ALTRU HEALTH: Bid to Dismiss Partly Granted in Rosenkranz Suit
--------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as Jana R. Rosenkranz, Joan
Mondry, and Ramona Driscoll, individually and on behalf of all
others similarly situated, v. Altru Health System, the Altru Health
System Retirement Committee, and John Does 1-20, Case No.
3:20-cv-00168-PDW-ARS (D.N.D.), the Hon. Judge Peter D. Welte
entered an order granting in part and denying in part the
Defendants' motion to dismiss  as follows:

   -- The Court grants Defendants' motion to dismiss the
      collective trust,  investment management fees, and
      performance claims under Plaintiffs' first claim for
      relief against the Committee but denies the motion as to
      Plaintiffs' remaining allegations (regarding lower-cost
      class share and recordkeeping fees) under Plaintiffs'
      first claim for relief.

   -- Because the second claim for relief, as asserted against
      Altru, is derivative of the first claim, the Court denies
      Defendants' motion as the second claim for relief.

Altru Health is an American healthcare provider headquartered in
Grand Forks, North Dakota. Altru is a nonprofit organization that
serves a region with a population of roughly 225,000.

Paradocs Event Medical Services; Movants and Defendants, Case No.
tex-59617314 (Tex. Sup. Ct., Judicial Panel, Multidistrict
Litigation, Dec. 1, 2021), files joint agreed motion for transfer
to pretrial court and immediate stay.

The Plaintiffs and principal Defendants in the hundreds of lawsuits
involving the recent Astroworld Festival1 (collectively, "Movants")
move pursuant to sections 74.161-.164 of the Texas Government Code
and Texas Rule of Judicial Administration 13 for the transfer of
related actions already filed, as well as tag-along actions, to a
pretrial court for consolidated and coordinated pretrial
proceedings. The parties have agreed to the transfer.

Movants are aware of 275 lawsuits with more than 1,250 plaintiffs
that have been filed in each of the 24 different district courts in
Harris County. Nearly all of the petitions allege injuries and/or
deaths as a result of an incident during a live performance by
musician Travis Scott at the Astroworld Festival. The lawsuits
involve common procedural questions and legal issues. Upon
information and belief including conversations with Plaintiffs'
counsel, Movants expect that the filing of new lawsuits will
continue. This type of litigation is exactly what the Texas MDL
process is designed to address. Transfer of all of these lawsuits
to a single pretrial judge for consolidated and coordinated
pretrial proceedings will eliminate duplicative discovery, conserve
resources of the judiciary, avoid conflicting legal rulings and
scheduling, and otherwise promote the just and efficient conduct of
all actions.[BN]

BERKELEY LIGHTS: Faces Ng Suit Over Alleged Drop in Share Price
---------------------------------------------------------------
VICTOR J. NG, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly
Situated, Plaintiff v. BERKELEY LIGHTS, INC., ERIC D. HOBBS, SHAUN
M. HOLT and KURT WOOD, Defendants, Case No. 3:21-cv-09497 (N.D.
Cal., December 8, 2021) is a securities class action on behalf of
all purchasers of Berkeley Lights common stock between July 17,
2020 and September 14, 2021, inclusive, seeking to pursue remedies
against Berkeley Lights and certain of the Company's current and
former senior executives under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

According to the complaint, the Defendants made false and
misleading statements and engaged in a scheme to deceive the market
and a course of conduct that artificially inflated the price of
Berkeley Lights common stock and operated as a fraud or deceit on
Class Period purchasers of Berkeley Lights common stock by
misrepresenting the value of the Company's business and prospects
by concealing the significant defects in its underwriting and due
diligence practices and deficiencies in its commercial credit
portfolio and related securitized assets. As Defendants'
misrepresentations and fraudulent conduct became apparent to the
market, the price of the Company's stock fell precipitously as the
prior artificial inflation came out of the stock's price. As a
result of their purchases of Berkeley Lights common stock during
the Class Period, Plaintiff and other members of the Class suffered
economic loss, i.e., damages, under the federal securities laws.

Berkeley Lights, Inc. operates as a biotechnology company. The
Company provides technology solutions for single cell manipulation
for biopharma, diagnostics, and life science research. Berkeley
Lights serves customers worldwide.[BN]

BOSTON, MA: Norkunas Appeals Ruling in Muehe ADA Class Suit
-----------------------------------------------------------
Interested Party and Class Member WILLIAM NORKUNAS filed an appeal
from a court ruling entered in the lawsuit entitled MICHAEL MUEHE,
ELAINE HAMILTON, CRYSTAL EVANS, and COLLEEN FLANAGAN v. CITY OF
BOSTON, Civil Action No. 21-11080-RGS, in the U.S. District Court
for the District of Massachusetts, Boston.

In 2017, the Plaintiffs initiated a public records request seeking
documentation regarding the City's street resurfacing and curb ramp
maintenance program. The following year, after comparing the public
records they received with images on Google Street View and the
City's Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) transition plan, the
Plaintiffs presented a demand letter to the City claiming
violations of the ADA.

The Plaintiffs proposed, and the City eventually agreed, that the
parties undertake a collaborative approach to achieving a solution
rather than engaging in protracted litigation. The parties
conducted structured negotiations over the next three years and
reached a comprehensive settlement agreement on June 30, 2021. The
same day, the Plaintiffs filed the instant Complaint in the Court.

The Court granted preliminary approval of the settlement on July
12, 2021, and final approval on Oct. 19, 2021. Pursuant to the
settlement, the City must "install or remediate an average of 1,630
curb ramps per year until a compliant curb ramp exists at every
corner of the pedestrian right of way. Based on the parties' best
estimates, this will likely occur by the end of 2030." The
Plaintiffs, as the prevailing party in the case, now seek
attorney's fees, costs, and expenses incurred in bringing about the
settlement.

As reported in the Class Action Reporter on November 22, 2021,
Judge Richard G. Stearns of the District of Massachusetts granted
the Plaintiffs' motion for attorney's fees, costs, and expenses,
but reduced the award to $674,487.38 in attorney's fees and
$5,533.18 in costs and expenses.

Mr. Norkunas now seeks a review of the order.

The appellate case is captioned as Norkunas, et al. v. Boston, MA,
Case No. 21-1981, in the United States Court of Appeals for the
First Circuit, filed on December 9, 2021.

The briefing schedule in the Appellate Case states that docketing
statement, transcript report/order form, and appearance form are
due on December 27, 2021.[BN]

GUIDANT GLOBAL: Renewed Bid to Certify Class Partly Granted
-----------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as  WILLIAM WARD,
INDIVIDUALLY AND FOR OTHERS SIMILARLY SITUATED, v. GUIDANT GLOBAL
INC. D/B/A BARTECH GROUP INC., ET AL., Case No.
2:20-cv-10283-GAD-APP (E.D. Mich.), the Hon. Judge Gershwin A.
Drain entered an order granting in part and denying in part the
Plaintiff's renewed motion to certify class and authorize notice.

The Court further ordered that the parties work together to draft a
mutually acceptable Notice to be sent to class members advising
them of this lawsuit and their opt-in/opt-out rights. The parties
should work together and submit a proposed Order for such purpose.
The proposed Notice shall be submitted to the Court for approval
within one week of the issuance of this Opinion and Order. If the
parties are unable to come to an agreement, each side will submit
their proposed Notice to the Court. Once the Court approves a
Notice, it will issue an order directing issuance of the notice to
class members, the Court adds.

On February 4, 2020, Plaintiff William Ward filed the instant
collective action under the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA") for
unpaid overtime against Defendant Guidant. He subsequently amended
his Complaint to add as a Defendant Corporate Employment Resources.


According to the complaint, the Defendant Bartech Staffing, a
staffing agency, employed Plaintiff William Ward as a temporary
worker. Bartech Staffing placed Plaintiff with a client, NextEra
Energy, Inc., using a managed servicesa provider ("MSP") named
Allegis Global Solutions.

The Plaintiff worked in Nebraska as a Construction Manager. His
assignment at NextEra began on May 13, 2017 and concluded on
December 3, 2017. Per his offer letter, Plaintiff's "starting
hourly wage [was] $67.00." Both NextEra and Bartech Staffing
consider the Construction Manager position exempt from overtime
payments under the FLSA.  Thus, defendants concede that "throughout
his assignment, Ward was paid $67/hour, including any hours worked
over 40 in a given week.".

The Plaintiff brings this action on behalf of himself and other
similarly situated workers who were paid pursuant to Bartech's
"straight time for overtime" practice. He alleges Bartech staffs
the Putative Class Members with its clients in the renewable
energy, engineering, information technology, and manufacturing
sectors and pays them on an hourly basis with no overtime
compensation.

Ward claims Bartech's failure to pay overtime to the Putative Class
Members "was, and is, a willful violation of the FLSA." He seeks to
recover unpaid overtime and other damages due to him and the
Putative Class Members.

HOLIDAY HOSPITALITY: PH Lodging Sues Over Anticompetitive Scheme
----------------------------------------------------------------
PH Lodging Tomball, LLC, a Texas Limited Liability Company, on
behalf of itself and a class of similarly situated entities v.
HOLIDAY HOSPITALITY FRANCHISING, LLC; SIX CONTINENTS HOTELS, INC.
d/b/a INTERCONTINENTAL HOTELS GROUP; and IHG OWNERS ASSOCIATION,
INC.; Case No. 1:21-cv-05702-SDG (S.D. Tex., Dec. 10, 2021), seeks
to put an end to IHG/HHF's unlawful, abusive, fraudulent,
anticompetitive and unconscionable practices designed solely to
benefit and to enrich IHG/HHF's shareholders and to do so at the
expense and to the detriment of Plaintiff and the class members,
namely, similarly situated franchisees.

The Defendants have and continue to engage in unconscionable,
fraudulent, unlawful, anticompetitive and discriminatory business
practices in connection with the IHG Hotel franchise system. At the
heart of IHG/HHF's unlawful scheme is its requirement that its
franchisees use certain mandated vendors and suppliers for the
purchase of goods and services necessary to run a hotel. IHG/HHF's
forced exclusive use of certain chosen vendors and suppliers
imposes well above-market procurement costs on franchisees which
include, but are not limited to, those associated with its onerous
and exorbitant Property Improvement Plan ("PIP").

Under the guise of improving the franchisees' hotels to maintain
"brand standards," IHG/HHF forces its franchisees to frequently
undertake expensive renovations, remodeling and construction as
part of the PIP, and in so doing manipulates and shortens the
warranty periods on mandated products the franchisees must
purchase, then disingenuously uses this to justify PIP requirements
as purportedly necessary to meet "brand standards" when, in
reality, IHG/HHF's sole purpose is to maximize its kickbacks and
unjustifiably run up costs on their franchisees in bad faith.

IHG/HHF deceitfully represent to their franchisees that they select
vendors with the laudable goal of using the franchisees' collective
bargaining power to secure a group discount and to ensure adequate
quality and supply of products and services, and refer to these
procurement programs as the "IHG Marketplace." In fact, however,
IHG/HHF's primary goal in negotiating with vendors has little to
nothing to do with the best interests of franchisees but rather is
to secure the largest possible kickback for itself, which vendors
finance through the above-market rates charged to franchisees in
collusion with IHG/HHF.

Furthermore, the above-market priced products which IHG/HHF forces
franchisees to purchase through the IHG Marketplace and related
programs is overwhelmingly of inferior quality. These low-quality
"IHG Approved" purchases are forced upon franchisees and
disingenuously characterized as meeting supposed brand standards of
quality, when in truth the sole purpose is to maximize kickbacks
for IHG/HHF and unjustifiably increase costs on their franchisees
in bad faith. IHG/HHF have each netted tens of millions of
ill-gotten dollars from this fraudulent kickback scheme, says the
complaint.

The Plaintiff PH LODGING TOMBALL, LLC is a franchisee that owns and
operates one or more hotels that bear a HHF brand mark pursuant to
an HHF license agreement.

IHG owns Defendant Holiday Hospitality Franchising, LLC, its
affiliate which offers and sells Holiday Inn brand franchises
including, but not limited to, Holiday Inn, Holiday Inn Express and
Holiday Inn Resort.[BN]

HOP ENERGY: Faces Melville Suit Over Unfair Business Practices
--------------------------------------------------------------
RYAN MELVILLE, on behalf of himself and all others similarly
situated, Plaintiff v. HOP ENERGY, LLC, Defendant, Case No.
7:21-cv-10406 (S.D.N.Y., December 6, 2021) is a consumer protection
action arising from HOP Energy's breach of contract and bad faith
pricing practices, causing tens of thousands of consumers to pay
considerably more than they bargained for to obtain home heating
oil.

According to the complaint, HOP Energy contracted with Plaintiff
and the Class to sell its heating oil at the "Promotional
Prevailing Retail Price for First Year Customers for home heating
oil that is in effect at the time of delivery." Before filing this
action, Plaintiff commissioned an initial yet detailed analysis
from top-tier energy consulting experts regarding the prevailing
retail price HOP Energy should have charged Plaintiff. This
analysis demonstrates that HOP Energy categorically failed to
charge the "Prevailing Retail Price," much less provide the
meaningful discounts afforded by the contract terms "Promotional"
and "for First Year Customers." Because the facts do and will
continue to demonstrate that Defendant took advantage of consumers'
lack of sophistication, inertia, and other widely known frailties
in consumer-decision making, HOP Energy breached both the clear
language of its customer contract and the implied covenant of good
faith and fair dealing, says the suit.

With this class action, Plaintiff and the Class seek to level the
playing field and ensure that companies like HOP Energy allegedly
engage in fair and upright business practices.[BN]

Plaintiff Melville signed a home heating oil contract for a
"capped-price" plan with a HOP Energy brand called DDLC Energy.

HOP Energy, LLC provides petroleum products. The Company offers
heating oil, propane, diesel, and gasoline, as well as sells and
installs HVAC products.[BN]

HUNTER WARFIELD INC: Atwell Slams Erroneous Collection Letter
-------------------------------------------------------------
Nykeba Atwell, on behalf of herself and all others similarly
situated, Plaintiffs, v. Hunter Warfield, Inc., Defendant, Case No.
21-cv-02819, (M.D. Fla., December 3, 2021), seeks statutory damages
and any other available legal or equitable remedies for violations
of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Florida Consumer
Collection Practices Act.

Atwell allegedly entered into residential leases in Florida and
Hunter Warfield is a debt collector that companies have hired to
collect allegedly overdue on those leases. Hunter Warfield has
allegedly mailed them and other former tenants collection letters
demanding they pay not only debts allegedly due, but also interest
on those debts.

Sometime prior to June 18, 2021, Atwell entered into a lease for a
residential apartment. After she moved out of the apartment, the
landlord contended that she still owed an unpaid balance of
$964.92. Atwell contends that Hunter Warfield did not state whether
the interest charges may be disputed or what provision of the
tenant lease gives rise to them. [BN]

IRONSHORE INDEMNITY: Wins Bid to Dismiss Knox Class Action
-----------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as TESSA KNOX, PAMELA KASSEN,
LAURENTINA CHAPARRO, HILLARY CRANDLE, JOY FUSARO, ALYSSA HICKEY,
MARGRET HOLCOMB, MICHELLE ORTIZ, TRIPTI PANDEY, WIJDAN SHOUBAKI,
JENA TOBAK, CHRISTINA TORRES, and ARISSIA TOSSETTI, v. IRONSHORE
INDEMNITY INC., Case No. 1:21-cv-06321-DLC (S.D.N.Y.), the Hon.
Judge Denise Cote entered an order as follows:

   -- Because the Prior Acts Exclusion means that the conduct
      underlying the Judgment is not covered by the insurance
      policy that Ironshore issued to Varvatos, Ironshore's
      motion to dismiss is granted.

   -- The plaintiffs' motions for partial summary judgment and
      for class certification are denied as moot.

   -- The Clerk of Court shall enter judgment for Ironshore and
      close this case.

In this insurance coverage dispute, the plaintiffs, former
employees of John Varvatos Enterprises, Inc., sue Ironshore
Indemnity Inc., Varvatos' insurer, to collect a judgment awarded to
them and a class of former Varvatos employees in another litigation
in this District (the "Underlying Litigation").

Ironshore has moved to dismiss, claiming that the plaintiffs'
claims are barred by the res judicata effect of a prior action
(Knox I) and that they in any event fail to state a claim because
the express terms of the insurance policy Ironshore issued to
Varvatos mean that Varvatos is not covered for the conduct that
resulted in the Judgment.

The plaintiffs have moved to certify a class of Varvatos employees
who they claim are entitled to an award from Ironshore and for
summary judgment, contending that Ironshore is, as a matter of law,
obligated to pay the Judgment.  Because the plain terms of the
policy issued by Ironshore make clear that the conduct leading to
the Judgment is excluded from coverage under the policy,
Ironshore's motion to dismiss is granted.

This action is not the first case in which this group of
plaintiffs, or a subset, have sought to collect the Judgment from
Ironshore. In 2020, plaintiffs Knox and Kassen brought Knox I, and
on January 26, 2021, this Court granted Ironshore's motion to
dismiss that case. Knox v. Ironshore Indemnity Inc. (Knox I), Case
No. 20cv4401 (DLC), 2021 WL 256948 (S.D.N.Y. Jan. 26, 2021).

The facts set forth in this Opinion are derived from this Court's
Opinion granting Ironshore's motion to dismiss Knox I, which is
incorporated by reference, as well as the plaintiffs' complaint,
documents annexed to the complaint and incorporated by reference,
and other documents properly considered in conjunction with the
cross-motions to dismiss and for summary judgment.

JUUL LABS: Faces Northport Suit Over Youth's E-Cigarette Addiction
------------------------------------------------------------------
NORTHPORT PUBLIC SCHOOLS, on behalf of itself and all others
similarly situated, Plaintiff v. JUUL LABS, INC. F/K/A PAX LABS,
INC.; JAMES MONSEES; ADAM BOWEN; NICHOLAS PRITZKER; HOYOUNG HUH;
RIAZ VALANI; ALTRIA GROUP, INC.; ALTRIA CLIENT SERVICES LLC; ALTRIA
GROUP DISTRIBUTION COMPANY; and PHILIP MORRIS USA, INC.,
Defendants, Case No. 3:21-cv-09568 (N.D. Cal., December 10, 2021)
is a class action against the Defendants for negligence, gross
negligence, and violations of Public Nuisance Law and the Racketeer
Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.

According to the complaint, the Defendants used three tactics to
maintain market dominance in the cigarette industry: (1) product
design to maximize addiction, (2) mass deception, and (3) targeting
of youth. Defendants JUUL Labs and Adam Bowen designed an
e-cigarette device allegedly intended to create and sustain
addiction, but without the stigma associated with cigarettes and
promoted them to vulnerable young population. JUUL Labs and other
Defendants developed and implemented a marketing scheme to mislead
users into believing that JUUL products contained less nicotine
than they actually do and were healthy and safe. The Defendants
enticed newcomers to nicotine with kid-friendly flavors without
ensuring the flavoring additives were safe for inhalation. The
Defendants targeted the youth market by placing vaporized campaigns
on youth-oriented websites and media and using influencers and
affiliates to amplify their message to a teenage audience. The
Defendants have successfully caused more young people to start
using e-cigarettes, creating a youth e-cigarette epidemic and
public health crisis, says the suit.

offices located at 104 Wing Street in Northport, Michigan.

JUUL Labs, Inc., formerly known as Pax Labs, Inc., is an American

risks associated to the devices. After, and as a result of using

KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS: Paulk Suit Moved From N.D. Fla. to W.D. Pa.
----------------------------------------------------------------
The case styled JESSIE PAULK, individually and on behalf of all
others similarly situated v. KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.; PHILIPS
NORTH AMERICA LLC; PHILIPS HOLDING USA, INC.; PHILIPS RS NORTH
AMERICA LLC, Case No. 4:21-cv-00466, was transferred from the U.S.
District Court for the Northern District of Florida to the U.S.
District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania on December
10, 2021.

The Clerk of Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania
assigned Case No. 2:21-cv-01802-JFC to the proceeding.

The case arises from the Defendants' alleged strict products
liability, negligent design, negligent failure to warn, negligent
manufacturing, negligence/gross negligence, negligent
misrepresentation, fraud, fraudulent concealment, civil conspiracy,
unjust enrichment, breach of express warranties, breach of the
implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose, breach of the
implied warranty of merchantability, punitive damages, and
violation of the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act.

According to the complaint, the Defendants manufactured and sold
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) and BiLevel Positive
Airway Pressure (BiLevel PAP) devices and mechanical ventilators
for sleep and home respiratory care, which contain polyester-based
polyurethane sound abatement foam (PE-PUR Foam). The Defendants
recalled CPAP and BiLevel PAP devices and mechanical ventilators
containing PE-PUR Foam because they determined that (a) the PE-PUR
Foam was at risk for degradation into particles that may enter the
devices' pathway and be ingested or inhaled by users, and (b) the
PE-PUR Foam may off-gas certain chemicals during operation health
risks associated to the devices. As a result of the health risks
associated with continued use of these devices and the recall, the
Plaintiff's CPAP device is now worthless. The Plaintiff will be
forced to replace the device at considerable cost when a
replacement is available, added the suit.

LABX MEDIA: Gibson Sues Over Unlawful Exchange of Information
-------------------------------------------------------------
Courtney Gibson, individually and on behalf of all others similarly
situated v. LABX MEDIA GROUP, INC., Case No. 1:21-cv-01014-HYJ-PJG
(W.D. Mich., Dec. 2, 2021), is brought against the Defendant who
rented, exchanged, and/or otherwise disclosed detailed information
about the Plaintiff's "The Scientist" magazine subscription to data
aggregators, data appenders, data cooperatives, and list brokers,
among others, which in turn disclosed her information to aggressive
advertisers, political organizations, and non-profit companies, in
violation of Michigan's Preservation of Personal Privacy Act.

According to the complaint, to supplement its revenues, LMG rents,
exchanges, or otherwise discloses its customers'
information--including their full names, titles of publications
subscribed to, and home addresses (collectively "Personal Reading
Information"), as well as myriad other categories of individualized
data and demographic information such as area of work, job title,
and education background -- to data aggregators, data appenders,
data cooperatives, and other third parties without the written
consent of its customers. By renting, exchanging, or otherwise
disclosing -- rather than selling -- its customers' Personal
Reading Information, LMG is able to disclose the information time
and time again to countless third parties.

LMG's alleged disclosure of Personal Reading Information and other
individualized information is not only unlawful, but also dangerous
because it allows for the targeting of particular members of
society. For example, anyone could buy a customer list provided by
LMG that contains the names and addresses of all lab technicians
who have a college degree, live in Michigan, and subscribe to "The
Scientist" magazine. Such a list is available for sale on the open
market for approximately $235.00 per thousand subscribers listed.
While LMG profits handsomely from the unauthorized rental,
exchange, and/or disclosure of its customers' Personal Reading
Information and other individualized information, it does so at the
expense of its customers' statutory privacy rights (afforded by the
PPPA) because LMG does not obtain its customers' written consent
prior to disclosing their Personal Reading Information.

As a result, the Plaintiff has received a barrage of unwanted junk
mail. By renting, exchanging, and/or otherwise disclosing
Plaintiff's Personal Reading Information during the relevant
pre-July 30, 2016 time period, LMG violated the PPPA, says the

LEDGER SAS: Baton Seeks 9th Cir. Review in Contract Suit Dismissal
------------------------------------------------------------------
Plaintiffs Edward Baton, et al., filed an appeal from a court
ruling entered in the lawsuit entitled EDWARD BATON, et al.,
Plaintiffs v. LEDGER SAS, et al., Defendants, Case No.
21-cv-02470-EMC, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern
District of California, San Francisco.

The Plaintiffs bring a putative class action seeking redress for
harms they allegedly suffered stemming from a data breach exposing
over 270,000 pieces of personally identifiable information,
including customer names, email addresses, postal addresses and
telephone numbers.

The Plaintiffs are customers of Defendant Ledger SAS ("Ledger"), a
French company based in Paris that sells hardware wallets to allow
customers to manage cryptocurrency. Ledger sells its hardware
wallets--the Ledger Nano X and Ledger Nano S--through its
e-commerce website, which operates on Defendant Shopify, Inc.'s
platform. The Plaintiffs allege they, and several putative classes,
each bought a Ledger hardware wallet on Ledger's e-commerce
website, through Shopify's platform, between July 2017 and June
2020. When the Plaintiffs made their purchases, they provided their
name, email addresses, telephone numbers and postal addresses.

The Plaintiffs' claims arise of two security incidents involving
data breaches exposing the Plaintiffs' contact information. First,
Plaintiffs allege that between April and June 2020, rogue Shopify,
Inc. employees exported a trove of data, including Ledger's
customer transactional records. Shopify allegedly publicly
announced the theft on Sept. 22, 2020, which involved the data of
approximately 272,000 people. The Plaintiffs allege that Ledger did
not inform them that their data was involved in the Shopify breach
at that time.

Second, the Plaintiffs allege that Ledger publicly announced that
an unauthorized third-party gained access to Ledger's e-commerce
database through an application programming interface key on June
25, 2020, and acquired the email addresses of one million customers
and physical contact information of 9,500 customers. The Plaintiffs
allege that Ledger did not disclose that the attack on Ledger's
website and the theft of Shopify's data were connected, that Ledger
downplayed the scale of the actual attack, and, as a result, the
Plaintiffs and putative class members were subject to phishing
scams, cyber-attacks, and demands for ransom and threats. The
Plaintiffs contend that Ledger knew that its customer list was
highly valuable to hackers, because it was a list of people who
have converted substantial wealth into anonymized crypto-assets
that are transferrable without a trace.

On July 26, 2021, the Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the
case.

As reported in the Class Action Reporter on November 29, 2021,
Judge Edward M. Chen entered an order granting the Defendants'
motions to dismiss.

The Plaintiffs now seek a review of this order.

The appellate case is captioned as Edward Baton, et al. v. Ledger
SAS, et al., Case No. 21-17036, in the United States Court of
Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, filed on December 9, 2021.

The briefing schedule in the Appellate Case states that:

OCTAVIA GATEWAY: 8 Octavia Balks at Improper Omission of Inspection
-------------------------------------------------------------------
8 OCTAVIA BOULEVARD OWNERS' ASSOCIATION, a California nonprofit
mutual benefit corporation on behalf of itself, and in its
representative capacity on behalf of its members v. OCTAVIA GATEWAY
HOLDINGS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; DDG CALIFORNIA
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; DM DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS,
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company; DDG PARTNERS LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company; and DOES 1 through 300,
inclusive, Case No. CGC-21-596905 (Cal. Super. Ct., San Francisco
Cty., Dec. 2, 2021), is brought against the Defendant for violation
of he California Civil Code as a result of the Defendant omitting
and or carelessly performed inspections and therefore did not
reveal, disclose or inform 8 OCTAVIA or its members of the
conditions of the Project.

According to the complaint, each and every Defendant had a duty to
8 OCTAVIA and its members as reasonably foreseeable purchasers,
owners, and managing association within the 8 OCTAVIA project
located in San Francisco, California, to use reasonable care in
performing the tasks as related to the planning, development, and
creation, including the 8 OCTAVIA, improvement, design,
construction, inspection, promotion, and sale of the project.

8 OCTAVIA alleges that from time-to-time during the approximate
period of construction of the Project to the date of this
Complaint, Defendants performed inspections or should have
performed inspections to ensure the quality of construction, in
conformance with the Governing Documents and the Standards for
Residential Construction set forth in California Civil Code Section
895 et seq., as well as with all applicable building codes and the
approved plans and specifications for the work, and reported on
conditions of various elements of the Project, including, but not
limited to, the Common Area and Units, and made recommendations as
to said conditions to Co-Defendants.

8 OCTAVIA asserts that some or all of its damages arise out of the
breach by DEVELOPER DEFENDANTS of the Governing Documents and
equitable servitudes stated therein, both personal in nature and
running with the land, and that the damages, including the cost to
repair and replace defective improvements in good condition and
repair and the consequential damages from the same, proximately
flow from the wrongful conduct of DEVELOPER DEFENDANTS and
defendants, generally.

8 OCTAVIA further alleges that Defendants, or those who such
Defendants hired to make inspections, omitted to properly make such
inspections or carelessly performed such inspections and therefore
did not reveal, disclose or inform 8 OCTAVIA or its members of the
conditions of the Project observed during said inspections or that
would have come to their attention had such inspections been
conducted by said parties, and 8 OCTAVIA, first when controlled by
DEVELOPER DEFENDANTS, and thereafter when controlled by purchasing
members, along with all purchasing members of 8 OCTAVIA, reasonably
relied on the implied and express representations that the Project
was properly constructed and completed in a good condition and
repair, and free from construction and/or design defects and
premature and unreasonable deterioration of the improvements, and
that 8 OCTAVIA'S obligations of maintenance, repair and replacement
of the improvements at the Property in a good condition and repair
as required by the Governing Documents could reasonably be
completed and accomplished and funded by the assessments as
provided for by the DEVELOPER DEFENDANTS and as set forth in the
pro forma budget estimates submitted by Defendants to the
California Department/Bureau of Real Estate.

8 OCTAVIA and its purchasing members neither knew, nor had reason
or opportunity to know, of said defects at the time 8 OCTAVIA was
burdened with management of the Project, including specifically the
duty to maintain, repair and replace the common area improvements
in good condition and repair, or when said members of 8 OCTAVIA
entered into agreements with Defendants, or at the time of transfer
of the Common Area or the Units at the time of purchase,
respectively, or at any time prior to the running of any
limitations period set forth in California Civil Code.

8 OCTAVIA is presently unaware of when all the defective conditions
alleged herein first occurred or manifested themselves or caused
physical injury to or destruction of tangible property, or the loss
of use of such property, but asserts that the construction
deficiencies at the Project have developed and occurred over a
period of time since substantial completion of the Project, said
deficiencies and resulting physical injuries being continuous and
progressive, says the complaint.

The Plaintiff is a nonprofit mutual benefit corporation duly
organized and existing by virtue of the laws of the State of
California.

OCTAVIA GATEWAY HOLDINGS LLC was a Delaware limited liability
company doing business in the State of California.[BN]

PERRY'S RESTAURANTS: Conditional Cert. of Server Class Sought
-------------------------------------------------------------
In the class action lawsuit captioned as LANCE GREEN and ANDERSON
KHALID, individually and on behalf of all others similarly
situated, v. PERRY'S RESTAURANTS LTD; PERRY'S STEAKHOUSE OF
COLORADO, LLC, collectively d/b/a PERRY'S STEAKHOUSE AND GRILLE;
and CHRISTOPHER V. PERRY, individually, Case No.
1:21-cv-00023-WJM-NRN (D. Colo.), the Plaintiff asks the Court to
enter an order granting conditional certification for a class of
similarly situated employees (Collective Members), defined as:

   "All current and former servers who worked at Perry's
   Steakhouse & Grille in Colorado, Alabama, North Carolina, or
   Florida and were paid a direct subminimum cash hourly wage at
   any time since April 30, 2018."

The Plaintiffs and Collective Members worked as servers for Perry's
and were all paid a direct cash wage of less than minimum wage,
plus tips left by customers.

This action challenges Perry's company-wide practice of paying its
servers subminimum hourly wages and paying its servers subminimum
wages to perform both tipped and non-tipped job duties at its
locations in Alabama, Colorado, Florida, and North Carolina.
Perry's practice of paying its servers a subminimum hourly wage for
all hours worked, including the hours spent performing non-tipped
work (before, during, and the end of each shift) violates the Fair
Labor Standards Act (FLSA's) tip credit and minimum wage
provisions.

Perry's utilizes the same compensation structure to pay its servers
and uniformly applies its policies to all servers, including the
Plaintiffs and Collective Members, across all locations.

REVANCE THERAPEUTICS: Inflated Prices of Securities, Aramic Claims
------------------------------------------------------------------
ARAMIC LLC, individually and on behalf of all others similarly
situated, Plaintiff v. REVANCE THERAPEUTICS, INC., MARK J. FOLEY,
and TOBIN C. SCHILKE, Defendants, Case No. 3:21-cv-09585-EJD (N.D.
Cal., December 10, 2021) is a class action against the Defendants
for violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.

According to the complaint, the Defendants made materially false
and misleading statements with the Securities and Exchange
Commission regarding Revance's business, operations, and compliance
policies in order to trade Revance securities at artificially
inflated prices between November 25, 2019 and October 11, 2021.
Specifically, the Defendants allegedly failed to disclose that: (i)
quality control deficiencies existed at the company's manufacturing
facility for DaxibotulinumtoxinA for injection (DAXI); (ii) the
foregoing deficiencies decreased the likelihood that the Food and
Drug Administration (FDA) would approve the DAXI Biologics License
Application (BLA) in its current form; (iii) accordingly, it was
unlikely that the DAXI BLA would obtain FDA approval within the
timeframe the company had represented to investors; and (iv) as a
result, the company's public statements were materially false and
misleading at all relevant times.

When the truth emerged, Revance's stock price fell $6.85 per share,
or 25 percent, to close at $20.45 per share on October 12, 2021.
The company's stock price continuously fell $8.90 per share, or
39.19 percent, to close at $13.81 per share on October 18, 2021.

Aramic, LLC is a limited liability company based in Florida.

TETHER HOLDINGS: Anderson Sues Over Tether Token Misrepresentations
-------------------------------------------------------------------
MATTHEW ANDERSON and SHAWN DOLIFKA, individually and on behalf of
all others similarly situated, Plaintiffs v. TETHER HOLDINGS
LIMITED, TETHER LIMITED, TETHER INTERNATIONAL LIMITED, TETHER
OPERATIONS LIMITED, IFINEX INC., BFXNA INC., and BFXWW INC.,
Defendants, Case No. 1:21-cv-10613 (S.D.N.Y., December 10, 2021) is
a class action against the Defendants for violations of New York's
Uniform Deceptive Trade Practices Act, Nevada Deceptive Trade
Practices Act, breach of contract, breach of implied contract,
unjust enrichment, and declaratory and injunctive relief.

The case arises from the Defendants' scheme to induce consumers to
purchase its cryptocurrency, Tether. The Defendants have marketed
Tether tokens as a stable coin, a cryptocurrency that is tied to a
real-world currency. The Defendants have consistently maintained on
their website, blog posts, court filings, social media accounts,
and elsewhere that Tether tokens are backed one-to-one by
sufficient reserves in U.S. dollars. They have also promised, in
the interest of transparency, to undergo routine audits of Tether's
reserves. Given these representations, consumers, including the
Plaintiffs, reasonably believed that each Tether token was equal to
one U.S. dollar and backed by one U.S. dollar in the Defendants'
reserves. But these alleged representations were false. Two
regulatory agencies, the New York State Attorney General (NYOAG)
and the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), found that
the Defendants had misrepresented the backing of Tether tokens and
in fact, the Defendants did not maintain the same amount of
reserves as Tether tokens in circulation. At times, Defendants had
no reserves whatsoever. Further, these reserves did not contain
U.S. dollars, as Tether suggested, but were a mix of other assets,
such as overcollateralized loans and other undisclosed commercial
paper, says the suit.

Tether Holdings Limited is the holding company for Tether Limited,
Tether Operations Limited, and Tether International Limited.

Tether Limited is a cryptocurrency company organized under the laws
of Hong Kong.

Tether International Limited is a cryptocurrency company organized
under the laws of the British Virgin Islands.

Tether Operations Limited is a cryptocurrency company organized
under the laws of the British Virgin Islands.

iFinex Inc. is a company organized under the laws of the British
