Playtex/Schering Plough (Sunscreen)
The law offices of Juroviesky LLP have filed a class action lawsuit in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice against the major manufacturers of sunscreen in Canada, including Playtex and Schering-Plough Canada ("defendants").
The suit claims that the Defendants deceptively marketed and/or mislabeled their sunscreen products by misrepresenting their protective and useful qualities, resulting in unjust enrichment for the Defendants at the expense of possible danger to consumers.
Juroviesky and Ricci LLP are seeking to pursue statutory and common law remedies against the Defendant for breaches of the Consumer Protection Act.
