to pay
the Plaintiff proper wages.

During the course of her employment, Defendants required Plaintiff
to work shifts spanning two calendar days and with less than 11
hours between the shifts ("clopening"). The Plaintiff did not
consent in writing to working clopening shifts. The Defendants did
not pay Plaintiff an additional $100 premium for each clopening
shift.

The Plaintiff was required by Defendants to work shifts that began
and ended more than 10 hours apart in one day without being paid
one extra hour's pay at minimum wage for every day in which the
interval between their start and end times exceeded ten hours
("spread of hours").

When Plaintiff worked a spread of hours shift, she was entitled to
be paid an additional hour at the minimum wage. Defendants failed
to pay Plaintiff this additional hour for spread of hours shifts.
When Defendants first hired Plaintiff, they did not provide her
with a good faith estimate of the hours, dates, times, and
locations of their expected regular schedule in violation of N.Y.C.
Admin. Code, says the complaint.

The Plaintiff was employed by Defendants as a Fast Food Employee as
defined in the Hospitality Industry Wage Order.

City of New York, et al., Case No. 1:19-cv-07211 (E.D.N.Y., Filed

NIKE INC: Seeks Summary Adjudication on Cahill's Claims
-------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as KELLY CAHILL et al., v.
NIKE, INC., an Oregon Corporation, Case No. 3:18-cv-01477-JR (D.
Or.), the Defendant moves the Court for summary adjudication on
named Plaintiff Kelly Cahill's second and third Claims for Relief
under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

In compliance with Local Rule 7-1, Nike made a good faith effort to
confer with Cahill's counsel in order to resolve the dispute and
have been unable to do so.

As set forth fully in the accompanying legal memorandum, all of
Cahill's Title VII claims are barred for failure to exhaust
administrative remedies and, therefore, fail as a matter of law.

Accordingly, no triable issues exist with respect to Cahill's Title
VII claims and summary adjudication in favor of Nike is warranted.
In support of this motion, Nike relies on its Legal Memorandum and
the Declaration of Felicia A. Davis in support of its Motion for
Summary
Adjudication that contains the portions of the record relied upon
and cited in the Legal Memorandum.

Cahill's second and third Claims for Relief under Title VII (each
alleging gender discrimination) require her to timely file a charge
with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ("EEOC"). The
charge must be filed within 300 days of the allegedly unlawful
discrimination. Cahill did not do so. In fact, Cahill failed to
file a charge with the EEOC at all.

As a result, under black letter law, the Court lacks jurisdiction
over these claims because she failed to exhaust her administrative
remedies.

Nike is an American athletic footwear and apparel corporation

OSF HEALTHCARE: Court Directs Discovery Plan Filing in Hanson Suit
------------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as Hanson v. OSF Healthcare
System, Case No. 1:23-cv-01122-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
      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.

PROJECT E BEAUTY: Fontan Sues Over False Skin Rejuvenation Claims
-----------------------------------------------------------------
DAVID FONTAN, individually and on behalf of all others similarly
situated, Plaintiff v. PROJECT E BEAUTY, LLC, Defendant, Case No.
4:24-cv-02167 (N.D. Cal., April 11, 2024) is a class action against
the Defendant for violations of the California's Consumers Legal
Remedies Act, California's Consumers Unfair Competition Law, and
California's False Advertising Law, and for breach of express
warranty, breach of implied warranty, and unjust enrichment.

The case arises from the Defendant's false, deceptive, and
misleading advertising, labeling, and marketing of the Project E
Skin Rejuvenation Photon Mask. According to the complaint, the
Defendant markets and sells the Mask, a light-emitting diode (LED)
light therapy device that purportedly treats various skin
conditions. However, contrary to the Defendant's representations
and warranties, the Mask is not capable of providing the skin
rejuvenating benefits that it purports to provide, as its power
density output is too low to be effective. The Plaintiff and the
Class members would not have purchased the product or would not
have paid as much to purchase it had they known that it was, in
fact, not capable of producing the power density output necessary
to elicit the promised skin rejuvenating effects. The Plaintiff and
the Class members thus suffered monetary damages as a result of the
Defendant's false and deceptive representations and omissions, says
the suit.

PUP CULTURE: Villela Seeks Denial of Bid to Disqualify Counsel
--------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as ASHLEY VILELLA et al., v
PUP CULTURE LLC, et al., Case No. 1:23-cv-02291-LJL (S.D.N.Y.), the
Hon. Judge Lewis Liman entered an order denying the Defendants'
motion to disqualify counsel.

The Defendants move to disqualify the Lee Litigation Group and
attorney C.K. Lee from representing the Plaintiff, any opt-ins in
this case, and any members of the collective or potential class.

The Court cannot say that LLG and C.K. Lee acted with a lack of
candor to the Court and the evidence falls far short of
establishing that counsel acted unfairly to their adversary.

The Plaintiff filed this case on March 17, 2023, as a putative
collective and class action, complaining of violations of the Fair
Labor Standards Act of 1938 ("FLSA") and the New York Labor Law
("NYLL") against Pup Culture LLC and its owner.

On Sept. 28, 2023, the Plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint.
On
Nov. 17, 2023, the Court granted the Plaintiff's motion for
conditional certification of the case as a FLSA collective action.

Pup Culture is a dog walking and Pet Sitting company.

RED & BLUE DICE: Clark Sues Over Unpaid Minimum and Overtime Wages
------------------------------------------------------------------
Patricia Clark, individually and on behalf of similarly situated
persons v. RED & BLUE DICE CORPORATION, RED & BLUE DICE 2
CORPORATION, and AZHARUL ISLAM, Case No. 2:24-cv-01386 (E.D. Pa.,
April 3, 2024), is brought under the Fair Labor Standards Act
("FLSA"), to recover unpaid minimum wages and overtime hours owed
to herself and similarly situated delivery drivers employed by
Defendants at its Domino's stores.

The Defendants employ delivery drivers who use their own
automobiles to deliver pizza and other food items to their
customers. However, instead of reimbursing delivery drivers for the
reasonably approximate costs of the business use of their vehicles,
Defendants use a flawed method to determine reimbursement rates
that provides such an unreasonably low rate beneath any reasonable
approximation of the expenses they incur that the drivers'
unreimbursed expenses cause their wages to fall below the federal
minimum wage during some or all workweeks (nominal wages –
unreimbursed vehicle costs = subminimum net wages), says the
complaint.

The Plaintiff was employed by Defendants from October 2022 to
February 2023 as a delivery driver at Defendants' Domino's store.

The Defendants operate numerous Domino's Pizza franchise
stores.[BN]

RETINA CONSULTANTS: Bartek Sues Over Unpaid Overtime Wages
----------------------------------------------------------
Stuart Bartek, individually and on behalf of all others similarly
situated v. RETINA CONSULTANTS OF HOUSTON, PLLC d/b/a RETINA
CONSULTANTS OF TEXAS, Case No. 4:24-cv-01272 (S.D. Tex., April 5,
2024), is brought to recover unpaid overtime wages and other
damages owed in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)

The Plaintiff and other Network Systems Technician for the
Defendant regularly worked in excess of 40 hours in a week. But the
Defendant did not pay the Plaintiff and the other Network Systems
Technicians overtime when they worked in excess of 40 hours in a
week, as required by the FLSA. Instead, the Defendant improperly
classified the Plaintiff and the other underwriters as exempt
employees and paid them a salary with no overtime compensation.
This action seeks to recover the unpaid overtime wages and other
damages owed by the Defendant to these workers, says the
complaint.

The Plaintiff worked for the Defendant as a Network Systems
Technician.

The Defendant provides medical and surgical retinal care throughout
Texas.[BN]

ROCK SPRING: Class Settlement  in Rosales Suit Approved
-------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as GUILLERMO PEREZ ROSALES,
v. ROCK SPRING CONTRACTING LLC, et al., Case No. 3:23-cv-00407-RCY
(E.D. Va.), the Hon. Judge Roderick C. Young entered an order
granting the parties' joint motion to approve settlement.

The Court finds that the agreed-upon attorneys' fees award --
a$100,000.00, or 27% of the Gross Settlement Amount—is fair and
reasonable.

The Plaintiffs allege that Defendants violated both the Fair Labor
Standards Act ("FLSA") and Virginia state law by failing to pay
overtime wages to their laborers.

Specifically, the Plaintiffs claim "that from the three years
preceding the filing of the Complaint, laborers were not properly
paid their overtime for all hours worked over forty in a week."

The Plaintiffs are drywall mechanics, drywall finishers, and
associated laborers.

Rock provides demolition, drywall, demountable walls, raised access
floors and dumpster and hauling services to general contractors.

RTB CONSUMER: Class Certification Bid Denied w/o Prejudice
----------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit re Google RTB Consumer Privacy
Litigation, Case No. 4:21-cv-02155-YGR (N.D. Cal.), the Hon. Judge
Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers entered an order:

-- granting in part and denying in part Google's Daubert motion
    against Professor Richards;

-- denying as moot the Plaintiffs' Daubert motion against Google's

    expert Bruce Deal;

-- denying with prejudice the Plaintiffs' motion for class
    certification under Rule 23(b)(3); and

-- denying without prejudice the Plaintiffs' motion for class
    certification under Rule 23(b)(2).

The Plaintiffs seek to certify a class consisting of all individual
Google account holders subject to a Google United States Terms of
Service whose personal information was sold or shared by
Google in its RTB auctions after June 28, 2016.

The Plaintiffs assert: Although Google repeatedly promises its
account holders that it has not, does not, and will not sell their
personal
information, they have garnered common evidence that Google sells
this this type of data billions of times each day to hundreds of
participating advertisers.

This common evidence, the Plaintiffs conclude, justifies class
certification. Google objects. It urges that individualized issues
will predominate on the critical issue of whether individual
account holders have consented to its RTB data collection.

INC., a Delaware Corporation; and RYDER SYSTEM, INC., a Florida
Corporation, Case No. 2:23-cv-00477-TLN-JDP (E.D. Cal.), the Hon.
Judge Troy Nunley entered an order that:

      60 days.

   2. The Plaintiff's deadline to file a motion for class
      certification is extended by 60 days to December 30, 2024.

for
damages against Ryder.

actions participated in a successful mediation and agreed to a
settlement in principle that, by definition, Ryder states
encompasses the putative class and claims alleged in the
Plaintiff's Class Action.

On Jan. 3, 2024, the Parties stipulated to stay discovery in this
case by 30 days in exchange for Ryder providing the executed
Settlement Agreement to counsel in this case when it is fully
executed, to give the Parties time to meet and confer regarding the
impact of the Perkins/Johnson settlement on this case.

On Feb. 1, 2024, the Parties stipulated to stay discovery for
another 30 days and to extend Plaintiff's deadline to file a motion
for class certification by sixty days, as the Perkins/Johnson
settlement had not been fully drafted.

Ryder provides transportation services.

SHAKLEE CORP: Faces Liz Suit Over Blind-Inaccessible Website
------------------------------------------------------------
PEDRO LIZ, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated,
Plaintiffs v. Shaklee Corporation, Defendant, Case No.
1:24-cv-02448 (S.D.N.Y., April 1, 2024) is a civil rights action
against the Defendant for its failure to design, construct,
maintain, and operate its website, Shaklee.com, to be fully
accessible to and independently usable by Plaintiff and other blind
or visually-impaired persons in violation of the Americans with
Disabilities Act, the New York State Human Rights Law, and the New
York City Human Rights Law.

The Plaintiff browsed and intended to make an online purchase of a
wellness set on Shaklee.com. He was looking online for a complex
wellness package that could assist him in achieving his health
objectives. Being health-conscious and dedicated to maintaining a
balanced lifestyle, he tried to find a wellness product that would
contain all the necessary vitamins and minerals for his overall
well-being. He discovered the Defendant's website and attempted to
select a suitable pack, but he faced difficulties while navigating
the website due to its accessibility issues, which prevented him
from completing the purchase, says the suit.

The Plaintiff seeks a permanent injunction to cause a change in
Shaklee's policies, practices, and procedures to that Defendant's
website will become and remain accessible to blind and
visually-impaired consumers. This complaint also seeks compensatory
damages to compensate Class members for having been subjected to
unlawful discrimination.

SIGNIFY HEALTH: Court Junks ARPI Bid to File Amended Complaint
--------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as ABANTE ROOTER AND
PLUMBING, INC., v. SIGNIFY HEALTH, LLC, Case No. 3:23-cv-06234-RS
(N.D. Cal.), the Hon. Judge Richard Seeborg entered an order
denying motion for leave to file amended complaint and to show
cause why the action should not be dismissed.

In light of Abante's apparent concession that it has no claim
against defendant in this action, Abante is ordered to show cause
within two weeks of the date of this order why the action should
not be dismissed. In the event no response to this order is timely
filed, the case will be dismissed without further notice.

The Plaintiff Rooter and Plumbing filed a motion for leave to file
an amended complaint under which it would no longer be a party, and
a new plaintiff would instead take over.

Abante's motion for leave to amend effectively concedes it has no
claim arising from the phone calls alleged in the complaint, and
that it would not even be a member of the putative class (unless it
separately received calls from defendants, which it does not
allege).

Signify Health designs and develops software solutions.

TAKEYA USA: Boduch Sues Over Severe Burn from Defective Product
---------------------------------------------------------------
Grzegorz Boduch, individually and on behalf of others similarly
situated v. TAKEYA USA CORPORATION and COSTCO WHOLESALE
CORPORATION, Case No. 1:24-cv-02701 (N.D. Ill., April 3, 2024), is
brought on behalf of persons who suffered severe burn injuries as a
result of the conduct of Defendants Takeya and Costco of selling
defective product.

Specifically, Takeya designed and manufactured a defective product,
Costco sold a defective product, and both Defendants failed to
adequately warn Plaintiff and consumers in general of the dangers
of the product.

On December 10, 2023, the lid of a ThermoFlask bottle filled with
hot water burst open and severely scalded Plaintiff's hand. The
Plaintiff's doctors have indicated that Plaintiff will suffer the
consequences of the severe burns for life, including permanent
nerve damage, pain, scarring and sensitivity to cold.

The Plaintiff is not alone. Tens of thousands of consumers have
purchased defectively designed ThermoFlask water bottles without
adequate warnings. On information and belief, many consumers, like
Plaintiff, have already sustained injuries. All of them are in
danger of sustaining injuries in the future. Accordingly, Plaintiff
brings this complaint on behalf of himself and on behalf of all
consumers who have purchased ThermoFlask water bottles within the
applicable limitations period, says the complaint.

The Plaintiff purchased a 40 ounce-size ThermoFlask water bottle
designed and manufactured by Defendant Takeya.

Takeya designs and manufactures ThermoFlask water bottles.[BN]

In the class action lawsuit captioned as KENNETH MOTT, Individually
and on behalf of all others similarly situated, v. TDS
Telecommunications, LLC, and TSD Telecom Service LLC, Case No.
1:24-CV-185 (D. Colo.), the Plaintiff asks the Court to enter an
order:

   (1) conditionally certifying this case as a nationwide Fair
       Labor Standards Act collective action pursuant to 29 U.S.C.

       section 216(b);

   (2) approving the Plaintiff's proposed notices and authorizing
       counsel to send initial notice by mail, email and text

       notice period; and

   (3) ordering the Defendants to produce an electronic file with

In support of his motion, the Plaintiff submits declarations from
nine Network Specialists, reflecting a range of seniority levels,
geographic areas, and internal teams. This evidence demonstrates
that Network Specialists are similar in ways that matter, rendering
collective treatment appropriate for the proposed FLSA Collective

or

performing
       similar duties anywhere in the United States any time since

       three years prior to the filing of this Complaint through
the
       present.

the Defendants, and discussed whether the Parties could reach
agreement to avoid the need for this motion. Additionally, Counsel

TESLA INC: Brown Sues Over Systematic Mistreatment of Employees
---------------------------------------------------------------
Shannon Brown, Tami Okada, individuals, on behalf of themselves and
all others similarly situated v. TESLA, INC. d/b/a TESLA MOTORS,
INC.; and DOES 1 through 10, Inclusive, Case No. 2:24-at-00418
(E.D. Cal., April 4, 2024), is brought on behalf of Plaintiffs and
the Class because of Defendants' systematic mistreatment of their
employees, in violation of California's wage and hour laws.

The Defendants compensated Plaintiffs at an hourly rate of pay.
Defendants also compensated Plaintiffs on a regular basis with
bonuses. The Plaintiffs worked five days a week during most weeks.
Plaintiffs regularly worked more than eight hours a day and more
than 40 hours a week. The Defendants denied Plaintiffs and other
non-exempt employees in California specific rights afforded to them
under the California Labor Code, and the applicable Industrial
Welfare Commission Wage Order ("IWC Wage Order"). Furthermore,
despite Plaintiffs and other Class members regularly earning
bonuses, Defendants did not properly include all those bonuses in
the calculation of their regular rates of pay. Therefore,
Defendants did not pay Plaintiffs and other Class members overtime
pay, sick and vacation pay and meal and rest break premiums at the
correct hourly rates, says the complaint.

The Plaintiffs worked as non-exempt employees.

TETRA TECH: Amended Class Settlement Partially Gets Initial OK

In the class action lawsuit captioned as LAGARION BROWN, et al., v.
TETRA TECH, INC., et al., Case No. 2:20-cv-01133-DJC-DMC (E.D.
Cal.),  the Hon. Judge Daniel Calabretta entered an order that:

   1. Plaintiffs' Motion for Preliminary Approval of Amended Class

      Settlement is granted in part.

      Specifically:

      a. The proposed Rule 23 Class and FLSA Collective are
certified
         for settlement purposes.
      b. The named Plaintiffs, Lagarion Brown, Roy Jackson, Yaphett

         Saunders, Isaac Saunders, Hakeem Allambie, and Nichlon
         Garrett, are appointed as Class Representatives for
         settlement purposes.
      c. Plaintiffs' counsel Mallison & Martinez are appointed as
         Class Counsel for settlement purposes.
      d. Phoenix Class Action Administration Solutions is appointed
to
         act as the Settlement Administrator.

   2. Plaintiffs' Motion is denied as to preliminary approval of
the
      settlement and approval of the class notice.

   3. The Parties are ordered to submit an amended settlement and
      notice which address the Court’s concerns regarding the
Private
      Attorney General Act ("PAGA") claims within 45 days. The
amended
      notice should also clarify the requirements for Class members
to
      dispute the number of workweeks used to calculate their
      recovery.

The proposed settlement class comprises all non-exempt employees of
Jesco who worked on projects subcontracted by Tetra between June 3,
2016, and May 1, 202. Members of the Class include employees who
belong to one or more of the following three subsets:

   1. The Rule 23 Class:

      "All persons who were employed by Jesco as non-exempt
employees
      in California and who worked on projects subcontracted by
Tetra
      at any time between June 3, 2016, and May 1, 2022."

   2. The PAGA Class:

      "All persons who were employed by Jesco as non-exempt
employees
      in California and who worked on projects subcontracted by
Tetra
      at any time between May 11, 2019, and May 1, 2022.

   3. The FLSA Collective:

      "All persons who were employed by Jesco as non-exempt
employees
      in the United States who worked on projects subcontracted by

      Tetra at any time between June 3, 2017, and May 1, 2022."

The Plaintiffs seek approval of their amended $600,000 Federal Rule
of Civil Procedure 23 ("Rule 23") class, Fair Labor Standards Act
("FLSA") collective, and PAGA settlement on behalf of themselves
and approximately 230 similarly situated environmental technicians
who
were employed by Defendant Jesco Environmental and Geotechnical
Services, Inc. to perform post-disaster assessments and cleanup in
Butte County, California for Defendant Tetra Tech, Inc. between
2016 and 2022.

The Plaintiffs brought this action on June 3, 2020, alleging unpaid
wage, meal and rest break, and expense reimbursement violations
under the California Labor Code and federal law.

Tetra Tech is an American consulting and engineering services.

      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.

TRANSUNION LLC: Faces Gross Suit Over Inaccurate Credit Reporting
-----------------------------------------------------------------
BRIAN GROSS, on behalf of himself and all other similarly situated,
Plaintiff v. TRANSUNION LLC, Defendant, Case No.
0:24-cv-01290-DWF-DLM (D. Minn., April 11, 2024) is a class action
against the Defendant for violations of the Fair Credit Reporting
Act.

According to the complaint, the Defendant violated the FCRA by
refusing to meaningfully reinvestigate the disputes and continued
reporting the new Fingerhut Fetti accounts despite receiving
numerous disputes from consumers that these new accounts were
opened without permission. The Defendant was aware that Fingerhut
was reporting the opening of thousands of new Fingerhut Fetti
accounts while simultaneously reporting the closing of thousands of
Fingerhut Advantage accounts. Yet, despite this suspicious
activity, the Defendant did not do anything to ensure that the new
Fingerhut Fetti accounts were opened with authorization. Instead,
the Defendant followed a policy of leaving the accuracy of its
credit reporting entirely to its paying customers even when it has
actual knowledge that the reporting is suspicious or unreliable.

As a result of the Defendant's conduct, the Plaintiff and Class
members suffered actual damages including but not limited to
impairment to credit, damage to reputation, emotional distress, and
wasted time, the suit says.

TransUnion, LLC is a consumer reporting agency doing business
throughout the United States, including in Minnesota. [BN]

UNITED STATES: Clinkenbeard Loses Bid to Certify Class
------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as ROBERT CLINKENBEARD, v.
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, et al., Case No. 1:24-cv-00491-APM
(D.D.C.), the Hon. Judge Amit Mehta entered an order:

-- denying Plaintiff's motions to certify class, appointment of
    counsel, and preliminary injunction; and

-- granting Plaintiff's motion to amend the complaint

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. section 1915(d) and FED. R. CIV. P. 4(c)(3),
the Clerk of Court shall issue summonses and shall cause service of
process to be effected by the United States Marshals Service on the
Defendant, the United States Attorney General, and the United
States Attorney for the District of Columbia.

The Plaintiff alleges that the Warden of FCI Sandstone "has placed
inmates ([plaintiff] included) under a disciplinary policy,
referred to as 'Warden's Restriction' without hearing or notice, of
either the status under this policy or notification of the
sanctions imposed," and sanctions include restricted access to
e-mail and communication by means other than the United States
Postal Service.

According to the Plaintiff, the Warden's Restriction has "an
adverse effect on at least 150 inmates" at FCI Sandstone, and he
asks the Court "to consider certification of [this] suit as a class

action."

The Plaintiff is a federal prisoner currently designated to the
Federal Correctional Institution in Sandstone, Minnesota.

United States is a country primarily located in North America.

UNITED STATES: Rubenstein Bid for Class Certification Tossed
------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as JACOB RUBENSTEIN, v.
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Case No. 2:23-cv-12685-MAG-EAS (E.D.
Mich.), the Hon. Judge Mark Goldsmith entered an order denying
Petitioner's motion for class certification and for appointment of
counsel.

The Court will bear in mind Petitioner's request if, upon further
review of the pleadings, it determines that appointment of counsel
is necessary for the proper adjudication of this case. Petitioner
need not file another motion concerning this issue.

The Petitioner has submitted his habeas petition and supporting
materials, but Respondent has not yet filed an answer to the
petition or any relevant court documents or administrative records.
Petitioner's request for counsel is therefore premature, and he
fails to show that the appointment of counsel is warranted at this
time.

Federal prisoner Jacob Rubenstein, confined at the Federal
Correctional Institution in Milan, Michigan, challenges the
execution of his federal sentence, namely his eligibility to
receive sentencing credits under the First Step Act, 18 U.S.C. '
3632.

The Plaintiff alleges that the statutory exclusion for child
pornography offenders, 18 U.S.C. ' 3632(d)(4)(D)(xli), (xlii),
violates his due process and equal protection rights. He asks the
Court to strike down those provisions of the First Step Act and to
order the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) to retroactively award and apply
First Step Act sentencing credits to his federal sentence.

UNITED SUGAR: Golden Sues Over Conspiring and Fixing Prices
-----------------------------------------------------------
Raleigh Golden, on behalf of herself and all others similarly
situated v. UNITED SUGAR PRODUCERS & REFINERS COOPERATIVE F/K/A
UNITED SUGARS CORPORATION, AMERICAN SUGAR REFINING, INC., ASR GROUP
INTERNATIONAL, INC., DOMINO FOODS, INC., CARGILL, INC., MICHIGAN
SUGAR COMPANY, COMMODITY INFORMATION, INC., AND RICHARD WISTISEN,
Case No. 0:24-cv-01129 (D. Minn., April 2, 2024), is brought to
recover damages and obtain injunctive relief against Defendants for
violations of the antitrust laws of the United States, and the
antitrust and consumer protection laws of the states as a result of
the Defendants and their co-conspirators conspiring and combining
to fix, raise, maintain and stabilize prices for Granulated Sugar
sold throughout the United States since at least January 1, 2019.

In furtherance of this conspiracy, the Producing Defendants engaged
in anticompetitive behavior including by price signaling and by
exchanging competitively sensitive information related to pricing,
production capacity, sales volume and demand, including through
Defendant Commodity. The Producing Defendants took these actions
with the intent and effect of increasing Granulated Sugar prices
throughout the United States.

For years, Defendant Commodity Information, Inc. ("Commodity") has
enabled and encouraged the Producing Defendants, the nation's
largest producers of Granulated Sugar, to exchange with each other
detailed, non-public, competitively sensitive information
regarding, among other things, prices (including prospective
prices), capacity, sales volume, and demand.

In doing so, Commodity promotes industry profits at the expense of
competition. It does this by providing Producing Defendants with
non-public insights into their competitors' production, costs, and
pricing. Commodity enables and encourages Producing Defendants to
use this information to increase prices for purchasers, and thereby
increase their own profits.

As a direct result of Defendant's conspiracy, Granulated Sugar
prices in the United States have been artificially inflated
throughout the Class Period, causing Plaintiff and Class Members to
pay more for Granulated Sugar than they would have but for the
conspiracy. On behalf of a proposed class of tens of millions of
consumers nationwide, Plaintiff brings this class action to put an
end to Defendants' illegal scheme, to recover damages, and to
restore competition in the Granulated Sugar marketplace, says the
complaint.

The Plaintiff purchased Granulated Sugar indirectly from one or
more of the Producing Defendants.

WILLARD JACKSON: Court Stays Discovery in Carter Suit
------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as JEFFREY CARTER, v. WILLARD
L. JACKSON, et al., Case No. 1:23-cv-01775-KES-SAB (E.D. Cal.), the
Hon. Judge Stanley Boone entered an order that:

   1. The Defendant's motion to stay discovery, which the Court
      construes as a motion for protective order to preclude the
      Plaintiff from making untimely discovery requests prior to
      discovery commencing pursuant to Rule 26, is granted;

   2. The Defendant's motion to permit discovery regarding the
      Plaintiff's counsel's qualifications to be appointed class
      counsel is denied without prejudice; and

   3. The Defendant's opposition to the Plaintiff's motion for
      extension of time to serve the Defendants and leave to serve
by
      way of substitute service and publication is denied as moot.

The Court ordered that Plaintiff file a proper motion under the
Federal Rules of Procedure and Local Rules requesting relief no
later than April 9, 2024. Accordingly, without addressing the
Defendant's
substantive arguments, the Court denies the Defendant's
opposition—filed after the Court denied the Plaintiff's
motion—as moot.

On April 3, 2024, the Defendant Vicent Petrescu, proceeding pro se,
filed an "emergency motion" to stay discovery pending class
certification; a motion "to permit discovery about Plaintiff's
counsel's qualifications to be appointed class counsel; and an
opposition to Plaintiff's unopposed motion enlarging time to serve
six other Defendants in this action. The Court finds oppositions by
Plaintiff would not aid the Court in deciding the issues and shall
address each filing in turn herein.
