Instacart – Additional Fees – Quebec Class Action

Dec 2022

LEX GROUP Inc. has launched a Quebec class action lawsuit against Maplebear Inc., Maplebear Canada Inc., and Maplebear Delivery Canada Inc., doing business under Instacart™ (hereinafter collectively the “Defendants” or “Instacart”) on behalf of all residents of Quebec who have completed a transaction on the “Instacart” mobile app or on Instacart.ca and who paid a price higher than initially indicated or advertised, including without limitation paying for service fees, delivery fees, and/or other fees.

Instacart partners with popular retailers in the United States and Canada (including Quebec) in order to sell and deliver groceries and other products to consumers and other purchasers.

The class action proceedings allege that Defendants charged their customers a higher price than that advertised at the initial review stage of the transaction by not prominently displaying the “all-in” price (namely the total amount the consumer must pay for the goods or services). Moreover, the proceedings allege that the Defendants made a false and misleading representations by failing to accurately display and describe the amount of delivery fees, service fees and/or other fees in the prior steps leading to the transaction.

Accordingly, if you have completed a transaction on the “Instacart” mobile app or on the Instacart.ca website and paid a price higher than initially indicated or advertised, including without limitation paying for service fees, delivery fees, and/or other fees, then you may be part of the proposed Class defined by the class action initiated by our office. Should you be defined as a member of the class, you may be entitled to compensation should the Court authorize and ultimately grant the class action, or should a settlement be reached (and approved by the Court).

Barilla Canada – “ITALY’S #1 BRAND OF PASTA” – National Class Action

Oct 2022

LEX GROUP Inc. has launched a national class action lawsuit against Barilla Canada Inc. (hereinafter “Defendant” or “Barilla”) on behalf of Canadians who have purchased at least one of Barilla’s pasta products, which products were not produced in Italy but which bear the phrase “ITALY’S #1 BRAND OF PASTA” and/or “LA MARQUE de PÂTES No 1 EN ITALIE”, and/or which display the Italian flag colors on the front label of the packaging.

Barilla Canada markets, commercializes, distributes and sells its various well-known pasta products through many grocery stores across Canada, including Quebec. The class action proceedings allege that Barilla engaged in deceptive, misleading, false, and/or unfair advertising when labeling their pasta products as “Italy’s #1 Brand of Pasta” and/or displaying the Italian flag on its products in order to perpetuate the notion that they are made in Italy, which is not the case. Moreover, the proceedings allege the use by Barilla of deceptive and misleading claims in its marketing of pasta products.

Accordingly, if you have purchased one of Defendant’s pasta products, including but not limited to:

the Barilla® Classic Blue Box Pastas,
the Barilla® Collezione Artisanal Pastas,
the Barilla® Gluten Free Pastas,
the Barilla® Veggie Pastas, and/or
the Barilla® Whole Grain Pastas,

then you may be part of the proposed Class defined by the class action initiated by our office. Should you be defined as a member of the class, you may be entitled to compensation should the Court authorize and ultimately grant the class action, or should a settlement be reached (and approved by the Court).

Please fill out the form below if you wish to be kept informed of the progress of this case.

PROPOSED QUEBEC CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT

STUBHUB TICKET PURCHASES MADE IN QUEBEC BEFORE MARCH 11, 2020

FOR EVENTS WHICH WERE CANCELLED, POSTPONED OR RESCHEDULED AFTER MARCH 11, 2020

CLASS ACTION AUTHORIZED AND UPCOMING PROPOSED SETTLEMENT APPROVAL HEARING

A proposed settlement (“Settlement”) has been reached, subject to Court approval, between Mr. Patterson (the “Plaintiff”) and STUBHUB INC. and STUBHUB CANADA LTD. (“StubHub“) in the context of a class action instituted against several ticketing platforms including StubHub with respect to the purchase, prior to March 11, 2020, of tickets for events scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, which events were subsequently either cancelled, postponed or rescheduled, without a full refund for the tickets purchased being provided (the “Class Action”).

The Superior Court of Quebec authorized the Class Action, for settlement purposes, on May 10, 2022.

This proposed Settlement may affect your rights, whether you act or not. Please read this notice carefully.

Note: This proposed Settlement is only with regards to StubHub customers in Quebec.

BASIC INFORMATION

If you a Quebec resident and you have purchased before March 11, 2020 one or more tickets from StubHub for an event scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, which event was subsequently either cancelled, postponed or rescheduled, without a full refund being provided by StubHub, you could be eligible to receive benefits under the Settlement, if approved by the Court.

The purpose of this notice is to inform you that the Plaintiff and StubHub have reached a proposed Settlement putting an end to the Class Action (subject to Court approval). All concerned parties believe that the proposed Settlement is the best solution to dispose fairly and equitably of the dispute; they will ask the Superior Court of Quebec to approve it.

The Superior Court of Quebec will hold a hearing to determine whether it will approve the proposed Settlement. You may attend the hearing, which will take place virtually on June 17, 2022 at 9:30 a.m. in room 16.02 of the Montreal Courthouse using the following Microsoft Teams link: https://url.justice.gouv.qc.ca/oCT0.

According to the Plaintiff, StubHub committed a fault by modifying its “StubHub Marketplace Global User Agreement” by offering a 120% credit of the value of tickets instead of fully reimbursing Quebec residents for all amounts paid before March 11, 2020, regarding tickets for events scheduled after March 11, 2020, which events were subsequently cancelled. Again, according to the Plaintiff, StubHub committed a fault by providing in its “StubHub Marketplace Global User Agreement” that it would not fully reimburse Quebec residents for all amounts paid before March 11, 2020 for event tickets, which events were subsequently either postponed or rescheduled after March 11, 2020.

These allegations have not been proven in Court and are contested by StubHub, whose position is that they have complied at all times with all applicable legislation, including with respect to the modifications to its “StubHub Marketplace Global User Agreement”.

You are a Group Member if you meet all of the following conditions:

1. You are a user of the StubHub Services that had a Quebec billing address associated with your Account at the time of purchase of the Ticket(s);

2. you have purchased before March 11, 2020 at least one ticket from StubHub to at least one event scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, which event was subsequently cancelled and have opted to keep the 120% credit (“Credit”) instead of defaulting to a full refund;

you have purchased before March 11, 2020 at least one ticket from StubHub to at least one event scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, which event was subsequently either postponed or rescheduled (“Ticket(s)”);

3. you have not already used the Ticket(s) to attend the event(s) to which the Ticket(s) grant access; and

4. you have not already received a refund or used in its entirety or in part the 120% Credit previously received for such Ticket(s).

SETTLEMENT SUMMARY

Without any admission of liability, for the purpose of avoiding a trial and the additional costs and expenses related thereto, StubHub agrees to the following:

1. Each Eligible Member shall be entitled to, alternatively, (i) retain his or her Ticket(s); or (ii) cancel the contract by which he or she purchased his or her Ticket(s) and receive a benefit in the form of a credit in an amount equal to one hundred and twenty percent (120%) of the value of the Ticket(s) purchased (including all ticket prices paid, fees, taxes, additional services purchased such as parking, etc.); or (iii) cancel the contract by which he or she purchased his or her Ticket(s) and obtain the restitution of an amount equal to the value of the Ticket(s) purchased in cash (including all ticket prices paid, fees, taxes, additional services purchased such as parking, etc.), at the Eligible Member’s option;

2. Implement a business practice change regarding tickets to events that have been postponed or rescheduled, providing for a refund upon a request being made by a Quebec resident.

If you meet the four conditions described above to be a Group Member, if you have not already used your Ticket(s) to attend the events to which the Tickets grant access and if you do not wish to retain your Ticket(s), you could be eligible to receive a benefit in the form of a credit in an amount equal to one hundred and twenty percent (120%) of the value of the Ticket(s) purchased (including all ticket prices paid, fees, taxes, additional services purchased such as parking, etc.), or an amount equal to the full value of the Ticket(s) purchased in cash (including all ticket prices paid, fees, taxes, additional services purchased such as parking, etc.) provided that you return your digital Ticket(s) to StubHub (physical event ticket need not be returned). Should the Settlement be approved by the Superior Court of Quebec, you will receive a Notice of Approval of the Transaction inviting you to submit your claim by responding electronically to said Notice within the allotted claim deadline. The Notice of Approval of the Transaction will set out the three (3) options available to you, namely (i) to retain your Ticket(s), (ii) to receive a credit or (iii) to receive a cash refund. If you do not submit your claim in a timely manner, you will be deemed to have elected to hold onto your Ticket(s) and you will no longer be eligible to receive benefits pursuant to this Settlement, but you will be bound by the remaining terms thereof.

OPTING OUT

If you do not wish to be bound by this Class Action (and this proposed Settlement) for any reason whatsoever, you must take steps to exclude yourself from the Settlement Class, which will result in your exclusion from the Class Action (and the proposed Settlement).

VIVID SEATS – POSTPONED AND RESCHEDULED EVENTS (COVID-19) – QUEBEC SETTLEMENT

Apr 2022

QUEBEC CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT

NOTICE OF SETTLEMENT APPROVAL

Vivid Seats LLC

QUEBEC CLASS ACTION

N° 500-06-001066-204

This notice is to all persons in Quebec, who purchased before March 11, 2020 one or more tickets from Vivid Seats LLC for an event scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, which event was subsequently postponed or rescheduled, without a full refund being provided by Vivid Seats LLC.

PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY. IT MAY AFFECT YOUR RIGHTS.

THIS CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE COURT.

AUTHORIZATION OF THE CLASS ACTION

On July 10, 2020, a class action was commenced in Quebec against Vivid Seats LLC (“Vivid Seats”), as well as other online ticket marketplaces, alleging that they did not provide a timely refund to putative Class Members for tickets they bought before March 11, 2020 for events that were scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, which event was subsequently postponed, rescheduled or cancelled. The Representative Plaintiff was asking the Court to determine whether Class members were entitled to full reimbursement of the purchase price of the tickets and other related services purchases, plus interest, as well as punitive damages.

On April 13, 2022, the Honourable Justice Pierre-C. Gagnon of the Superior Court of Québec authorized the bringing of this class action, for settlement purposes only, against the Defendant on behalf of the following amended class:

All persons in Quebec, who purchased before March 11, 2020 one or more tickets from Vivid Seats LLC for an event scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, which event was subsequently postponed or rescheduled, without a full refund being provided by Vivid Seats LLC.

(the “Settlement Class” or “Settlement Class Members”).

This class action has now been settled, as will be described below.

SETTLEMENT APPROVED

The parties have negotiated a settlement of the class action (the “Settlement Agreement”), which was approved by the Superior Court of Quebec on July 26, 2022, and therefore determined to be fair, reasonable and in the best interest of the Settlement Class.

Vivid Seats denies any liability and denies the truth of the allegations made against it. The settlement (as described below) is a compromise of disputed claims in order to achieve an early full and final resolution of the class action, without any admission or findings of liability or wrongdoing against Vivid Seats.

THE SETTLEMENT TERMS

This Notice provides a summary of the settlement terms. Further details of the settlement including a copy of the Settlement Agreement and other relevant Judgments, notices or proceedings may be found on the Settlement Website at www.vssettlement.ca .

The Settlement Agreement provides that the Defendant will offer to its Quebec customers (i) who purchased one or more tickets before March 11, 2020 for an event scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, which event was subsequently postponed or rescheduled and has not occurred by the end of the Claims Period nd (ii) who have not received a full refund, not successfully pursued a chargeback or do not have an active chargeback in process (the “Refund Class”), the option to:

Receive a full refund of their order, which could include event tickets or parking passes (including base price, service fees, delivery fees and taxes), less any previous refunds received, in exchange for the return of their valid ticket(s); OR
Maintain their order (keep their ticket(s)).

The refund process will be done through a Claims Process on the Settlement Website. A Claim Form must be submitted before the Filing Deadline: November 6, 2022.

The refund will only be provided if the valid ticket(s) is returned to the Defendant by the end of the Claims Period (November 6, 2022), and at least 48 hours prior the event date. Methods of returning the ticket(s) can be found on the Settlement Website at www.vssettlement.ca . If an order entailed the purchase of multiple tickets, all of the tickets that formed part of the order must be sent altogether.

The refund will be credited to the method of payment used to purchase the tickets (in USD) within 80 days of the Filing Deadline. If this method of payment has expired, you will be contacted to obtain a new method of payment to credit.

The Superior Court has ruled that this process of individual recovery of claims entitles the Fonds d’aide aux actions collectives to a percentage of the amount to be reimbursed under the laws of Québec.

This excludes the payment of Administration Fees, and also excludes the payment of Class Counsel Fees, which will be paid separately by the Defendant. Settlement Class Members will therefore not be asked to support or pay for any portion of these fees.

In return for providing the reimbursements, the Defendant will receive a release from all Settlement Class Members and a declaration of settlement out of court of the class action.

The settlement is a compromise of disputed claims and is not an admission of liability, wrongdoing or fault on the part of Defendant.

If you wish to keep your event ticket(s), you have nothing to do.

EVENTS SCHEDULED TO TAKE PLACE BETWEEN NOW AND APPROXIMATELY NOVEMBER 6, 2022:

Did you purchase event tickets from Vivid Seats before March 11, 2020, for an event scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, that was subsequently postponed or rescheduled, and which event is scheduled to take place between NOW and approximately November 6, 2022 ?

If so, this section may apply to you as a member of the “Transition Refund Class”.

If you wish to hold onto your ticket(s), you have nothing to do.

NOTICE OF HEARING FOR SETTLEMENT APPROVAL AND OPT-OUT

QUEBEC CLASS ACTION

N° 500-06-001066-204

PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY. IT MAY AFFECT YOUR RIGHTS.

THIS CLASS ACTION HAS BEEN SETTLED, SUBJECT TO COURT APPROVAL.

AUTHORIZATION OF THE CLASS ACTION

On 13, 2022, the Honourable Justice Pierre-C. Gagnon of the Superior Court of Québec authorized the bringing of this class action, for settlement purposes only, against the Defendant on behalf of the following amended class:

PROPOSED SETTLEMENT OF THE CLASS ACTION

The parties to this class action have reached a proposed settlement (the “Settlement Agreement”), subject to obtaining the approval of the Superior Court of Quebec. The Settlement Agreement, if approved by the Court, provides that the Defendant will offer to its Quebec customers (i) who purchased one or more tickets before March 11, 2020 for an event scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, which event was subsequently postponed or rescheduled and has not occurred by the end of the Claims Period nd (ii) who have not received a full refund, not successfully pursued a chargeback or do not have an active chargeback in process (the “Refund Class”), the option to:

Receive a full refund of their order, which could include event tickets or parking passes (including base price, service fees, delivery fees and taxes), less any previous refunds received, in exchange for the return of their valid ticket(s); OR
Maintain their order (keep their ticket(s)).

The refund process will be done through a Claims Process on the website of the Claims Administrator. The refund will only be provided if the valid ticket(s) is returned to the Defendant by the end of the Claims Period, and at least 48 hours prior the event date. The refund will be credited to the method of payment used to purchase the tickets (in USD). If this method of payment has expired, you will be contacted to obtain a new method of payment to credit.

This excludes the payment of Administration Fees, and also excludes the payment of Class Counsel Fees, which will be paid separately by the Defendant. Settlement Class Members will therefore not be asked to support or pay for any portion of these fees.

In return for providing the reimbursements, the Defendant will receive a release from all Settlement Class Members and a declaration of settlement out of court of the Class Action.

The settlement is a compromise of disputed claims and is not an admission of liability, wrongdoing or fault on the part of Defendant.

If you wish to keep your event ticket(s), you have nothing to do.

EVENTS SCHEDULED TO TAKE PLACE BETWEEN NOW AND APPROXIMATELY SEPTEMBER 4, 2022:

If so, this section may apply to you as a member of the “Transition Refund Class”.

If you wish to hold onto your ticket(s), you have nothing to do.

If you wish to obtain a refund, which would involve returning your ticket(s) to Vivid Seats LLC, you may be able to receive it immediately – without awaiting a further Court Order in this case. Certain conditions and strict deadlines apply so you must contact Vivid Seats LLC immediately as follows:

QUEBEC CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT

NOTICE OF SETTLEMENT APPROVAL

Internet Referral Services LLC

QUEBEC CLASS ACTION

N° 500-06-001066-204

This notice is to all persons in Quebec, who purchased before March 11, 2020, one or more ticket(s) as a result of using one of Internet Referral Services LLC’s Websites (seats.com or tickets-center.com) for an event scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, which event was subsequently postponed or rescheduled, without a full refund being provided by Internet Referral Services LLC.

PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY.

A SETTLEMENT IN THIS CLASS ACTION HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE COURT.

AUTHORIZATION OF THE CLASS ACTION

On July 10, 2020, a class action was commenced in Quebec against Internet Referral Services LLC (“IRS”), as well as other online ticket marketplaces, alleging that they did not provide a timely refund to Class Members for tickets they purchased before March 11, 2020, for events that were scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, which events were subsequently postponed, rescheduled or cancelled. The Representative Plaintiff was asking the Court to determine whether Class members were entitled to full reimbursement of the purchase price of the tickets and other related services purchases, plus interest, as well as punitive damages.

IRS operates seats.com and tickets-center.com.

All persons in Quebec, who purchased before March 11, 2020 one or more tickets from Internet Referral Services LLC for an event scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, which event was subsequently postponed or rescheduled, without a full refund being provided by Internet Referral Services LLC.

(the “Settlement Class” or “Settlement Class Members”).

COURT APPROVED SETTLEMENT OF THE CLASS ACTION

The parties to this class action have reached a settlement (the “Settlement Agreement”), which was approved by the Superior Court of Québec on July 26, 2022. The Settlement Agreement provides that the Defendant will offer to its Quebec customers (i) who purchased one or more ticket(s) before March 11, 2020 for an event scheduled to take place after March 11, 2020, which event was subsequently postponed or rescheduled and has not occurred by the end of the Claims Period nd (ii) who have not received a full refund, not successfully pursued a chargeback or do not have an active chargeback in process (the “Refund Class”), the option to:

Maintain their order (keep their ticket(s)).

The Superior Court has ruled that this process of individual recovery of claims entitles the Fonds d’aide aux actions collectives to a percentage of the amount refunded under the laws of Québec.

CLAIMS PROCESS

The refund process is being done through a Claims Process on the website of the Claims Administrator. The refund will only be provided if the valid ticket(s) is returned to the Defendant by the end of the Claims Period, and at least 48 hours prior the event date.

If you wish to receive a refund of your Order, please visit the Settlement Websites seatssettlement.ca or tickets-centersettlement.ca. The deadline to submit a claim on the Settlement Websites is October 21, 2022.

If you wish to obtain a refund, you must follow the Claims Process and ensure that your electronic tickets are transferred electronically and physical tickets are to be returned by prepaid mail (envelop and courier service (such as UPS, Purolator, DHL, Canada Post) to be provided by and paid by IRS).

Audi Data Breach – Quebec Class Action

Jun 2021

On August 1, 2022, the Superior Court of Quebec authorized a Quebec Data Breach Class Action against Audi Canada Inc. (hereinafter “Audi”) regarding the Data Breach which involved the theft of personal information belonging to Audi’s current customers, potential customers and/or past customers. The authorization judgment is available on this page.

_________________________________________________________________________

Lex Group Inc. has launched a national class action against Audi Canada Inc. (hereinafter “Audi”) and Volkswagen Group Canada Inc. (hereinafter “Volkswagen”), regarding the Data Breach which involved the theft of personal information belonging to an estimated 3.3 million current customers, potential customers and/or past customers in North America.

It is alleged that Audi and Volkswagen exposed personal data obtained between 2014 and 2019 during a period lasting approximately 2 years, namely from August 2019 to May 2021. It was not until March 10, 2021, that Audi and Volkswagen apparently learned of the Data Breach. Affected people residing in Canada could be receiving an email or a letter from Audi and/or Volkswagen. If you receive such correspondence, please retain it.

The stolen personal information of the affected clients includes, without limitation:

First and last name;
Personal and/or professional mailing address;
Email address;
Phone number;
Driver’s license number;
Date of birth;
Social security or social insurance number;
Credit information;
Account or loan numbers;
Tax identification numbers; and
Information about a vehicle purchased, leased or inquired about (such as the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), make, model, year, color, and trim packages).

Accordingly, if you have received an email or a letter from Audi and/or Volkswagen or if you have provided your personal and/or personal information to Audi and/or Volkswagen between 2014 and 2019, your information may have been stolen or compromised and you may be part of the proposed Class defined by the class action initiated by our office.

Should you be defined as a member of the class in this class action, you may be entitled to compensation should the Court authorize and grant the class action on the merits, or should a settlement be reached and approved by the Court.
