(f/k/a E.I. Du Pont De Nemours and Company); KIDDE PLC, INC.; NATIONAL FOAM, INC.; and, TYCO FIRE PRODUCTS LP (as successor-in-interest to The Ansul Company), Defendants, Case No. 2:26-cv-01457-RMG (D.S.C., April 7, 2026) is a class action to address potential polyfluoroalkyl substances ("PFAS") contamination of groundwater on which it intends to rely to provide drinking water, and the potential PFAS contamination of planned drinking water supply wells; to recover costs associated with the contamination of groundwater and this other property with PFAS; and further seek abatement of the ongoing nuisance these chemicals constitute in the environment, and for such other action as is necessary to ensure that this PFAS contamination does not present a risk to the public. The complaint relates that the Defendants designed, manufactured, marketed, distributed, stored and/or sold Fluorochemical Products with the knowledge that these toxic compounds would be released into the environment during fire protection, fire training, and response activities, even when used as directed and intended by Defendants. The Defendants were also aware that their Fluorochemical Products would be and have been used, released, stored, and/or disposed of at, near, or within the vicinity of Plaintiff's water supplies and other property such that PFAS, and their chemical precursors would enter the environment, migrate through the soil, sediment, stormwater, surface water, and groundwater, thereby contaminating the water on which Plaintiff intends to rely. As a result of the use of defendants' Fluorochemical Products for their intended purpose, PFAS, and/or their chemical precursors have been detected in groundwater which Plaintiff intends to use for drinking water supplies at levels exceeding the Washington State Action Levels and the Environmental Protection Agency's lifetime health advisory levels and national drinking water standards. The Plaintiff files this lawsuit to seek abatement of an ongoing nuisance, to recover compensatory and all other damages and relief, including all necessary funds to compensate Plaintiff for the costs of investigating and remediating the contamination of drinking water supplies and other property impacted by PFAS; designing, constructing, installing, operating, and maintaining the treatment facilities and equipment required to remove PFAS from public water supplies; and for such other damages and relief the Court may order. Such costs include all necessary funds to investigate, monitor, assess, evaluate, remediate, abate, or contain contamination of water resources that are polluted with PFAS. Plaintiff is a public utility district that provides drinking water to residents and commercial customers in Clark County, Washington. Defendants are companies that designed, manufactured, marketed, distributed, and/or sold PFAS, the chemical precursors of PFAS, and/or products containing PFAS, and/or their chemical precursors.[BN] The Plaintiff is represented by: Kenneth A.

(d/b/a MYRTLE THAI), NIKA CHITBUNCHONG, and ATTASITH CHINSAWANANON, Defendants, Case No. 1:26-cv-02026 (E.D.N.Y., April 6, 2026) arises from the Defendants' unlawful labor practices in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act and the New York Labor Law. According to the complaint, Plaintiff Gonzalez regularly worked for the Defendants in excess of 40 hours per week, without appropriate spread of hours pay and overtime compensation for any of the hours that he worked each week. Rather, the Defendants failed to maintain accurate records of hours worked and failed to pay Plaintiff Gonzalez appropriately for any hours he worked in excess of 40 a week. Further, the Defendants failed to pay Plaintiff Gonzalez the required "spread of hours" pay for any day in which he had to work over 10 hours a day; and failed to furnish an accurate wage notice and statement to Plaintiff, asserts the complaint. Plaintiff Gonzalez worked as a cook and food preparer from approximately February 2013 until March 13, 2026 at Defendant's Thai restaurant. 438 Myrtle Avenue Restaurant Inc. is a Thai restaurant owned by Nika Chitbunchong and Attasith Chinsawananon located in Brooklyn, New York.[BN] The Plaintiff is represented by: Michael Faillace, Esq.

Fla., April 7, 2026), is brought under the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA"), for Defendants' failure to pay Plaintiff and similarly situated employees unpaid wages and overtime compensation for all hours worked. The Defendants failed to compensate Plaintiff and similarly situated employees for all hours worked, including pre-shift work and work performed as well as during automatically deducted meal periods. The Defendants employed Plaintiffs as hourly paid construction workers, including dump truck drivers and laborers, responsible for transporting materials and performing site-related construction duties. The Defendants failed to pay the Plaintiff and all similarly situated employees for their pre-shift time spent preparing for the assignment for the day, such as checking vehicles, load any supplies, tools, or anything else needed before they left the yard for the day. The Defendants also failed to compensate the Plaintiff and all similarly situated employees for all time worked, pursuant to the actual timesheets, says the complaint. The Plaintiff was employed by Defendants as an hourly employee from June 1, 2018 through February 26, 2026. Andrews Paving, Inc.

ASPIRE EVENTS LLC; COLLECTIVE EQUITY INC.; THEMED STR CAPITAL FUND, LLC; ANDREW CORDLE; EDDIE WILSON; RETAIL ECOMMERCE VENTURES LLC d/b/a REV HOLDINGS, LLC; TAINO ADRIAN LOPEZ; ALEXANDER FARHANG MEHR; and MAYA ROSE BURKENROAD, Defendants, Case No. 3:26-cv-00787 (M.D. Fla., April 7, 2026) is a class action against the Defendants for actual fraudulent transfer, constructive fraudulent transfer, aiding and abetting fraud, aiding and abetting fraudulent transfers, civil conspiracy, civil conspiracy to commit fraudulent transfer, unjust enrichment, money had and received, conversion, aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty, control person liability, and violations of Florida Securities Act and section 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. The case arises from the downstream transfer, concealment, deployment, and retention of investor proceeds derived from an unlawful and fraudulent promissory note offering operated through non-party Norada Capital Management, LLC and its related entities (collectively, the "Norada Enterprise"). According to the complaint, from approximately January 2020 through August 2024, the Norada Enterprise raised tens of millions of dollars from investors nationwide by offering high-yield, unsecured promissory notes promising annual returns between 12 percent and 17 percent or higher, often accompanied by additional "bonus" inducements of 5 percent. The Defendants knowingly received, managed, deployed, or benefited from these investor funds and involvement with the Norada Enterprise, and substantially assisted the continuation and concealment of the scheme. The Plaintiffs seek avoidance of fraudulent transfers, money judgments against transferees, restitution and disgorgement, compensatory and punitive damages as permitted, and equitable relief, including constructive trust, equitable lien, injunctive relief, and appointment of a receiver where warranted, suit says. Aspire Events LLC is an event management company based in Florida. Collective Equity Inc. is a company based in Ponte Vedra, Florida. Themed STR Capital Fund, LLC is a limited liability company based in Kissimmee, Florida. Retail Ecommerce Ventures LLC, doing business as REV Holdings, LLC, is an insolvent Delaware limited liability company with its principal place of business in Florida.

ATLANTIC AUTO GROUP d/b/a MILLENNIUM HONDA, Case No. 2:26-cv-02058 (E.D.N.Y., April 7, 2026), is brought seeking recovery for unpaid wages against the Defendant for its violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA"); the New York Labor Law ("NYLL"); Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 ("Title VII"); the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (the "ADA"); and the New York State Human Rights Law (the "NYSHRL"), for, inter alia, race discrimination, religious discrimination, disability discrimination, and retaliation. The Defendant has failed to pay proper compensation to Plaintiff under the FLSA and/or NYLL by failing to pay him an hourly wage that was equal to or greater than Plaintiff's regular rate of pay for all time spent performing labor both for regular straight time hours and those in excess of 40 hours of his regular workweek. While Plaintiff only wanted to work free from any discrimination and merely sought to be paid for his work, he was treated differently than all the other employees simply because he is an African American male who is not Hispanic. Despite Plaintiff's satisfactory performance, the Defendant discriminated against Plaintiff because of his race, color, and national origin by diverting customers to the Hispanic salespeople instead of to him, an African American. The Plaintiff has therefore commenced this case to recover unpaid wages he had been deprived of, back pay, front pay, emotional distress damages, plus interest (pre-judgment and post judgment), liquidated damages, attorneys' fees, and costs on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, says the complaint. The Plaintiff began working for Defendant in August 2012, as a Sales Representative.

The case is styled as Robyn Davis, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated v. Avocado Mattress, LLC, Case No. 1:25-cv-08577 (E.D. Cal., April 7, 2026).

AVOCADO MATTRESS, LLC., Defendant, Case No. 2:26-cv-01390-TLN-SCR (E.D. Cal., April 7, 2026) is a class action against the Defendant for: (1) violation of California's False Advertising Law; (2) violation of California's Consumers Legal Remedies Act; (3) violation of California's Unfair Competition Law; (4) breach of contract; (5) breach of express warranty; (6) negligent misrepresentation; and (7) intentional misrepresentation. The complaint relates that the Defendant manufactures, markets, and sells organic mattresses, bedding, and furniture products through its e-commerce website. It advertises its products as for sale on its Website at prices listed alongside higher reference prices, with representations that the listed price represents a limited-time "sale" or a substantial discount (e.g., "SAVE 10%") from the purportedly regular price. In reality, the Defendant does not regularly sell, and has not recently sold, the Products at the higher prices that it lists on its Website alongside the purported "sale" or discounted prices for these Products. Rather, Products sold on Defendant's Website are either always or almost always offered at the purported "sale" or discounted prices, and either never or almost never at the higher anchor prices. The prices listed for Defendant's Products are, thus, false reference points intended to make the Products appear like unusually good, limited-time bargains at the advertised "sale" or discounted prices, asserts the complaint. In so doing, Defendant violates California's and the FTC's prohibitions on false advertising and misleading pricing, the complaint adds. For these reasons, the Plaintiff brings this action individually and on behalf of all consumers who, within the applicable statute of limitations period up to and including the date of judgment in this action, purchased Products from Defendant at prices that purported to represent discounts off of falsely represented prices. Based on Defendant's unlawful conduct, Plaintiff seeks damages, restitution, declaratory relief, injunctive relief, and reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. Plaintiff Robyn Davis purchased an Eco Organic Mattress (Twin) from Defendant's Website, avocadogreenmattress.com on November 30, 2023.

Bai Brands, LLC, Case No. 1:24-cv-03993-AS (S.D.N.Y.), the Hon. Judge Subramanian entered an order granting the Defendant's motion for summary judgment. Accordingly, the pending motions for class certification and to exclude certain experts are denied as moot. In this putative consumer class-action against a beverage manufacturer, the plaintiff has failed to show a genuine dispute of material fact on an essential element of her claim.

CORE VALUE INSURANCE GROUP LLC, a Delaware registered company, Defendant, Case No. 3:26-cv-613 (AJB/MJK) (N.D.N.Y., April 7, 2026) is a class action against the Defendant to stop the Defendant from violating the Telephone Consumer Protection Act by placing pre-recorded calls to consumers without consent. According to the complaint, since late 2024, Plaintiff Kilmer has been receiving unsolicited calls to his landline phone number regarding Medicare. Many of the calls that Plaintiff Kilmer received were placed using an artificial agent that asks pre-qualification questions, and that can provide limited responses to consumer prompts. Plaintiff Kilmer told the artificial agent to stop calling multiple times, but the calls have continued. Plaintiff Kilmer never provided prior express consent to Defendant CVIG or any entity acting on its behalf to place calls to his telephone number using an artificial or prerecorded voice. The complaint alleges that the unauthorized solicitation telephone calls that Plaintiff Kilmer received from or on behalf of the Defendant have harmed Plaintiff in the form of annoyance, nuisance, and invasion of privacy, occupied his phone line, and disturbed the use and enjoyment of his phone. The calls also wasted Plaintiff's time, as he spent time allowing himself to be transferred to determine which company is behind the calls. Seeking redress for these injuries, Plaintiff Kilmer, on behalf of himself and a Class of similarly situated individuals, brings suit under the TCPA. He also seeks injunctive and monetary relief for all persons injured by Defendant's conduct. Plaintiff CHAD KILMER is a resident of Binghamton, New York and is the sole owner and user of his landline phone number ending in 4170. Defendant CORE VALUE INSURANCE GROUP LLC (CVIG) is a Medicare advantage brokerage that markets and solicits insurance plans to consumers throughout the United States.[BN] The Plaintiff is represented by: Stefan Coleman, Esq.

DHL EXPRESS (USA), INC., Defendant, Case No. 9:26-cv-80382 (S.D. Fla., April 6, 2026) is a class action lawsuit arising from DHL's practice of improperly levying import duties and collecting processing and other fees on duty-free products. According to the complaint, DHL collected from businesses and consumers like Plaintiff and Class Members both unlawful duties and brokerage, advancement, and other fees under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) that were necessitated by tariffs which were never lawfully authorized. This entire customs entry was unnecessary as the Duty-Free products would have entered Duty-Free without any formal or informal entry filing. For Duty-Free products, the customs entries processed by DHL were necessitated solely by the void IEEPA tariffs. No customs entry would have been required but for the unlawful tariffs. The Defendant charged fees for processing entries that should never have been filed, and now seeks to retain those fees even as its Court of International Trade filing acknowledges the void status of the underlying tariffs, says the suit. G-Force Powersports Inc. is a corporation with its principal place of business in Taylor, South Carolina. DHL Express (USA), Inc. doing business as DHL Express, provides mail services.

Elite Renovators Inc., Elite Contractors Inc., Hassan Jhangir, and Waqas Ahmed, Case No. 1:26-cv-02056 (E.D.N.Y., April 7, 2026), is brought alleging violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA"), the New York Labor Law ("NYLL") for various willful and unlawful employment policies, patterns, and/or practices as a result of the Defendants failure to pay proper wages. The Defendants regularly required the Plaintiffs to work in excess of 40 hours per week without paying them appropriate minimum wage or overtime compensations as required by federal and state laws. Even after the Plaintiffs' scheduled shifts ended, the Defendants required the Plaintiffs to stand-by until late at night to receive instructions for the next day's job duties, without paying any compensation for their out-of-shift hours. The Plaintiffs were victims of the Defendants' common policy and practices which violate their rights under the FLSA and the NYLL, by inter alia, not paying Plaintiffs the wages they were owed for the hours they worked, says the complaint. The Plaintiffs were employed by Elite Renovators Inc and/or Elite Contractors Inc., as bricklayers, while performing related miscellaneous duties for the Defendants. Elite operate and/or operated as a construction company and the bricklayers of the Construction Company performed bricklaying work.[BN] The Plaintiffs are represented by: Diana Seo, Esq.

Eureka Farms LLC, Case No. 3:26-cv-00460 (N.D. Ill., April 7, 2026), is brought arising from the Defendant's failure to design, construct, maintain, and operate their website to be fully accessible to and independently usable by Plaintiff and other blind or visually impaired persons. The Defendant is denying blind and visually impaired persons throughout the United States with equal access to the goods and services the Defendant provides to their non-disabled customers through its Website https://eureka-farms.com/ (hereinafter "Website" or "the Website"). The Defendant's denial of full and equal access to its website, and therefore denial of its products and services offered, and in conjunction with its physical locations, is a violation of Plaintiff's rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "ADA"). Because the Defendant's website is not equally accessible to blind and visually impaired consumers, it violates the ADA. The Plaintiff seeks a permanent injunction to cause a change in the Defendant's policies, practices, and procedures to that Defendant's website will become and remain accessible to blind and visually-impaired consumers. This complaint also seeks compensatory damages to compensate Class members for having been subjected to unlawful discrimination, says the complaint. The Plaintiff is a visually-impaired and legally blind person who requires screen-reading software to read website content using the computer. The Defendant provides to the public the Website, which provides consumers access to an array of goods and services, including, the ability to purchase a broad range of indoor and outdoor plants and trees, including flowering, shade, and fruit-bearing varieties, complemented by a selection of tropical plants, palms, and privacy hedging.[BN] The Plaintiff is represented by: Jason B.

LAPHAM-HICKEY STEEL CORP., Case 1:26-cv-00393-UNA (D. Del., April 7, 2026), is brought for the Defendant's failure to pay its employees overtime wages, seeking all available relief under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 ("FLSA"). The Plaintiff worked 40 or more hours in one or more workweek(s). The Defendant paid Named Plaintiff and other similarly situated production/manufacturing employees an hourly wage for hours worked. In addition to the Base Hourly Wage, the Defendant paid its hourly production/manufacturing employees additional forms of compensation that must be included in their regular rates of pay to calculate overtime compensation. These additional forms of remuneration include, but are not limited to, shift differential payments. When the Defendant paid the Plaintiff and other similarly situated production/manufacturing employees both their Base Hourly Wage and Additional Remuneration, the Defendant failed to correctly calculate their regular rates of pay for overtime pay because the Defendant did not include the Additional Remuneration in the regular rate calculations. Consequently, the Defendant failed to properly compensate the Plaintiff and other similarly situated production/manufacturing employees for their overtime wages in accordance with the FLSA, says the complaint.

METRO WEST AMBULANCE SERVICE, INC., Defendant, Case No. 3:26-cv-00691-JR (D. Or., April 7, 2026) is a class and collective action to recover unpaid wages and other damages from the Defendant. The complaint relates that Metro West pays Caverly and the other Hourly Employees by the hour. But Metro West does not pay them for all hours worked. Instead, Metro West automatically rounds Caverly's and the other Hourly Employees' clock in and clock out times to the nearest quarter hour for its own primary benefit and to the detriment of these employees. And Metro West does not provide or make available a meaningful opportunity to take a bona fide, compliant 30-minute meal period, even on an on-duty basis, to Caverly and the other Hourly Employees. Instead, Metro West requires Caverly and the other Hourly Employees to remain on duty and perform their regular job duties throughout their shifts. Metro West likewise does not provide or make available bona fide rest periods for every four hours worked or major fraction thereof to Caverly and the other Hourly Employees. Metro West pays Caverly and the other Hourly Employees nondiscretionary bonuses that it excludes from their regular rates of pay for overtime purposes, adds the complaint. Metro West's pay policies violate the Washington Minimum Wage Act by depriving Caverly and other Hourly Employees of overtime wages of at least 1.5 times their regular rates of pay—based on all remuneration—for all hours worked in excess of 40 in a workweek, asserts the complaint. As a result of its rounding policy, meal period policy, rest period policy, and bonus pay scheme, Metro West willfully withholds earned wages from Caverly and other Hourly Employees in violation of the Washington Wage Rebate Act, says the complaint. Plaintiff Jonathan Caverly was employed as an EMT from June 2023 until June 2025.

THE MOSAIC COMPANY; MOSAIC FERTILIZER, LLC; NUTRIEN LTD.; NUTRIEN AG SOLUTIONS, INC.; CF INDUSTRIES HOLDINGS, INC.; CF INDUSTRIES, INC.; CF INDUSTRIES NITROGEN, LLC; KOCH INDUSTRIES, LLC; KOCH AGRONOMIC SERVICES, LLC; KOCH AG & ENERGY SOLUTIONS, LLC; KOCH FERTILIZER, LLC; KOCH FERTILIZER WEVER, LLC; YARA INTERNATIONAL ASA; YARA NORTH AMERICA, INC.; CANPOTEX LTD.; INTERNATIONAL FERTILIZER ASSOCIATION; and THE FERTILIZER INSTITUTE, Defendants, Case No. 3:26-cv-02970 (N.D. Cal., April 6, 2026) is an antitrust class action to recover damages, obtain injunctive relief, and restore competition to the market for NPK (Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), and Potassium (K)) fertilizer.. The complaint states that in 2021, Defendants entered into and participated in a contract, combination, or conspiracy to fix, raise, maintain, and stabilize prices and to restrict output of NPK Fertilizers sold throughout the United States. Through coordinated conduct across these product markets, Defendants aligned pricing and supply decisions and eliminated meaningful competition. These coordinated actions spanned multiple fertilizer products and producers and were implemented in parallel, reflecting agreement rather than independent conduct. The Defendants' conduct has generated extraordinary profits while insulating them from competitive pressures. Even as input costs declined and agricultural market conditions shifted, Defendants maintained elevated prices, demonstrating the artificial and coordinated nature of the pricing regime. Through this unlawful conduct, the Defendants restrained trade in violation of the Sherman Act and the laws of unjust enrichment, causing Plaintiff and the Class to pay supracompetitive prices for NPK Fertilizers, says the suit. The Plaintiff and members of the Class paid significantly higher prices for NPK Fertilizers than they would have paid in a competitive market. These overcharges imposed substantial costs on U.S. farmers, who depend on NPK Fertilizers as essential inputs for agricultural production, adds the complaint. Plaintiff Bradley Samuelson operates a farm in Coupland, Texas. Defendants are among the largest producers and distributors of NPK Fertilizers in the United States.[BN] The Plaintiff is represented by: Adam J. Zapala, Esq. Elizabeth T. Castillo, Esq.

On June 11, 2025, John Weis filed a shareholder derivative action against current and former members of the Board of Directors of the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On June 13, 2025, Robert Troha also filed a shareholder derivative action against certain of the Company's executive officers and current and former members of the Board of Directors of the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.

All plaintiffs seek to allege on behalf of the Company that defendants breached fiduciary duties by allegedly making false or misleading statements, approving the making of false or misleading statements, and/or withholding information regarding the Altamira FLNG project. The actions allege violations of Section 14(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 14a-9 with respect to the 2023 and 2024 Proxy Statements, Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, breaches of fiduciary duties, gross mismanagement, aiding and abetting breaches of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment and waste of corporate assets.

The Company owns and operates natural gas and liquefied natural gas infrastructure, and an integrated fleet of ships and logistics assets to rapidly deliver turnkey energy solutions to global markets. Collectively, New Fortress Energy Inc. assets and operations reinforce global energy security, enable economic growth, enhance environmental stewardship and transform local industries and communities around the world. NEW FORTRESS: Loses Bid to Dismiss Bojdol Securities Suit --------------------------------------------------------- New Fortress Energy Inc. disclosed in its annual report on Form 10-K, for the period ending December 31, 2025, dated and delivered to the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 13, 2026, that the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York denied the Company's motion to dismiss the Bojdol securities class suit. On Sept. 17, 2024, plaintiff Mikolaj Bojdol filed a putative class action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain officers alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and certain rules promulgated thereunder relating to statements concerning the Company's FLNG project in Altamira, Mexico. On Nov. 1, 2024, plaintiff Taylor Anderson filed a similar class action lawsuit, also in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The cases were consolidated and a lead plaintiff was appointed on Dec. 17, 2024. The lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint on Feb. 18, 2025, asserting claims on behalf of persons and entities that purchased the Company's securities between Sept. 20, 2022, and Aug. 8, 2024, and seeks compensatory damages, interest, fees, and costs. On Feb. 19, 2026, the Court denied the defendants' motion to dismiss. While the Company believes the claims are without merit and plans to vigorously defend itself in these proceedings, a loss is reasonably possible. A liability has not been recognized as of Dec. 31, 2025, since the Company is unable to predict the outcome given the significant uncertainty with regard to whether such matters will proceed to trial, among other uncertainties, and therefore the Company is not in a position to assess the likely outcome and is unable to estimate the range of possible loss.

PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, Defendant, Case No. 2:26-at-00581 (E.D.

Cal., April 7, 2026), is brought aiming to hold Defendant responsible for failing to truthfully and accurately label and market its food products. The Defendant uniformly makes the representation on the front label of the Products that the Products contain "no preservatives" (the "Misrepresentation") causing reasonable consumers such as Plaintiff to believe that the Products are free from artificial preservatives. But contrary to Defendant's Misrepresentation, the ingredient list on the Products' back panel reveals the presence of manufactured citric acid, an ingredient that functions as a preservative and is produced through industrial fermentation and chemical processing. Like other reasonable consumers, Plaintiff was deceived by Defendant's unlawful conduct and brings this action individually and on behalf of all similarly situated consumers to remedy Defendant's unlawful acts, says the complaint. The Plaintiff purchased Defendant's five cheese tortellini pasta in person from Albertson's (the "Product") while residing in El Cajon, California, in January 2025.

SUTTER HEALTH, a California nonprofit corporation; MEMORIAL HEALTH SERVICES, INC., a California nonprofit corporation; MEMORIALCARE MEDICAL FOUNDATION, a California nonprofit foundation; and DOES 1-100, inclusive, Case No. 4:26-cv-03012-KAW (N.D. Cal., April 7, 2026), is brought challenging the Defendants' practice of recording confidential physician–patient conversations during medical appointments through the use of an "ambient AI" clinical documentation tool and transmitting those conversations to third-party systems for automated processing. Through this system, highly sensitive medical communications were intercepted, recorded, and processed without patients' informed consent. The audio recordings and transcripts generated by this system contain individually identifiable medical information, including patients' symptoms, diagnoses, medications, treatment discussions, and other personal health information disclosed during confidential medical consultations. These recordings and transcripts are transmitted outside the clinical encounter for processing through the AI platform's infrastructure. Despite California's strict protections for confidential communications and medical information--including the all-party consent requirement for recording confidential communications and the requirements of the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act ("CMIA")--Defendants implemented the AI recording system without obtaining meaningful, informed consent from patients prior to recording and transmitting their medical conversations. Unknown to Plaintiffs at the time of their visits, Defendants' deployment of the Abridge system captured and processed their confidential physician-patient communications. The Plaintiffs did not receive clear notice that their medical conversations would be recorded by an artificial intelligence platform, transmitted outside the clinical setting, or processed through third-party systems. By implementing and operating this recording system without obtaining valid consent, Defendants unlawfully intercepted confidential communications, disclosed protected medical information, and intruded upon Plaintiffs' privacy rights in violation of California and federal law, says the complaint. The Plaintiffs each received medical care from providers affiliated with Defendants. Sutter Health operates an integrated healthcare delivery system that includes hospitals, outpatient clinics, and affiliated physician organizations throughout California.[BN] The Plaintiff is represented by: Mark D.

UNISON AGREEMENT CORPORATION; UNISON INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT, LLC; and REAL ESTATE EQUITY EXCHANGE, INC. d/b/a UNISON, UNISON AGREEMENT CORP. and UNISON INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT LLC, Defendants, Case No. 1:26-cv-01444 (D. Colo., April 6, 2026) is a class action on behalf of the Plaintiffs and all other similarly situated Colorado residents who have entered into Unison Agreements relating to property located in Colorado, seeking to hold Unison liable for its violations of the Colorado Consumer Protection Act, the Colorado Uniform Consumer Credit Code, and the Colorado Mortgage Lending Laws and/or Reverse Mortgage Laws. According to the complaint, to entice homeowners to use Unison, the Company markets its product in Colorado as a "simple" "loan alternative" that creates "no debt," carries "no interest," and requires no monthly payments. Unison also tells homeowners that the Company is their "partner" in the transaction "fair and square" and that Unison will share in the ups and downs of the home's future value. The suit asserts that such statements are not true as Unison's product is a loan. It does create debt, and the homeowner will almost certainly be required to repay every penny they receive, plus interest in the form of a significant lump sum ballon payment at the conclusion of the term. Unison is also not a partner by any stretch of the imagination, and the arrangement rarely, if ever, ends up "fair and square" for the homeowner. Instead, Unison deploys a variety of mechanisms to ensure that it maximizes its return, at the homeowner's expense, says the suit. Plaintiffs Katharine and Charles Kane are homeowners in Colorado who entered into a Unison agreement. After receiving a Unison flyer in the mail, the Kanes entered into an agreement based on Unison's promise of "interest free" money. They used the initial advance from Unison to remodel their kitchen, in hopes that it would increase their home's future value when they were ready to downsize and retire. But, despite their years of hard work and over two decades of building equity in their home, the Kanes are all but trapped by the Unison agreement. As of March 31, 2026, Unison estimates the Kanes will owe up to $278,618 to terminate the contract, when they were advanced just over $87,000 after fees at the start of their agreement. For now, they can either remain in their home, despite the increasing physical difficulty of doing so and the mounting maintenance costs, or they can sell their home now and terminate the Unison agreement -- although they would walk away unable to purchase another home and with very little money for savings, says the suit. Unison Agreement Corporation is a vertically integrated home equity mortgage origination, securitization, and investment advising firm focused on the asset class of owner occupied residential real estate.[BN] The Plaintiffs are represented by: Elizabeth Aniskevich, Esq.
