Smile Direct Club Scores Another Class Action Lawsuit Dismissal
February 24 2020 - 11:06AM
Following the ruling by the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York on February 18, 2020, dismissing
plaintiffs’ putative consumer class action, SmileDirectClub, Inc.
(Nasdaq: SDC) (“SmileDirectClub”) issues the following statement:
“We are pleased that the federal court in New York dismissed the
plaintiffs’ consumer class action. Customer satisfaction is a top
priority for our Company and the network of affiliated dentists and
orthodontists who use our platform to treat customers, and we work
tirelessly together to address the very small percentage of issues
that can arise during treatment. These situations, however,
are rare and not proper for class action suits. This court
decision verifies that these kinds of claims have no place in
court,” said Susan Greenspon-Rammelt, SmileDirectClub Chief Legal
Officer, EVP of Business Affairs and Corporate Secretary. This was
the last consumer class action lawsuit pending against the company
and marks the second time in two months that a consumer class
action complaint against SmileDirectClub has been dismissed in its
entirety.
