Dynamic Accident Lawyers: MaritzMayer Garcinia Cambogia Class Action Settlement

Garcinia Cambogia class action settlement

Private Label Nutraceuticals LLC (doing business as MaritzMayer Laboratories) has agreed to settle a class action lawsuit alleging it falsely advertised or misrepresented that some of its Garcinia Cambogia supplements are effective weight loss supplements.

If you purchased Garcinia Cambogia 1300 and/or Garcinia Cambogia 75 in the United States between Nov. 26, 2010 and Jan. 29, 2016, you may be entitled to a refund from the class action settlement.

The Garcinia Cambogia class action lawsuit was filed by plaintiff Stephen Colucci, who alleges that the Garcinia Cambogia 1300 and Garcinia Cambogia 75 products manufactured, marketed, and sold by Private Label Nutraceuticals d/b/a/ MaritzMayer Laboratories were deceptively labeled.

According to the Garcinia Cambogia class action lawsuit, the defendant marketed the products with the following claims: “Supports Appetite Control” and “Inhibits Fat Production.”

“In reality, the Products’ ingredients have never been scientifically substantiated as being able to support appetite control or inhibit fat production, and certainly not to the extent claimed by Defendant,” Calucci alleges in the second amended Garcinia Cambogia class action lawsuit.

“Defendants’ statements about the Products’ efficacy are false and misleading, and Defendant can point to no scientific evidence to support its unfounded claims,” the Garcinia Cambogia class action lawsuit continues. “In reality, the scientific studies and meta-analyses of available studies regarding the ingredients in the Products, show results contrary to Defendants’ claims.”

MaritzMayer stands by its advertising and denies any wrongdoing. However, the company has agreed to settle the Garcinia Cambogia class action lawsuit to avoid the expense, inconvenience and risk associated with ongoing litigation.

In addition to offering refunds to Class Members who purchased the Garcinia Cambogia products, MaritzMayer has also agreed to modify the outer packaging on the products to include the following disclaimer: “Caloric restriction and exercise required to obtain desired results. Results may vary.”

The Garcinia Cambogia class action settlement was preliminarily approved on Nov. 5, 2015.
