Notice of Class Action and Proposed Class Action Settlement Sample Clauses

Notice of Class Action and Proposed Class Action Settlement. TO: All persons or entities in the United States who processed film with SEATTLE FILMWORKS or PHOTOWORKS, or received film distributed by SEATTLE FILMWORKS or PHOTOWORKS, at any time after March 29, 1996 ("the Class"): This is to notify you that a Class Action lawsuit ("Class Suit") has been brought on your behalf in the Superior Court of King County, Washington, No. 00-2-09552-0SEA, against PhotoWorks, Inc., of Seattle Washington, formerly known as Seattle FilmWorks. In the Class Suit the plaintiffs (who are 6 individuals) claim that Seattle FilmWorks (now PhotoWorks) has made false or misleading representations to customers, as well as to other photoprocessers, (1) that Seattle FilmWorks brand film can be processed only by Seattle FilmWorks or by only a few other labs, when in fact most of such film is of a C-41 type that can be processed by most other photofinishers; and (2) that replacement film distributed by Seattle FilmWorks to photo-processing customers is "free," when in fact customers are charged for the replacement film. On behalf of the Class, plaintiffs seek injunctive and declaratory relief, as well as damages. PhotoWorks disputes and denies these allegations and denies any wrongdoing or liability on the claims asserted in the lawsuit. In the Class Suit there has been no trial or other determination of the merits of the claims, and this Notice is not an expression of any opinion by the Court as to the merits of the claims.
