BEST BUY: Deposition Okayed in "Harris" Wage & Hour Suit
--------------------------------------------------------
Magistrate Judge Kandis A. Westmore of the United States District
Court for the Northern District of California granted in part
Plaintiff's request to compel Rule 30(b)(6) deposition testimony
in the case captioned, STARVONA HARRIS, Plaintiff, v. BEST BUY
STORES, L.P., Defendant, Case No. 15-CV-00657-HSG(KAW)(N.D. Cal.)

Plaintiff Starvona Harris filed a Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)
collective action and California class action lawsuit against her
former employer Best Buy Stores, L.P. for violations of wage and
hour laws. Plaintiff was employed by Best Buy from October 2013 to
September 2014. Specifically, Plaintiff alleges that she and other
non-exempt employees "were paid an hourly rate of pay for the work
performed, along with a nondiscretionary bonus," which should have
been included in determining the regular rate of pay for overtime
purposes, but was not.

On September 30, 2015, the parties filed a joint letter in which
Plaintiff seeks to compel Rule 30(b)(6) testimony regarding 11
noticed deposition topics including the hours worked by Plaintiff,
all compensation listed on Plaintiff's wage statements, Best Buy's
timekeeping system, documents distributed during Plaintiff's
employment, the Points Received GU and Merchandise Received, and
Defendant's corporate structure.

In the Order dated October 16, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/x8V0Yqfrom Leagle.com, Judge Westmore ordered
Defendant to produce a corporate witness to testify on Topic No. 5
regarding all STI bonus programs in effect during Plaintiff's
employment, and may not limit the scope to FY 2015.  Best Buy is
also ordered to produce a corporate witness to testify regarding
Topic No. 28 only as it pertains to complaints regarding the STI
bonus program, and Topic No. 29 only as it pertains to California
or federal agency investigations related to the inclusion of
bonuses or STI payments in calculating the overtime rate of pay.

BLACKBERRY: Investors Has Permit to Seek Class Status of Suit
-------------------------------------------------------------
Aman Jain, writing for Value Walk, reported that
BlackBerry investors, who were hoping to sue the company for
allegedly misrepresenting the financial success of BB10 devices,
have got some good news.

Such investors have now got the permission to ask that a court
certify a proposed class-action under the Ontario Securities Act,
says a report from Financial Post.

Plaintiffs have enough evidence in support

The plaintiffs in the proposed action are capable of producing
enough evidence at the trial for winning the case, an Ontario
judge said. On Tuesday, Justice Edward Belobaba of the Ontario
Supreme Court issued a decision, saying, "I am satisfied on the
evidence before me that both the alleged misrepresentation and the
public correction have been sufficiently established and that
there is a reasonable possibility that the action will be resolved
in the plaintiff's favor at trial."

The case dates back to September 20, 2013. The BB10 devices from
the company -- the touch-screen BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry Q10
with a QWERTY keyboard -- on which the Canadian firm was relying
for the revival of its fortunes, sold very poorly. On January 30,
2013, the company launched those devices.

Thereafter, the company disclosed a $1 billion writedown and
slashed its workforce by 40%. Following the move, Blackberry's
stock lost over 15%.

BlackBerry used wrong accounting method

The plaintiffs accused the Canadian firm of making use of improper
'sell-in' accounting for several months under which they booked
revenue as soon as they shipped BB10 devices to the distributors.
Instead, they should have used of 'sell-through' accounting in
which the company's book revenue only after the device has reached
the end user. Use of 'sell-in' accounting method resulted in a
misrepresentation of the company's financial position, which got
inflated due to it.

The plaintiffs further argue that in the September 20, 2013 news
release, BlackBerry publicly corrected the alleged
misrepresentation. The Canadian firm acknowledged that it will
only account for Z10 and Q10 sales that were sold to end
customers. The judge agreed that the company was making a public
correction in admitting to this switch.

Justice Belobaba wrote that "in sum" he agrees with the plaintiffs
claims that the company's announcement regarding the switch it
made to sell-through accounting and the associated $1 billion
inventory change, when read in context, does suggest that the
company made a public correction of the sell-in method of revenue
recognition it used in the previous two quarters.


BOFI HOLDING: Dec. 14 Lead Plaintiff Bid Deadline
-------------------------------------------------
Scott+Scott, Attorneys at Law, LLP ("Scott+Scott"), reminds
investors that they have until December 14, 2015 to file lead

allegations that BofI failed to maintain adequate internal
controls and underwriting standards. On this news, shares of BofI
fell $42.87, or 30.2%, to close at $99.13 on October 14, 2015.

CAPE FEAR: CA Affirms Summary Judgment on Point South Claim
-----------------------------------------------------------
In the case captioned, POINT SOUTH PROPERTIES, LLC, and SANCO
BUILDERS CORPORATION, Plaintiffs, v. CAPE FEAR PUBLIC UTILITY
AUTHORITY and NEW HANOVER COUNTY, Defendants, and CB WINDSWEPT,
LLC, SELLAR'S COVE, LLC, TELFAIR SUMMIT, LLC, and CB SNOWS CUT
LANDING, LLC, Plaintiffs, v. CAPE FEAR PUBLIC UTILITY AUTHORITY
and NEW HANOVER COUNTY, Defendants, Case No. CAO15-371, 15-374
(N.C. App. Ct.), Judge Valerie Johnson Zachary of the Court of
Appeals of North Carolina affirmed a trial court order granting
summary judgment in favor of the plaintiffs on their claim that
the defendants' imposition of impact fees was ultra vires and
beyond their authority, and for recovery of plaintiffs' damages
resulting therefrom.

Plaintiffs' claims stemmed from the payment of impact fees
assessed by defendants. The cases were consolidated for oral
argument. In the complaint plaintiffs seek the refund of the
impact fees plaintiffs had paid, together with interest and
attorney's fees. On September 4, 2014 the trial court conducted a
single hearing on the summary judgment motions of the parties in
both cases, at which all plaintiffs were represented by the same
law firm. The trial court entered identical orders in both cases
granting summary judgment for the plaintiffs in each case.

On appeal, Defendants argue that plaintiffs' claims are barred by
the applicable statute of limitations. Defendants contend that the
parties have no disagreement over defendants' authority to impose
the impact fees at issue and that plaintiffs "simply allege that
the manner in which Defendants have exercised this statutory
authority has resulted in liability." In addition, defendants
maintain that plaintiffs have claimed that defendants "acted
improperly under these statutes by not actually providing sewer
service to the Properties."

In the Order dated October 20, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/moNmuTfrom Leagle.com, Justice Zachary held that the
trial court did not err and did not abuse its discretion.
Defendants have failed to demonstrate that a genuine issue of
material fact exists that made it improper for the trial court to
award summary judgment in favor of plaintiffs.

CATERPILLAR INC: Ruling in Suit by Workers' Spouses Stands
----------------------------------------------------------
District Judge Aleta Trauger of the United States District Court
for the Middle District of Tennessee denied a motion to reconsider
filed by Caterpillar and a motion to reconsider filed by
Plaintiffs in the case captioned, JUDITH K. KERNS, et al.,
Plaintiffs, v. CATERPILLAR INC., Defendant/Third-Party Plaintiff,
v. INTERNATIONAL UNION, UAW, et al., Third-Party Defendants, Case
No. 3:06-CV-1113 (M.D. Tenn.).

The class-action is brought on behalf of surviving spouses of
former employees of Caterpillar who retired on or after March 16,
1998, and before January 10, 2005. The plaintiffs filed the action
in 2006, seeking relief under Sec. 301 of the Labor Management
Relations Act  29 U.S.C. Sec. 185, and under Sec. 502 of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act, 29 U.S.C. Sec. 1132. The
plaintiffs allege that Caterpillar breached its contractual
obligation to provide lifetime health benefits to surviving
spouses of Caterpillar retirees at no cost.

The court entered judgment for the plaintiffs on their claims
related to Caterpillar's imposition of premiums. The summary
judgment order resolved all liability issues between the
plaintiffs and Caterpillar. Still pending at the time of the
court's March 26, 2010 summary judgment ruling was Caterpillar's
October 16, 2008 appeal of the court's preliminary injunction
order for a subclass of the Winnett plaintiffs. On June 22, 2010,
the Sixth Circuit reversed the Winnett preliminary injunction
order, finding that the claims of the subclass were barred by the
statute of limitations.

CHARLIE SHEEN: Could Face Class Action Over HIV Diagnosis
---------------------------------------------------------
The Toronto Sun reported that Gloria Allred, the top lawyer who
has made Bill Cosby's life a living hell for much of 2015, has
revealed she's considering leading a class action lawsuit against
Charlie Sheen.

The actor went public with his HIV-positive diagnosis during a
candid U.S. TV interview on Tuesday, revealing he was coming
forward with the news in an effort to stop ongoing extortion
attempts from ex-lovers.

But it now appears he could be facing more pay-outs from a group
of women, who have asked Allred to represent them.

They all claim Sheen put them at risk by sleeping with them.
"Since Charlie Sheen's interview, I will now confirm that I have
been contacted by women with reference to Charlie Sheen and their
rights," Allred tells TMZ.com. "I have no comment on what will
happen next."

In his interview with Today show host Matt Lauer, Sheen insisted
he has told every woman he has slept with following his HIV
diagnosis in 2011 that he had contracted the disease.

Former porn star Bree Olson and a host of other women have already
come forward with claims they weren't told Charlie was ill while
they were sleeping with him. Sheen's representative insists that's
because his client did not know he was HIV-positive at the time.

Sheen has confessed that he had unprotected sex with two women
post-2011, but insists both knew of his condition.

Allred has had a busy 2015 -- she has been representing 28 of the
40-plus women who have hit funnyman Bill Cosby with accusations of
sexual abuse, rape and drugging. She recently deposed the comedian
on behalf of one of her clients.

fees pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1447(c) in the case captioned,
EARL A. ADAMS, JR., ET AL., Plaintiffs, v. CHEVRON USA, INC., ET
AL., SECTION: "E" (1) Defendant, Case No. 15-4360 (E.D. La.).

Earl A. Adams, Jr. and hundreds of other plaintiffs filed suit in
Civil District Court for the Parish of Orleans on December 16,
2002, asserting personal injury and property damage claims from
alleged exposure to contamination from oil field pipe. Plaintiffs
filed an Amending and Supplemental Petition for damages on January
8, 2004, and a Second Amending and Supplemental Petition on
January 14, 2015. Plaintiffs filed their Third Amending and
Supplemental Petition on August 12, 2015.

The case was transferred from another section of the Court
pursuant to Local Rule 3.1.1 after it was discovered that the
matter relates to a case previously before the Court, Robertson,
et al. v. Chevron USA, Inc., et al.  Robertson involved many of
the same defendants, the same allegations, the same property, and
the same causes of action. Robertson was remanded to state court
on September 2, 2015.

In the motion, Plaintiffs argue (1) removal was untimely; (2) the
Court lacks subject-matter jurisdiction over this matter; (3)
Defendants failed to meet the jurisdictional burden under the
Class Action Fairness Act of 2005; and (4) Plaintiffs' action
falls under CAFA's mandatory abstention provisions, namely the
local controversy exception and the home state exception.
Plaintiffs also assert they are entitled to all costs and
attorney's fees incurred as a result of the removal pursuant to 28
U.S.C. Sec. 1447(c).

In her Order and Reasons dated November 16, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/5u3A20from Leagle.com, Judge Morgan found that
removal was untimely, and remand is appropriate because under the
Louisiana relation-back doctrine, the amended pleading relates
back to the original petition. The Court also found that awarding
Plaintiffs costs and attorney's fees under Sec. 1447(c) would be
improper because there is nothing to suggest Defendants removed
the case to prolong litigation or otherwise impose greater costs
on Plaintiffs.

CREDIT ONE: Must Defend Against "Schwartz" in E.D. Pa.
------------------------------------------------------
District Judge J. Curtis Joyner of the United States District
Court for Eastern District of Pennsylvania denied Defendant's
motion to dismiss Plaintiff's complaint for lack of subject matter
jurisdiction and to compel arbitration in the case captioned,
PATRICIA SCHWARTZ, Plaintiff, v. CREDIT ONE FINANCIAL, d/b/a
CREDIT ONE BANK, Defendant, Case No. 15-CV-3938 (E.D. Pa.).

Plaintiff instituted the action on July 16, 2014 against Defendant
Credit One pursuant to the provisions of the Telephone Consumer
Protection Act, 47 U.S.C. Sec. 227, et seq. In her complaint,
Plaintiff alleges that Defendant violated Section 227(b)(1)(A) of
the Act by repeatedly using an automatic telephone dialing system
or automatic/pre-recorded messages to call her on her cell phone
about an account belonging to her son. Plaintiff seeks to recover
actual, statutory and treble damages for these alleged violations
as well as injunctive relief pursuant to 47 U.S.C. Sec. 227(b)(3).

Defendant seeks the dismissal of the complaint and to compel
Plaintiff to arbitrate her claims against it. Alternatively,
Defendant moves to stay the proceedings pending arbitration.
Defendant contends that Plaintiff "agreed to binding arbitration
of any and all disputes arising out of her Credit One credit card
account" which she opened on or about March 3, 2014.

In the Memorandum and Order dated October 14, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/J5JxQSfrom Leagle.com, Judge Joyner concluded that
inasmuch as the arbitration agreement does not appear to cover the
situation, and given that a court may order arbitration of a
particular dispute only where it is satisfied that the parties
agreed to arbitrate that dispute, the Court cannot make the
requisite finding based on the presently-existing record that this
matter is properly within the scope of the arbitration clause
contained within Plaintiff's cardholder agreement. The Court is
compelled to deny the motion to dismiss and/or to compel
arbitration, albeit with the proviso that Defendant is free to re-
raise the matter of arbitrability by filing a motion for summary
judgment following the taking of discovery on the issue.

CROWDFLOWER INC: Court Denies Bid to Modify Settlement Agreement
----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Jon S. Tigar of the United States District Court for
Northern District of California denied without prejudice the
parties' motion to modify the Court's July 2 order and to approve
the suggested modifications to the settlement agreement in the
case captioned, CHRISTOPHER OTEY, et al., Plaintiffs, v.
CROWDFLOWER, INC., et al., Defendants, Case No. 12-CV-05524-JST
(N.D. Cal.).

Named Plaintiffs Christopher Otey and Mary Greth performed tasks
for CrowdFlower through a website called Amazon Mechanical Turk
(AMT). The gravamen of their Complaint is that CrowdFlower pays
its contributors, whom it classifies as independent contractors,
less than the minimum wage under FLSA, 29 U.S.C. Sec. 206(a), and
Oregon law, ORS Sections 653.025 and 652.150. Plaintiffs brought
their Oregon law claims as class action claims under Rule 23.

On August 27, 2013, the Court granted Plaintiffs' Motion for
Conditional Certification of a Collective Action, and
conditionally certified a class "All persons who performed
crowdsourced work in the United States and its territories in
response to any online request by CrowdFlower for crowdsourced
work, or any online notification by CrowdFlower that crowdsourced
work was available at any time from three years prior to the date
on which notice is issued to the date on which notice is issued."
The Court had previously approved the agreement on July 2, 2015.

The Settlement called for Defendants to pay a total of
$585,507.00, to be allocated as follows:

     (1) a net settlement amount available for class member's
         claims estimated at $297,672.66;

     (2) claims administration expenses not to exceed
         $70,000.00;

     (3) class representative service awards not to exceed
         $5,000.00 for Plaintiff Greth and $6,000.00 for
         Plaintiff Otey;

     (4) reasonable costs incurred in obtaining a response to
         a subpoena issued to AMT;

     (5) attorneys' fees in an amount not to exceed $146,377.00;
         and

     (6) costs in an amount not to exceed $50,457.34.

The parties have jointly asked for the Court's approval of several
changes to their Second Modified FLSA Collective Action
Settlement.

In the Order dated October 20, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/oEykN0from Leagle.com, Justice Zachary concluded
that the parties have not sufficiently explained why the proposed
re-definition of the class is fair and reasonable. The Court seeks
an explanation from the parties as to why these particular class
members may be asked to verify their identities, and how the
claims administrator will determine when to ask for proof of
identity.

DR. REDDY: Faces Class Action Suit by Two US Law Firms
------------------------------------------------------
Business Standard reported that Dr Reddy's Laboratories denied
allegations of misrepresentation of facts regarding its financial
performance as claimed by a couple of US law firms even as the
company stock fell as much as 7.5% in morning trade over a
possible class action suit.

Lundin Law PC, a Los Angeles law firm said it was investigating
claims against Dr Reddy's concerning possible violations of
federal securities laws in the US.

"The investigation is related to allegations that certain
statements issued by Dr Reddy's were false and misleading
concerning the company's financial performance," the law firm
said.

Khang and Khang LLP, another California-based law firm, issued a
similar statement, saying it was focusing its investigation on
whether the company and its officers violated securities laws by
issuing misleading information to investors.

Responding to the allegations, a company spokesperson said in a
statement: "Dr Reddy's has always adhered to all disclosure
requirements both of the Securities and Exchange Commission(SECs)
and Indian Stock Exchanges; including accounting practices as per
the International Financial Reporting Standards(IFRS) and the

Indian Accounting Standards. The company has no further comment on
what might be advertorial press releases by law firms and refutes
all these allegations."

The company shares fell 15% on November 6 following a warning
letter issued by the US drug regulator the US Food and Drug
Administration (USFDA) over the quality issues involving three of
its manufacturing plants in AP and Telangana states. The down
slide continued for a couple of more sessions there after with a
fall of 5-6 per cent in each session.

The law firms, which said they are investigating into possible
violations, have also cited this warning letter as an immediate
trigger for their action. They have asked investors to join the
possible class action law suit against the company.


EDGAR ADULT: Former Residents Reach $35.9-Mil. Settlement
---------------------------------------------------------
Sara Carson, writing for Simcoe, reported that a $35.9-million
settlement agreement has been reached between the province and
former residents of 12 institutions for the developmentally
delayed, including Edgar Adult Occupational Centre in Oro-Medonte.

Barrie resident Jim Templin, who was institutionalized at Edgar
from 1983 to 1986, is surprised the suit, launched in August, was
settled so quickly.

"This one is actually progressing quite nicely. More rapidly than
what we had anticipated," the 49-year-old said.

It took five years to settle a similar class action lawsuit
between the province and former residents of Huronia Regional
Centre (HRC) in Orillia.

Christine Burke, spokesperson for the Office of the Attorney
General of Ontario, said the 2013 HRC settlement helped set the
model for this current agreement.

"The settlement in HRC was a fair and reasonable compromise of the
claim and served as a model on which the settlement of the current
action could be based, including the claims process," she said.

Jody Brown, associate lawyer with Toronto law firm Koskie Minsky
LLP, said the timing is a relief to former residents, who will not
have to wait years for compensation.

"It's a good sign the government decided they should get this done
sooner rather than later," he said.

Koskie Minsky represents roughly 8,000 individuals who lived at
the 12 institutions.

A settlement approval hearing will be held in early 2016 at the
Superior Court of Justice in Toronto. If approved, claimants will
follow the same compensation process as those involved in the 2013
settlement of HRC.

In a prepared statement, Ontario Attorney General Madeleine
Meilleur said: "This tentative agreement is a step to address a
painful chapter of our province's history. It is my hope that a
settlement in this matter will help former residents who suffered
harm move forward with dignity."

The case began last year with former Edgar resident and plaintiff
Marlene McIntyre, who lived in the institution between August 1973
and December 1974. She was also housed in the HRC. The class
action alleged negligence and breach of fiduciary duty in respect
of the province's operation and management of the 12 facilities.
The parties agreed to settle all issues among themselves and 'the
plaintiff and class counsel concluded this settlement agreement
provides substantial benefits to the class members and is fair,
reasonable and in the best interests of the class members.'

Former residents who submit a claim will receive between $2,000
and $42,000, Brown said.

"People will be able to write down what happened to them. There is
no need to testify or provide witnesses or anything," he said.

Compensation is determined based on the nature of harm suffered
and the sufficiency of the evidence provided, states the
agreement. Types of harm include sexual assault, physical assault
and repeated, persistent and excessive wrongful acts constituting
demeaning behaviour, humiliation or excessive physical punishment.

Those who cannot, or who do not want to explain the abuse they
faced will get a maximum $2,000, Brown said.

About $28 million has been set aside for the claims process. The
lawyers' fees are capped at $3.7 million and the remaining cash
goes to other expenses, Brown said.

The money is not enough for Templin. He wants to province to
apologize for how he was treated at Edgar.

"It's not the monetary value that matters most. It's the fact that
the government made a mistake in the mismanagement of these
institutions and if we can get the government to admit they made a
mistake that would be better than anything else," he said.

This settlement does not include an apology. Ontario Premier
Kathleen Wynne apologized in December 2013 after the HRC
settlement.

"In the past we have taken responsibility for the suffering of
those who were harmed in a place that was intended to provide them
with support," Burke said. "This settlement is designed to give
those former residents who suffered harm while at these facilities
access to compensation."

Brown expects less than 8,000 people to submit claims because some
former residents have died. Claims can be submitted for any former
resident who was alive as of June 16, 2012.

Any money remaining in the settlement fund after the claims are
processed will be returned to the province.

The 12 institutions in this class action include: the St. Lawrence
Regional Centre, D'Arcy Place, the Edgar Adult Occupational
Centre, Pine Ridge, Muskoka Centre, Oxford Regional Centre,
Midwestern Regional Centre, L.S. Penrose Centre, Bluewater Centre,
Durham Centre for Developmentally Handicapped, Prince Edward
Heights and Northwestern Regional Centre.

FANDUEL INC: Employee Playing Policy Strengthens Class Action
-------------------------------------------------------------
Flushdraw.net reported that the filing for an indictment against
DFS (daily fantasy sports) market giants FanDuel and DraftKings by
New York State Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman adds new
levels of complexity to the legal battleground now facing the
fledging DFS industry within the US.

Not only will the pending New York State lawsuit likely make it
more difficult for the DFS sites to retain their current size or
expand within the US market, but it will also add fuel to the
class-action fire already facing the two companies, perhaps even
triggering a second wave of consumer complaints.

The reason for this is the release, as an appendix accompanying
injunction filing, of an internal FanDuel employee document which
will likely be portrayed as a template for how employees of that
site were virtually instructed on how to use their insider
advantage in moderate ways while competing against more casual
players on other sites.  Employees of FanDuel and DraftKings
notably and prominently competed against players on each other's
sites, though that practice was curtailed after a public furor
arose over DraftKings employee Ethan Haskell's $350,000 score in a
major NFL contest on FanDuel.

Haskell himself was specifically exonerated by DraftKings
regarding his possible use of DraftKings' user data regarding that
contest, but the company never addressed whether Haskell or other
employees had used such data in other contests.  Over at FanDuel,
employee Matthew Boccio was named as a co-defendant in one of the
class-action cases filed in October. Boccio was a big, high-volume
winner in DFS contests at DraftKings, and he has been described as
a "model employee" at FanDuel.

The problem that FanDuel now faces is that the employee document
that emerged now paints the company as actively promoting its
employees' efforts in competing unfairly against casual DFS
players even if it's being done on other sites.

DraftKings will face the same heat as well, if a similar document
from within that company ever emerges.

The document in question is called the "FanDuel Employee DFS
Information and Playing Policy," and this writer believes it's
going to be a big thorn in the side of FanDuel's ongoing class-
action legal defense.  The entire exercise was rationalized under
the concept of "Playing on other sites helps employees do their
jobs better," but a thorough reading of the three-page document
suggests an alternate meaning: "Go ahead and make money elsewhere,
but do it in moderation, so as not to arouse suspicion."

Here's the initial section on "Goals," or what the FanDuel policy
was designed to accomplish:

Goals: These outline what we're hoping to accomplish by asking
you (and other employees) to agree to this policy.

   -- Limit ability of employees to exploit "inside information"
such as the picks of top users, or the win rates of potential
opponents.

   -- Reassure any concerned site users that employees aren't
exploiting inside info.

   -- Reduce chance of users questioning ability of employees to
exploit inside info against them when they play on other sites.

Big problems, right from the start.  When you're talking about
"limiting" or "reducing" access, you're admitting that the access
exists, and that the information has the potential to be used by
employees elsewhere in unfair ways.

From there it's on to "Principles," or what passed for them within
FanDuel's corporate culture:

Principles: These are some of the factors that played into the
specific set of rules that we're asking you to agree to.

   -- Playing on other sites helps employees do their jobs better

   -- 'Do no harm' through play on other sites, so users are less
likely to be suspicious or angry.

   -- Minimize internal flow of exploitable information where
possible, so that there are fewer opportunities for exploitation.

   -- We hire people we trust, so we don't have any scandals.

   -- This document should provide clarity to employees on what is
and isn't acceptable.

"Do no harm" is supposed to mean what, exactly?  Play to lose?
Don't win too much?  Hide your winnings as efficiently as
possible?  The answers to some of those questions do appear in
what follows in the document, in ways the company won't be happy
have been exposed.  Onward.

Risks: These are some of the things that could go wrong if we
didn't have a policy or if the policy wasn't followed.

   -- Employees copying user's picks. Although this is the one
that users sometimes ask about, it isn't much of a risk because
the salary structures on each site are completely different. In
addition, there are differences in scoring and roster
configurations. At best, employees might get an idea of a player
to research from a top user's lineups. . . but that kind of
information is available lots of places.

   -- Employees targeting weak users as opponents on other sites.
This seems to concern users less, but is more of a real threat. In
fact, in a sense, it is happening already. Information that is
known can't be unknown, so it's important that we put some
controls in place to limit it.

   -- Leakage of personal information (including win rate) of
users outside of company.

There's less in that section of a legally dangerous nature, but
the true minefield looms:

Internal Controls & Guidelines: These are rules about how you
will treat confidential information.

   -- Only discuss our users' success and lineups where necessary.
The less awareness of this information internally, the less
chances for exploitation.

   -- There is an expectation that employees will only look up
info such as user lineups or user win rates where needed to do
job.

Wow to that last one.  This implies that at FanDuel, there have
been no specific controls over access to user data, and it's been
available to all on some sort of honor system.

Rules for Employee Play on Other Sites:

   -- Never be among the top five players by volume on any one
site (based on site leaderboards). Never be among the top ten
overall on the RotoGrinders leaderboard. Top players frequently
become targets for accusations by other users.

   -- Never account for more than 2% of entries in any tournament
of more than 1,000 entries. Never account for more than 5% of
entries in any tournament of more than 100 entries. Players who
swamp big tournaments with entries frequently become targets of
accusations.

   -- Don't be the 2nd person into a head to head contest against
the same opponent in more than one contest per day. This rule will
greatly limit the ability to exploit information about user
performance, and will also limit the likelihood of complaints from
users.

   -- Never use information gained from viewing users' lineups.

   -- Seek to avoid playing anyone whose lineups you saw for that
time period.

By quantifying some of these things and specifying that it's
necessary to do so to avoid arousing suspicion and accusations
among casual players, it says (in this writer's opinion) that
FanDuel is tacitly admitting that its employees have access to
information that provides a competitive advantage and that they
are encouraging the application of that information on competing
sites, largely DraftKings.  That's going to be big trouble in
these legal cases down the road, both amid the consumer class-
action filings and regarding AG Schneiderman's claims of fraud and
misrepresentation by the company.

Though it's only a brief, large-type, three-page form, it's a
highly damaging document.  And it concluded with a demand to
FanDuel's employees to provide their usernames on all other DFS
sites, along with agreeing to a 12-month "playing on FanDuel" non-
compete following termination of employment for any reason.  It's
very odd that FanDuel would be more worried about former employees
coming back to play on FanDuel than they would be about those
employees heading off to work for other companies.


FANDUEL INC: Faces "Cadapan" Suit Over DFS Website Operation
------------------------------------------------------------
Dave Cadapan, on Behalf of Himself and All Others Similarly
Situated, v. Fanduel, Inc. and Draftkings, Inc., Case No. 1:15-cv-
08719 (S.D.N.Y., Nov. 5, 2015), alleges that the two companies
operate daily fantasy sports (DFS) websites in a manner that
violates California law, and analogous common and consumer
protection laws in each state in which they operate, including New
York.

DFS websites exist as a non-regulated industry where individuals
compete against other individuals in fantasy sports games on a
daily basis. Defendants operate contests or tournaments where
individuals accumulate points based on the real-life statistics of
players in professional sporting events that occur on a particular
day. Individuals can play for free or pay money to compete for
cash prizes.

FIFTH GENERATION: Court Trims Claims in "Terlesky" Complaint
------------------------------------------------------------
In the case captioned, Anne Terlesky, and all others similarly
situated, Plaintiffs, v. Fifth Dimension, Inc., Defendant, Case
No. 1:15-CV-374 (S.D. Ohio), District Judge Susan J. Dlott of the
United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio
granted in part Defendant's motion to dismiss the complaint with
respect to Plaintiff's ODTPA claim, OCSPA class claim, and fraud
claim.

The action is brought by Plaintiff on behalf of herself and class
members who purchased Tito's Handmade Vodka because the label
described the product as both "Handmade" and "Crafted in an Old
Fashioned Pot Still by America's Original Microdistillery."

Defendant was named in the Complaint as "Fifth Dimension, Inc."
but asserts in its Motion to Dismiss that its proper party name is
"Fifth Generation, Inc." The Court will accordingly refer to the
Defendant as Fifth Generation, Inc.

Fifth Generation, Inc., is alleged to manufacturer, distribute,
market, and/or sell Tito's Handmade Vodka. Plaintiff alleges that
the product is not actually handmade, because it is made from
commercially manufactured neutral grain spirit that is trucked and
pumped into an industrial facility, distilled in a large
industrial complex with modern, technologically advanced stills,
and produced and bottled in extremely large quantities.

Plaintiff asserts the following claims: violation of the Ohio
Deceptive Trade Practices Act, violation of the Ohio Consumer
Sales Practices Act, unjust enrichment, promissory estoppel,
negligent misrepresentation, fraud, and declaratory
judgment/injunctive relief.

Defendant argues that each of Plaintiff's claims is subject to
dismissal. Defendant claims Plaintiff lacks standing to allege a
claim under the Ohio Deceptive Trade Practices Act and fails to
allege notice sufficient to pursue a class action under the Ohio
Consumer Sales Practices Act. Defendant claims Plaintiff's
remaining claims are either inadequately plead or fail as a matter
of law.

In her Order dated November 17, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/SdmZKDfrom Leagle.com, Judge Dlott held that a
"consumer" does not have standing to commence a civil action under
the ODTPA and that Delahunt controlling, and because Plaintiff has
not alleged an injury proximately caused by the reliance, her
claim for fraud cannot stand.

GEORGIA: Suit Accuses State of Massive Data Breach
--------------------------------------------------
Kristina Torres, writing for The Atlanta Journal Constitution,
reported that two Georgia women have filed a class action lawsuit
alleging a massive data breach by Secretary of State Brian Kemp
involving the Social Security numbers and other private
information of more than six million voters statewide.

The suit, filed in Fulton County Superior Court, alleges Kemp's
office released the information including personal identifying
information to the media, political parties and other paying
subscribers who legally buy voter information from the state.

In response, Kemp's office blamed a "clerical error" and said that
they did not consider it to be a breach of its system. It said 12
organizations, including statewide political parties, news media
organizations and Georgia GunOwner Magazine, received the file.

"Our office shares voter registration data every month with news
media and political parties that have requested it as required by
Georgia law," Kemp said in a statement. "Due to a clerical error
where information was put in the wrong file, 12 recipients
received a disc that contained personal identifying information
that should not have been included. This violated the policies
that I put in place to protect voters personal information.

"My office undertook immediate corrective action, including
contacting each recipient to retrieve the disc, and I have taken
additional administrative action within the agency to deal with
the error," Kemp said.

The suit alleges the unauthorized information released in October
in the voter lists also involved dates of birth and drivers'
license numbers. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution independently
confirmed the inclusion of the personal data in the October file.
The AJC did so by accessing the October data disc, looking up
information for an AJC staffer and confirming his Social Security
number and driver's license information was included.

The AJC has returned its copy of the disc to the state.
It is unclear how the private information came to be included in
the file, and whether it was an internal error or the fault of an
outsider contractor.

"Kemp has not notified a single Georgia citizen that his or her
information may have been compromised," the suit said. "Nor has he
notified any consumer reporting agencies about the breach that
could compromise 'the security, confidentiality, or integrity of
personal information' of each Georgia voter as required under
Georgia law," it said.

Third parties can legally buy the voter lists from the state, but
the lists are only supposed to include a voter's name, residential
or mailing address, race, gender, registration date and last
voting date.
The alleged breach, which the suit says happened internally
because of lax controls in Kemp's office, would be one of the
largest ever by a state.

In 2012, a massive data breach reported by South Carolina
officials exposed 3.8 million Social Security numbers of the
state's residents. At the time, Georgia officials said the state
used data encryption and other controls not in place when hackers
breached South Carolina's Department of Revenue.

HANDLON CORRECTIONAL: Class Suit Barred, Most Plaintiffs Tossed
---------------------------------------------------------------
District Judge Robert Holmes Bell of the United States District
Court for Western District of Michigan dismissed all of the
Plaintiffs, except for Joseph Gregory Dunbar, and denied a motion
to file a class action, ex-parte motion for injunctive relief,
motion for evidentiary hearing, motion to waive fees and costs
temporarily in the case captioned, JOSEPH GREGORY DUNBAR et al.,
Plaintiffs, v. YVONNE ROSE, Defendant, Case No. 1:15-CV-881 (W.D.
Mich.).

The civil rights action brought by 33 state prisoners pursuant to
42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983. Plaintiffs assert violations of their First
Amendment right of access to the courts. Plaintiffs allege that
the legal books in the Richard A. Handlon Correctional Facility
have been replaced by an electronic law library with four work
stations. Plaintiffs also claim that they have not been trained in
how to use the computer system for legal research. Plaintiffs
further allege that due to limited capacity, a prisoner may wait
up to three days after making a request to be called out to the
law library.

In addition, Plaintiffs contend that prisoners with GEDs, who do
not qualify for assistance through the Legal Writer Program, are
not permitted to talk or pass notes in the library, and, thus, are
effectively barred from receiving assistance from other prisoners
with greater legal experience and knowledge.

In the motion, Plaintiffs seek to file a class action and ex parte
motion for injunctive relief, motion for evidentiary hearing,
motion to waive fees and costs temporarily.

In his Opinion dated October 19, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/qRafhdfrom Leagle.com, Judge Bell concluded that
Plaintiffs are not appropriate representatives of a class because
they are incarcerated pro se litigants. Plaintiffs cannot seek
relief jointly because each Plaintiff must specifically allege how
the lack of legal resources or assistance caused him to suffer
actual injury to a pending or contemplated habeas corpus or civil
rights action. Plaintiff's motion for preliminary is denied
because they lack sufficient showing of a violation of
constitutional rights. Plaintiff has failed to file the required
prisoner trust account statement and affidavit of indigence in
order to proceed in forma pauperis.

Plaintiff Dunbar is required by the Court to file an amended
complaint on the form provided by the Court.


ILLINOIS BELL: Court Denies Motion to Dismiss "Ballard" Case
------------------------------------------------------------
District Judge Amy J. St. Eve of the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Illinois denied Illinois Bell's
motion to dismiss in the case captioned, VICTOR BALLARD,
Plaintiff, v. ILLINOIS BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY, d/b/a AT&T
Illinois, Defendant, Case No. 15 C 2687 (N.D. Ill.).

On July 29, 2015, Ballard filed an Amended Complaint alleging
violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. Sec. 201 et
seq. (FLSA), and the Illinois Minimum Wage Law, 820 ILCS 105/1, et
seq. (IMWL) based on Defendant Illinois Bell Telephone Company's
(Illinois Bell) alleged failure to pay overtime compensation for
all hours worked in excess of 40 hours in a week. Ballard's
allegations include:

     (1) a claim based on his reviewing assignments, getting
         supplies, preparing his truck, and meeting with
         supervisors before his shift started,

     (2) a claim based on eating lunch while on the job site,
         and

     (3) a claim based on working after his shift had ended
         in order to enter his time and clean out his truck.

Illinois Bell argues that the FLSA's and IMWL's limitations
periods prohibit Ballard from bringing his pre-shift, lunch break,
and post-shift claims that are broader than the claims initially
certified in the case, Blakes v. Ill. Bell Tel. Co., Case No. 11 C
0336; and that, absent tolling, Ballard's broader pre-February 28,
2011 claims are barred by the limitations periods based on the
assumption that the filing date of the lawsuit before Chief Judge
Castillo, namely, February 28, 2014, is the relevant date for
limitations purposes.

In her Memorandum Opinion and Order dated October 21, 2015
available at http://is.gd/OtIR5zfrom Leagle.com, Judge Eve
concluded that all of Ballard's claims are timely because
Ballard's present Amended Complaint relates back to the Blakes
lawsuit in which Ballard filed a written consent on July 27, 2011.

IQOR HOLDINGS: Call Center Workers' Suit Wins Class Status
----------------------------------------------------------
District Judge Susan Richard Nelson of the United States District
Court for the District of Minnesota granted Plaintiffs' motion for
conditional class certification and court-authorized notice
pursuant to 29 U.S.C. Sec. 216(b); and denied Defendant's motion
for Judgment on the Pleadings in the case captioned, Paris Shoots,
Jonathan Bell, Maxwell, Turner, Tammy Hope, and Phillipp Ostrovsky
on behalf of themselves, the Proposed Rule 23 Classes, and others
similarly situated, Plaintiffs, v. iQor Holdings US Inc.,
Defendant, Case No. 15-CV-563(SRN/SER)(D. Minn.).

On January 21, 2015, Plaintiff Paris Shoots filed the action in
Hennepin County District Court on behalf of himself and a proposed
Rule 23 class of call center workers employed by Defendant iQor
Holdings US Inc. Plaintiffs allege that in their offers of
employment, iQor did not refer to the TimeQey system nor did iQor
indicate that certain time would not be compensated. Plaintiffs
also allege that iQor fails to explain the TimeQey system to new
hires and fails to explain its policies on non-compensable time or
employees' ability to request idle time reimbursement.

On April 3, 2015, Shoots filed a First Amended Complaint (FAC)
adding as named Plaintiffs Jonathan Bell, Maxwell Turner, Tammy
Hope, and Phillipp Ostrovsky. In the FAC, Plaintiffs assert 23
state-law claims under the laws of Minnesota, New York, Ohio, and
Arizona seeking to recover straight time and overtime wages, and a
nationwide collective action claim for unpaid overtime wages
pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).

In the motion, Plaintiffs seek the Court's conditional
certification of the instant case as a nationwide collective
action as to their overtime claims under the FLSA. Plaintiffs
contend that at this very early stage of litigation, the evidence
demonstrates that the named Plaintiffs who assert FLSA claims, the
opt-in Plaintiffs, and members of the proposed class are similarly
situated.

In her Memorandum Opinion and Order dated October 19, 2015
available at http://is.gd/E4yooqfrom Leagle.com, Judge Nelson
found that Plaintiffs have sufficiently pleaded their claims to
survive a motion for judgment on the pleadings. The Court granted
conditional certification of "All persons employed by Defendant as
a CCA in the United States, at any time from October 19, 2012 to
December 31, 2014, who used TimeQey for timekeeping purposes,
including each individual's (1) name, (2) last known mailing
address, (3) last known email address (whether work or personal),
(4) dates of employment, and (5) employee identification number."
The Court also found that the requested information may prove
necessary in order to facilitate notice of a potentially large
number of putative class members.

JASCOR INC: Sued Over Hepatitis Incident at McDonald's
------------------------------------------------------
David L. Shaw, writing for Finger Lakes Times, reported that the
attorney who represented plaintiffs in the 2005 cryptosporidium
bacteria outbreak at the Seneca Lake State Park sprayground has
filed a class-action complaint in connection with the hepatitis A
exposure involving a local McDonald's worker.

Paul Nunes of Rochester-based Underberg & Kessler filed the
litigation on behalf of Christopher Welch of Waterloo and "other
similarly situated" people who may have been exposed to hepatitis
A. That number could be at least a thousand, the complaint stated.

Jascor Inc., the independent operator of the Seneca Falls
McDonald's, is named as the defendant.

The lawsuit was filed in state Supreme Court of Seneca County in
Waterloo. No date has been set for arguments.

Nunes is being assisted by Seattle-based Marler Clark, a firm
that's been involved in class-action lawsuits involving
restaurants nationwide.

State and Seneca County Public Health officials announced that
customers who patronized the Mound Road McDonald's on Oct. 31 and
Nov. 2, 3, 5, 6 and 8 may have been exposed to hepatitis A from an
infected employee. All potentially affected people were advised to
get a vaccine shot.

Clinics were set up at Mynderse Academy, and shots are being
offered at the county office building.

The complaint alleges McDonald's was liable because it sold food
and drink that may have been contaminated with hepatitis A,
exposing customers to possible illness and forcing them to receive
a vaccine or take a blood test.

It also claims the restaurant failed to exercise proper care in
assuring that its employees obtained hepatitis A immunization and
for allowing one or more employee to work while infected with the
virus.

It does not ask for specific monetary damages at this time.
The litigation states the losses could be for lost wages; medical
and medical-related expenses; travel and travel-related expenses;
emotional distress; fear of harm and humiliation; physical pain;
physical injury; and other incidental and consequential damages
that could arise.

Jascor CEO Jim Coriale said he was unaware of the complaint.

JP MORGAN: Court Grants Motion to Dismiss "Keen" TILA Case
----------------------------------------------------------
District Judge William H. Orrick of the United States District
Court for Northern District of California granted Defendant's
motion to dismiss in the case captioned, KEVIN J. KEEN, et al.,
Plaintiffs, v. JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., Defendant, Case No. 15-
CV-10806-WHO (N.D. Cal.).

The instant case a putative class action asserting a single claim
for relief under the Truth in Lending Act (TILA), 15 U.S.C. Sec.
1601 et seq. Plaintiffs Kevin Keen, Tamra Keen, Curt Conyers, and
Kelly are co-borrowers on a mortgage loan from defendant JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A. (Chase). They accuse Chase of violating TILA by
failing to disclose to them the finance charge they would
hypothetically incur if Chase were to apply a particular method of
calculating interest on their loan. Plaintiffs allege that Chase
failed to comply with the requirement of TILA, making Chase liable
for statutory damages under 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1640(a). The Plaintiffs
bring the TILA claim on behalf of themselves and on behalf of a
putative class of California residents who obtained Fannie-Mae-
approved residential mortgage loans from Chase.

Chase makes two arguments in support of dismissal. It argues (1)
that plaintiffs' claim is not sufficiently ripe to qualify as a
justiciable case or controversy; and (2) that the claim fails on
the merits, because TILA did not require Chase to disclose to
plaintiffs the finance charge they would hypothetically incur
under the 365/360 method in the event that Chase were to apply it.

In his Order dated October 16, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/1kXaxgfrom Leagle.com, Judge Orrick concluded that
the First Amended Complaint "lacks a cognizable legal theory" and
must be dismissed. The Court found that TILA did not require Chase
to disclose to plaintiffs the finance charge they would incur
under an interest calculation method that Chase does not use and
does not intend to use.

LAWRENCE, KS: Attys Seek Class Status for Voter Registration Suit
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Nick Viviani, writing for WIBW, reported that attorneys who filed
a federal lawsuit seeking to overturn a Kansas voter registration
law are seeking to make the suit a class action.

Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach suspended the pending
registrations of more than 36,000 would-be Kansas voters earlier
this year until they provide proof of insurance. Former Lawrence
Rep. Paul Davis and William Lawrence, an attorney in Davis' law
firm, filed a suit Sept. 30 lawsuit seeking a preliminary
injunction.

They filed an amendment for class action status.

The Lawrence Journal-World reports the plaintiffs are two Douglas
County residents who applied to register to vote in December and
March. Kobach filed a motion saying the lawsuit was moot because
he had registered the two after pulling their birth certificates
from Kansas Vital Records.

LIBERTY MUTUAL: "Lafollette" Class Suit Goes to Trial
-----------------------------------------------------
District Judge Nanette K. Laughrey of the United States District
Court for the Western District of Missouri denied Defendant's
motion for summary judgment in the case captioned, ERIC LAFOLLETTE
and CAMILLE LAFOLLETTE, individually and on behalf of others
similarly situated, Plaintiffs, v. LIBERTY MUTUAL FIRE INSURANCE
COMPANY, Defendant, Case No. 2:14-CV-04147-NKL (W.D. Mo.).

Plaintiffs, Eric and Camille Lafollette, purchased a deluxe
homeowners' insurance policy from Defendant, Liberty Mutual Fire
Insurance Company.  Their policy has an endorsement for wind and
hail damage. The Lafollette's property was damaged by hail and
they sought payment from Liberty Mutual for that hail damage.

Liberty Mutual contends that because the Wind/Hail Endorsement
limits payments on losses that exceed the windstorm or hail
deductible, both ACV and RCV payments are subject to a deductible.
The Lafollettes argue that there is no deductible for an ACV
payment because the loss settlement provision of the Home
Protector Plus Endorsement controls and it provides for a
deductible only when the RCV option is exercised.

Liberty Mutual moved for summary judgment because it interprets
the Lafollettes' Policy to require the payment of a deductible
regardless of whether the insured opts for an ACV or RCV payment
for losses covered by the Policy.

In her Order dated October 19, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/iO6QQtfrom Leagle.com, Judge Laughrey concluded that
the Lafollettes have not challenged the amount of their premium or
the amount of the deductible where it applies and the Court has
not made any findings or conclusions regarding the propriety of
the means by which the insurance rates were determined or the
deductible structure. As the Court has merely interpreted the
Policy at issue and has not made any conclusions regarding the
propriety of the content of the Policy or the overarching rate
scheme, the filed rate doctrine is inapplicable.

MARCHEX INC: Gainey McKenna Files Securities Class Suit
-------------------------------------------------------
Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a class action lawsuit
has been filed in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York on behalf of all persons or entities
that purchased the securities of Marchex, Inc. ("Marchex" or the
"Company") (Nasdaq:MCHX) between March 19, 2014 through September
18, 2014 (the "Class Period"), alleging violations of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 against the Company and certain of
its officers (the "Complaint").

The Complaint alleges that Defendants issued materially false and
misleading statements to investors and/or failed to disclose that:
(1) Allstate sought to switch its business with Marchex to a
fixed-fee basis from payments made for each call; (2)
consequently, Marchex's revenue would be negatively impacted; and
(3) as a result of the foregoing, defendants' public statements
about Marchex's business, operations, and prospects were false and
misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
On September 18, 2014, the Company reported to investors the need
to lower future guidance as a result of a shift in one of its key
customer's payment model. The Company stated, in relevant part,
that it, "lower[ed] its 2014 call-driven revenue outlook . . .
[a]s a result of revised commitments from Allstate in the fourth
quarter." The Company further stated that Allstate sought to
switch its business with Marchex to a fixed-fee basis from
payments made for each call. On this news, shares of the Company
fell by $3.38 per share, or over 45%, to close at $4.01 per share
on September 18, 2014, on unusually heavy volume.

If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no
later than January 18, 2016. A lead plaintiff is a representative
party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the
litigation. If you wish to join the litigation, or to discuss your
rights or interests regarding this class action, please contact

MARCHEX INC: Jan. 18, 2016 Lead Plaintiff Bid Deadline
------------------------------------------------------
The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional
Corporation, announces that a class action lawsuit has been
commenced in the United States District Court for the Southern
District of New York on behalf of purchasers of Marchex, Inc.
(Nasdaq:MCHX) ("Marchex" or the "Company") securities during the
period between March 19, 2014 and September 18, 2014, inclusive
(the "Class Period").  Investors who wish to become proactively
involved in the litigation have until January 18, 2016 to seek
appointment as lead plaintiff.

If you have suffered a loss from investment in Marchex securities
purchased on or after March 19, 2014 and held through the
revelation of negative information during and/or at the end of the
Class Period, and would like to learn more about this lawsuit and
your ability to participate as a lead plaintiff, without cost or
obligation to you, please visit our website at
http://www.browerpiven.com/currentsecuritiescases.html. You may
also request more information by contacting Brower Piven either by
email at hoffman@browerpiven.com or by telephone at (410) 415-
6616.  No class has yet been certified in the above action.
Members of the Class will be represented by the lead plaintiff and
counsel chosen by the lead plaintiff.

If you wish to choose counsel to represent you and the Class, you
must apply to be appointed lead plaintiff and be selected by the
Court.  The lead plaintiff will direct the litigation and
participate in important decisions including whether to accept a
settlement for the Class in the action.  The lead plaintiff will
be selected from among applicants claiming the largest loss from
investment in Company securities during the Class Period.  Brower
Piven also encourages anyone with information regarding the
Company's conduct during the period in question to contact the
firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and
others.

The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the defendants'
failure to disclose during the Class Period that Allstate sought
to switch its business with Marchex to a fixed-fee basis from
payments made for each call such that Marchex's revenue would be
negatively impacted.  According to the complaint, upon revelation
of this information by the Company on September 18, 2014, the
value of Marchex shares declined substantially.

Attorneys at Brower Piven have extensive experience in litigating
securities and other class action cases and have been advocating
for the rights of shareholders since the 1980s.  If you choose to
retain counsel, you may retain Brower Piven without financial
obligation or cost to you, or you may retain other counsel of your
choice.  You need take no action at this time to be a member of
the class.

MERLE PHARMACY: Court Tosses Certain Claims in "Williams"
---------------------------------------------------------
Senior District Judge Joe Billy McDade of the United States
District Court for the Central District of Illinois granted in
part Defendants' motion to dismiss certain claims in the case
captioned, RHONDA S. WILLIAMS, on behalf of herself and other
similarly situated employees and all others who consent to become
Plaintiffs, Plaintiff, v. MERLE PHARMACY, INC., CENTRAL ILLINOIS
MEDICAL EQUIPMENT, INC., AND WILLIAM M. MARTIN, Defendants, Case
No. 1:14-CV-01575 (CKK)(C.D. Ill.).

Plaintiff was employed by Merle Pharmacy, Central Illinois
Medical, and/or Martin (Defendants) from on or about November 2004
until July 29, 2014, when she was fired. During all relevant
times, Plaintiff was an hourly employee. Neither she nor any of
Defendants' other employees were salaried employees exempt from
the overtime requirements of the FLSA or the IMWL. Plaintiff
alleges the termination was because she disclosed to the elderly
customer that Martin and Merle Pharmacy were not billing her
insurance for her medications and/or that the billing arrangement
between Martin and her attorney may be financially harmful to her.

Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint which consists of nine
counts alleging violations of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act
(Counts I and II), the Illinois Minimum Wage Law (Counts III and
IV), the Illinois Wage Payment and Collection Act (Counts V and
VI), Illinois common law of retaliatory discharge (Count VII), the
Illinois Whistleblower Act, (Count VIII), and the Illinois Adult
Protective Services Act (Count IX).

In the motion, Defendants assert that Counts II, V, VI, VII, VIII
and IX should be dismissed under Rule 12(b)(6) because Plaintiff
has failed to plead claims for which relief can be granted.

In his Order & Opinion dated October 19, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/YxfpNAfrom Leagle.com, Judge McDade found that
Counts II, IV, V, VII and VIII are dismissed with prejudice for
failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. The
Court found the issue of whether Plaintiff is a mandated reporter
wholly irrelevant and that Plaintiff is an employee protected by
the straightforward language of 320 Ill. Comp. Stat Sec.20/4.1.

METROPOLITAN LIFE: "Creighton" Race Bias Suit Goes to S.D.N.Y.
--------------------------------------------------------------
District Judge David R. Herndon of the United States District
Court for the Southern District of Illinois denied Defendant's
motion to dismiss Plaintiff's complaint in the case captioned,
MARCUS CREIGHTON, individually and on behalf of all others
similarly situated, Plaintiff, v. METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE
COMPANY, Defendant, Case No. 15-0959-DRH (S.D. Ill.).

Judge Herndon, instead, transferred the matter to the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York for
disposition.

On May 15, 2015, Creighton filed a two-count purported class
action complaint for race discrimination pursuant to 42 U.S.C.
Sec. 1981 against MetLife, Inc., MetLife Securities, Inc., and
Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in the Northern District of
Illinois. Count I is for race discrimination and Count II is for
retaliation. Creighton seeks to represent the following class:

     "African Americans who worked for Defendants as FSRs and who
were subjected to discrimination by Defendants due to their race."
On August 27, 2015, District Judge Samuel Der-Yeghiayan granted in
part Metropolitan's motion to transfer and transferred this case
to the Southern District of Illinois pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec.
1404(a).

On September 3, 2015, Metropolitan filed the motion to dismiss for
lack of jurisdiction or in the alternative, transfer venue. In
opposition, Creighton filed a motion to strike and response to
defendant's second motion to dismiss plaintiff's complaint or, in
the alternative, transfer venue.

In his Memorandum and Order dated October 18, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/QdjYuVfrom Leagle.com, Judge Herndon concluded that
the previous transfer order was based on misinformation. The Court
found that it would serve the convenience of the parties and
witnesses if the matter be transferred in the Southern District of
New York.

RP INC.: "McCoy" Class Suit Wins Conditional Certification
----------------------------------------------------------
District Judge Patrick Michael Duffy of the United States District
Court for the District of South California granted in part
Plaintiff's Motion to Conditionally Certify a class, denied
Defendants' Motion to Strike, and denied Plaintiff's Motion to
Equitably Toll the Statute of Limitations in the case captioned,
Tyler McCoy, on behalf of himself and all others similarly
situated, Plaintiff, v. RP, Inc. d/b/a/ Kickin' Chicken; RPM Mt.
Pleasant, Inc.; RPM West Ashley, Inc.; RPM James Island, Inc.; RPM
Summerville, Inc.; R. David Miller, individually; William G.
"Chip" Roberts, III, individually; and Robert Perry, individually,
Defendants, Case No. 2:14-CV-3171-PMD (D. S.C.).

On August 7, 2014, Plaintiff commenced the action on behalf of
himself and others similarly situated, seeking unpaid minimum
wages and unpaid overtime wages pursuant to the FLSA. Plaintiff is
a former employee of RP, Inc., and seeks recovery from all
Defendants. Plaintiff primarily alleges that Defendants used tip
pools that violated the FLSA. Specifically, Plaintiff asserts that
Defendants paid some of their employees an hourly wage lower than
the statutory minimum wage using the FLSA's Tip Credit provision,
29 U.S.C. Sec. 203(m).

In the motion, Plaintiff moves to conditionally certify a Proposed
Class of "Any individual employed at Kickin' Chicken (Downtown
Charleston; James Island; Mt. Pleasant; West Ashley; or
Summerville) at any time since who at any time was paid an hourly
rate less than the statutory minimum wage of Seven and 25/100
dollars ($7.25) per hour and either contributed money to a tip
pool or received money from a tip pool. Defendants filed a Motion
to Strike portions of Plaintiff's affidavit and Plaintiff filed a
Motion for Equitable Tolling.

In his Order dated October 19, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/POfGBhfrom Leagle.com, Judge Duffy concluded that
equitable tolling is not warranted because Plaintiff has made no
showing of an extraordinary circumstance that would justify
equitable tolling, Defendants' argument that Plaintiffs have
personal knowledge failed. The Court conditionally certified
Plaintiff's Proposed Class with some of the modifications
requested by Defendants and defined a class of "All Kickin'
Chicken servers at each location who were paid an hourly rate less
than the statutory minimum wage of Seven and 25/100 dollars
($7.25) per hour at any time since October 19, 2012."

SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS: Magistrate Judge's Order in "Avram" Upheld
---------------------------------------------------------------
District Judge Kevin McNulty of the United States District Court
for the District of New Jersey affirmed Magistrate Judge Clark's
July 24, 2015 in the case captioned, LYNNE AVRAM, on behalf of
herself and all others similarly situated, Plaintiff, v. SAMSUNG
ELECTRONICS AMERICA, INC. and LOWE'S HOME CENTERS, INC.,
Defendants, Case No. 11-6973(KM)(JBC)(D.N.J.).

Plaintiff Lynne Avram brought this putative class action against
Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (Samsung) and Lowe's Home
Centers, Inc. (Lowe's) seeking damages for violations of the
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, breach of an express warranty, breach
of the implied warranty of merchantability, unjust enrichment and
violation of the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act, relating to the
marketing and sale of Samsung RF26VAB refrigerators as ENERGY STAR
compliant.

Avram maintains that appliances with the ENERGY STAR logo are sold
for higher prices than non-ENERGY STAR appliances with the
inherent promise that the buyer will, over time, recoup the cost
of the upfront surcharge (and perhaps save even more money)
because of lower energy bills.

Magistrate Judge Clark conducted a conference call with the
parties on July 24, 2015. Following that call, Magistrate Judge
Clark issued a letter order denying Avram's request for discovery
on the so-called B Goods.

On appeal, Avram argues that information relating to the B Goods
is relevant to the determination of damages because it shows the
decrease in the value of the refrigerators without the ENERGY STAR
label. Magistrate Judge Clark, according to Avram, based his
decision on an erroneous factual finding that the refrigerators
were taken off the shelves due to factors other than the ENERGY
STAR label. Avram contends that she is prejudiced by the lack of
discovery on the B Goods because one avenue of analyzing damages
has been foreclosed.

In his Order and Opinion dated October 20, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/BA6GM4from Leagle.com, Judge McNulty found that
Magistrate Judge Clark was within his discretion to conclude that
the requested B Goods information would be at best marginally
relevant; at worst, it would be irrelevant or even misleading as
to the economic value of the ENERGY STAR label. That finding is
neither clearly erroneous nor contrary to law, nor is it an abuse
of discretion.

ST. JOSEPH'S HEALTHCARE: Dismissal of "Chalfin" Suit Upheld
-----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Thomas Hardiman of the United States Court of Appeals, Third
Circuit affirmed the dismissal of the complaint in the case
captioned, MATTHEW CHALFIN, M.D.; VENUS COBA, M.D.; CLIFTON COLBY
DAVIS, M.D.; PAMELA D'AMATO, M.D.; GREG PAKONIS, M.D.; ANDRE
ROBONSON; KIRAN KUNA, M.D., and all others similarly situated,
Appellants, v. ST. JOSEPH'S HEALTHCARE SYSTEM, Case No. 14-4623
(3rd Cir.).

Plaintiffs were medical residents at St. Joseph's Regional Medical
Center between 2003 and 2006. St. Joseph's collected the employee
portion of the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) taxes
from Plaintiffs and remitted them to the IRS. In February 2014,
Plaintiffs brought suit in the Superior Court of New Jersey,
alleging that St. Joseph's acted negligently by failing to submit
the paperwork they needed to receive refunds from the IRS. In
March 2014, St. Joseph's removed the action to federal court
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1441. Plaintiffs moved to remand to
state court, while St. Joseph's moved to dismiss Plaintiffs'
complaint.

Adopting the report and recommendation of the Magistrate Judge,
the District Court granted St. Joseph's motion to dismiss,
concluding that Plaintiffs' suit was essentially a claim for a tax
refund.  As such, Plaintiffs were required by Sec. 7422(a) to
exhaust their administrative remedies, and because they failed to
do so, the District Court dismissed the complaint. Likewise, the
District Court denied Plaintiffs' motion to remand the case to
state court because their claim arose under federal law.

On appeal, Plaintiffs argued that the District Court erred when it
dismissed the complaint for negligent failure to obtain tax
refunds.

In the Opinion dated October 21, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/uMqaqLfrom Leagle.com, Judge Hardiman concluded that
Plaintiffs' failure to file a claim with the IRS for a refund
means that they have failed to exhaust their administrative
remedies and that removal to federal court was proper because
Plaintiffs' claims were within the ambit of Sec. 7422.

THINKDIRECT MARKETING: Court Narrows "Heidbrink" FLSA Suit
----------------------------------------------------------
District Judge James S. Moody, Jr. of the United States District
Court for the Middle District of Florida grants in part
Defendants' motion for summary judgment in the case captioned,
ELIZABETH HEIDBRINK and L. ROXANA MARION, on behalf of themselves
and all others similarly situated, Plaintiffs, v. THINKDIRECT
MARKETING GROUP, INC., et al., Defendants, Case No. 8:14-CV-1232-
T-30AEP (M.D. Fla.).

On April 1, 2014, the case was filed in state court as a purported
collective action under the Fair Labor Standards Act against
Defendants ThinkDirect Marketing Group, Inc., Thomas H. Ripley,
Dennis Cahill, Patrick Dall, and Dave Macey to recover unpaid
overtime wages and liquidated damages.

Plaintiffs filed the complaint on January 14, 2015, asserting the
following claims for relief: (1) violation of the Magnuson-Moss
Warranty Act; (2) violation of the Consumers Legal Remedies Act,
California Civil Code Sec. 1750, et seq.; (3) deceptive
advertising, pursuant to California Business & Professions Code
Sec. 17500, et seq.; (4) unfair business practices, pursuant to
California Business and Professions Code Sec. 17200 et seq.; (5)
deceptive advertising, pursuant to Florida Statute Sec. 501.201,
et seq.; (6) breach of express warranty.

In the motion, With respect to Heidbrink, ThinkDirect argues that
it is entitled to summary judgment on her overtime claims because
she failed to participate in this litigation as follows: (1) she
did not timely file her Court-mandated interrogatories and (2) she
failed to appear for her deposition. In her response, Heidbrink
states that her counsel volunteered to reschedule her deposition
and that she belatedly served her interrogatory answers on
Plaintiff's counsel but neglected to file them with the Court. She
maintains that these failures were not intentional or made in bad
faith and that any prejudice to Defendants can easily be cured
prior to trial.

In his Order dated November 17, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/D3qetIfrom Leagle.com, Judge Moody, Jr. held that
there is no reason to employ the drastic sanction of dismissing
Heidbrink's claims or granting summary judgment against her for
failure to participate in the litigation and as to Plaintiffs'
overtime claims fail as a matter of law. The Court granted only to
the extent that individual Defendants Thomas H. Ripley, Dennis
Cahill, and Dave Macey are entitled to judgment as a matter of
law.

UTOPIA HOME: Must Defend Against "Cowell" FLSA Class Suit
---------------------------------------------------------
District Judge Leonard D. Wexler of the United States District
Court for the Eastern District of New York denied Defendant's
motion to dismiss and granted Defendant's motion to strike in the
case captioned, SHENITHIA COWELL, individually and on behalf of
all similarly situated individuals, Plaintiff, v. UTOPIA HOME
CARE, INC., Defendant, Case No. CV-14-0736 (E.D.N.Y.).

Plaintiff Shenithia Cowell brings the action, individually and on
behalf of others similarly situated, against Defendant Utopia Home
Care, Inc. for failure to pay proper wages owed under Fair Labor
Standards Act 29 U.S.C. Sec. 201, et seq. and under New York law,
specifically the New York Payment of Wages, Sec. 190, et seq., New
York Minimum Wage Act, Sec. 650, et seq., and 12 N.Y.C.R.R. Sec.
142, et seq.  Plaintiff alleges she regularly worked more than 40
hours per week in the home of Utopia's clients providing domestic
services.

Plaintiff asserts claims under the FLSA, NYMWA and NYPOW for
failure to pay overtime and for failure to compensate Plaintiff
for her pre-shift work, and for failure to keep accurate records.
Plaintiff also asserts a claim for breach of contract for
Defendant's failure to pay Plaintiff her hourly rate for
uncompensated pre-shift work and a breach of good faith and fair
dealing for not keeping proper records of Plaintiffs work.

In the motion, Defendant argues that the breach of contract claim
for her unpaid time is not permitted under the FLSA or New York
wage laws, and even if not dismissed on the merits, should be
referred to state court since it raises a novel question.
Defendant also moves to strike paragraphs 4, 27 and 28 from
Plaintiffs complaint, arguing they contain inflammatory,
extraneous and immaterial references not appropriate for a
complaint.

In his Memorandum and Order dated November 16, 2015 available at
http://is.gd/tbI5unfrom Leagle.com, Judge Wexler declines to
dismiss the FLSA claims finding that Plaintiff's allegations cited
above sufficiently state a claim for breach of contract for unpaid
wages. As to the motion to strike, the Court agreed that
references to other litigations against the Defendant are
"immaterial, impertinent or scandalous" and inappropriate in a
complaint, and are not necessary to allege wilfullness.

The Court directed the Plaintiffs to file a third amended
complaint within two weeks. Counsel are directed to Magistrate
Judge Steven Locke to complete discovery.
