Case Name
Park, et al. v. Zuffa LLC d/b/a Ultimate Fighting Championship and UFCCase No. 2:17-cv-02282-APG-VCF
U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada
Case Summary
Shortly after the August 26, 2017 Pay-Per-View boxing matches featuring Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Conor McGregor (the “Event”), certain consumers (“Plaintiffs”) filed five putative class action lawsuits against Defendants in United States District Courts across the country, alleging that Defendants’ system suffered from a defect preventing purchasers of the online streaming of the Event from being able to watch some or all the Event. The five putative class action lawsuits have been consolidated into a single action pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada, titled Park, et al. v. Zuffa, LLC, d/b/a Ultimate Fighting Championship and UFC, et al., Case No. 17-cv-02282-APG-VCF (D. Nev.) (the “Action”). In their Complaint, Plaintiffs have asserted certain claims, including those for breach of contract and for violation of applicable consumer protection laws, and sought refunds, damages and other relief from Defendants.
Defendants deny each of the allegations of unlawful conduct, any wrongdoing, and any liability whatsoever, and no court or other entity has made any judgment or other determination of liability. Defendants further deny that any Class Member is entitled to any relief and, other than for settlement purposes, that this Action is appropriate for certification as a class action.
This Settlement represents a compromise of highly disputed legal and factual issues that the parties disagree about. As with any compromise of disputed issues, neither party obtained everything they sought and asked the Court to award.
