Generally no, but you can try. Part of it depends on the type of case, and part of it depends on how far along the case is. Sometimes, you will get a second opportunity to opt-out later on.
If you still want to opt-out, you need to follow the directions in the class action notice.... Read more »
I order a dinner advertised for one price but am charged a higher price each time. I have brought this to the attention of several restaurant managers but they ignore my concerns and willfully continue to charge a higher price than what is advertised.
Based on these limited facts, I have a guess as to what is going on.
The advertisement you saw was probably a national ad for the fast food chain, or even a regional ad. At the bottom of the print ad, or at the end of the commercial, words along the lines of "at participating locations... Read more »

I, the defendant, never received any notice from the plaintiff regarding a motion to dismiss my answer that they filed. They have also more recently filed several motions for discovery, none of which I have had any notice of. I only found out by looking up the case in the online records.
Generally yes. You don't say if your case is in Federal court or State court. You also don't say if you are represented by an attorney, but since you are seeking answers online, I presume that you are not represented by one.
If you look at the motions that were filed (that you didn't get... Read more »

If the customer wants to sue someone, who is responsible for the missing pieces in the product?

In other words, they charge $1 for a $.99 items, adding hidden $.01 charge to each item.
There is no requirement that a "99 cents" or "dollar" store charge 99 cents (or a dollar) for items, unless they actually advertise that 99 cents / 1dollar is the price. Most such stores don't do so and often have merchandise that is priced higher than the store name would imply.
As long as... Read more »

Boy, this sure sounds like a first year law school question!
Without knowing the jurisdiction in question, it would be hard to give a definitive answer.
I purchased shoes online and received some that had clearly been used and returned. I am being asked to send them back before anything can be done and that is upsetting me. Do I have to send it back for them to refund my money or help me at all?
It depends on the terms and conditions of the website that you bought the shoes from.
Generally, they can specify what their return policy is, and most websites force you to agree to the terms and conditions before being able to place an order.
Best of luck.
I purchased in2014 and still own it. But have only been able to pay down 3k of the principle since then. My family fell on hard times and it was recently repossessed
