Successfully defended a global manufacturer and distributor of commercial motor coaches and related entities against a putative class action pending in the US District Court for the Northern District of California. Plaintiff’s claims arose from alleged manufacturing and design defects of commercial motor coaches manufactured by our client that purportedly rendered them unreliable for service. Plaintiff filed the action on behalf of a putative nationwide class seeking damages to recover the cost of the motor coaches and other damages, with potential exposure in the tens of millions of dollars. We filed a motion to dismiss the class action complaint, resulting in Plaintiff’s decision to voluntarily dismiss the action in its entirety.
