Class Action Settlement Administration Litigation
The causation theory in MDL-3162 hinges on the allegation that defendants' manipulative and deceptive schemes involving digital payment cards, gift cards, and virtual payment cards directly caused financial harm to class members. The misconduct includes mismanagement, misrepresentation, improper handling of settlement funds, and undisclosed revenue-sharing schemes, which resulted in monetary losses, wrongful charges, or unclaimed property issues. These administrative failures are argued to have deprived class members of expected benefits and caused direct financial damages.
