Samsung Sued Over Alleged Smartphone Defects

On Tuesday, consumers filed a class-action complaint against Samsung Electronics America Inc. in the District of New Jersey over alleged defects of the Samsung Galaxy S20, S20 Ultra, and S20 FE, which purportedly cause the smartphone’s cameras to shatter and break.
According to the complaint, in the first quarter of 2020, “Samsung captured 20% of the global smartphone market share. Samsung achieved this in great part by recognizing that a smartphone’s functionality as a camera is critically important to consumers.” In particular, in March 2020, the Samsung Galaxy S20 and S20 Ultra phones were released, and, in October 2020, the S20 FE was released. The plaintiffs noted that these phones “have a prominent back camera module that encases multiple camera lenses.” As a result, because these phones are marketed as “camera focused” and have multiple camera lenses, the phones can cost up to $1,600.

A settlement with the online ticket reseller that operates TicketsOnSale.com will result in $183,450.67 in refunds to Virginia consumers.
TicketsOnSale.com is a website operated by Ryadd Inc. that advertises and resells tickets to consumers for events across the country, such as concerts, plays, and sporting events. Attorney General Mark Herring alleged in a complaint that the company included statements on its website promising refunds in the event of cancellations including that “[a] full refund will be given if an event is cancelled,” and that there was a “100% Buyer Guarantee” for tickets not delivered as promised.

Attorney General Mark Herring’s lawsuit against Charles D. Warren, Jr., the founder and CEO of Service Dogs by Warren Retrievers Inc., will move forward.
The suit against SDWR alleges that SDWR and Warren sold so-called “service dogs” that purportedly could assist consumers or their families with diabetes, autism, seizure disorders, or post-traumatic stress, but instead consumers often were delivered poorly-trained puppies with significant behavioral issues and inadequate skills or training.
