This week, my firm, along with Baker Law PC, filed another class action lawsuit against JC Penney for false advertising and deceptive trade practices. The case parallels the ongoing litigation against JC Penney in Alabama, which I've written about before.
The lawsuit seeks relief under Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code §§ 17200 and 17500 for JC Penney’s false advertising regarding the sale of jewelry, whether it involves metal fineness; the use of undisclosed or less-desirable metals as plating or finishes over precious metals; the existence, thickness or quality of metal plating; the use of alternative, cheaper, less-desirable, or non-precious metals or metal alloys; the number, size or quality of diamonds or other stones; the geographic origin of the item or its contents; failure to comply with the FTC Guides for the Jewelry, Precious Metals, and Pewter Industries; or any other characteristic of jewelry about which JC Penney has lied to make a sale. You can read the complaint here.
We are actively pursuing similar claims against JC Penney and other jewelry sellers for false advertising. Feel free to give me a call if you have concerns about whether you have purchased jewelry that was falsely advertised.

The truth about termites, with an assist from the Pink Panther
Most homeowners don't know much about termites, except that they eat wood and can cause a lot of damage. Some of you might remember getting a termite inspection report when you bought your house, and maybe you have a termite contract, or bond, on your home. But what do you really know about termites? Is your house safe from termites? That's a difficult question to answer, but an important one to consider.
Maybe you saw the old Pink Panther cartoon (Pink Pest Control) in which he battles a very determined little termite trying to eat his cherished log cabin? All the PP wants to do is build a fire and enjoy the serenity of his peaceful cabin in the woods. The termite has other ideas, of course, after hitching a ride into the cabin on a stick of firewood. This super termite eats chairs and tables and walls and anything made of wood in seconds, emitting a buzzing sound that drives the Panther completely nuts. It's funny, but then again, it's not my log cabin.
