StubHub Ticket Fees Class Action Settlement

The class is made up of anyone who, between Sept. 1, 2015, and Sept. 1, 2019, while in California, purchased at least one ticket from StubHub using the StubHub website or mobile site â€" but not the mobile app.
The way StubHub displayed ticket fees on its site allegedly violated California law, according to the class action lawsuit. The platform allegedly displayed fees for the first time near the end of the purchase process.

Claims are due by June 25, 2022.
Mylan EpiPen Antitrust $264M Class Action Settlement

Individuals and entities who paid for or provided reimbursement for branded EpiPens or generic equivalents between Aug. 24, 2011, and Nov. 1, 2020, are eligible to make a claim.
Mylan was accused in a class action lawsuit of working with Pfizer to artificially raise the price of EpiPen products. Plaintiffs alleged the companies knowingly violated antitrust and racketeering laws.

Chipotle, which offers in-store, pick up and even delivery options, says on its website consumers can place a delivery order and pay only $1 in fees.
However, according to the plaintiffs in a 2021 class action lawsuit, Chipotle promised free or '$1 delivery' on food items while charging hidden delivery fees in the form of service fees and higher food prices.
Claim forms may be submitted through June 28, 2022.

From 2012 to 2014, Land Rover and Range Rover Sport vehicles were allegedly sold with a defective timing chain, according to the class action lawsuit. A vehicle's timing chain allows engine valves to open and vent exhaust while letting in gas and air.
The last day to submit a claim form is June 7, 2022.
JBS, Smithfield Pork Direct Purchasers Price-Fixing $102M Class Action Settlement

Other defendants in the case are Clemens Food Group, Hormel Foods, Indiana Packers, Seaboard Foods, Triumph Foods, Tyson Foods and Agri Stats.

Doctor's Best Glucosamine False Advertising Class Action Settlement
Doctor's Best has agreed to a settlement over claims it falsely advertises its glucosamine supplements as containing glucosamine sulfate. Class members can claim up to $25 without providing proof of purchase.
The settlement benefits consumers who purchased certain Doctor's Best glucosamine supplements between July 22, 2016, and Feb. 28, 2022. The settlement covers the following product.
- Doctor's Best Glucosamine Sulfate 750mg
- Vegan Glucosamine Sulfate 750mg
- Synergistic Glucosamine MSM
- Glucosamine Chondroitin MSM
- Vegan Glucosamine Chondroitin MSM
- and Glucosamine Chondroitin MSM + Hyaluronic Acid
Doctor's Best allegedly intentionally misrepresents its supplements as containing glucosamine sulfate, when in reality, the supplements contain less effective ingredients, such as glucosamine hydrochloride and potassium sulfate.
Plaintiffs argue they paid a higher price for Doctor's Best glucosamine supplements based on ads that represented the products as containing glucosamine sulfate. Because these representations were false, the lawsuit says, consumers overpaid for the supplements and suffered from financial injury.
June 14, 2022, is the last day to file a claim.
