This investigation addresses claims that Febreze misrepresents the freshness duration of its products, advertising up to 50 days of freshness (on low) when, in reality, its products may only stay fresh for around 30 days. It is alleged that this discrepancy is misleading and has caused consumers to overpay for a product that doesn’t meet advertised expectations.
This investigation aims to hold Febreze accountable for these claims, seeking compensation for affected consumers and potentially requiring Febreze to adjust its marketing to reflect more accurate product performance.
A class action is a legal case through which one person makes a claim to the Court on behalf of a similarly situated class of people who have the same or a similar legal claim. A class action seeks to hold a defendant or defendants responsible for their conduct that affects each member of the class by resolving issues that are common to the class in the same legal proceeding, instead of each class member bringing a claim individually.
The individual who first files the claim must ask the Court for permission to proceed as a class action. If permission is granted (referred as “authorized” in Quebec, and “certified” in all other Canadian provinces) and the case may proceed as a class action, the Court will appoint an individual as “Representative Plaintiff” to represent the best interests of the class during the litigation and will define the class group. Each person who meets the criteria of the class group is considered a “Class Member”.
