Backdating Class Action Certified in Orange County

Rosner, Barry & Babbitt, LLP’s Auto Fraud Legal Center is pleased to announce that the Orange County Superior Court, Honorable Gail Andler presiding, certified a class action lawsuit against Fladeboe VW and VW Credit.  The lawsuit, entitled Mariotti v. Fladeboe VW, et al, Case No. 30-2008-00113991-CU-FR-CJC, revolves around Fladeboe VW’s practice of dating subsequent contracts the same day as original contracts.  A subclass of consumers whose contracts were assigned to VW Credit was also certified.  Ms. Mariotti alleges that Fladeboe VW made improper financial disclosures on her contract by backdating the contract and making the disclosures based on her original contract date, rather than her subsequent contract date.  It is believed the case affects between 20-25 persons who purchased vehicles from Fladeboe VW between 2004 and 2008.  The case has not yet been set for trial.  For more information about the case, contact Hawk Barry at 800-466-5366 or hawk@rbblawgroup.com.
