Seventh Circuit -- Lady Di's Incorporat v. Enhanced Services Billing

Lady Di's Incorporat v. Enhanced Services Billing

When filing a class-action suit against a company for putting unauthorized services on your phone bill, first make sure that you didn't order the services.  In an astonishing display of gumption, plaintiffs press on.

Court holds that the state phone billing regulation isn't fit to borrow for proof of unjust enrichment and/or deception, as the statute applies to phone companies, not the service-provider defts here.  As there's not provable foul, there's insufficient commonality for certification.
Compiled by D.E. Frydrychowski, who is, not incidentally, not giving you legal advice.
