In a big win for California consumers, the Federal District Court for the Central District of California denied a motion to dismiss filed by defendants Contour Technology, LLC and CEO Ken Sherman. The plaintiff, represented by Dubendorf Law Firm, filed a complaint that includes allegations of false, misleading, and deceptive advertising regarding the defendants’ “Contour Core Sculpting System,” a purported electronic muscle stimulation belt advertised as able to cause users to lose inches off the waistline and create “rock hard abs.”The Court, in a decision written by the Honorable George H. King, rejected the defendants’ argument that their unilateral issuance of a partial refund somehow destroyed Plaintiff’s standing to sue. The Court stated that Defendants’ argument was “not well taken,” reasoning that the Court “would be hard-pressed to believe” and it would be “difficult to fathom” the defendants’ “convoluted argument.” The Court ordered the defendants to answer the plaintiff’s Complaint within 14 days.
