Summary
- A proposed class-action lawsuit has been filed against Costco in California, accusing the retailer of violating the state's Automatic Renewal Law by renewing memberships without adequate notice.
- The lead plaintiff, Russel George, claims that Costco's 60-day email reminder is outside the 45-day notification window mandated by law.
- The lawsuit argues that this lack of timely notice deprived customers of their right to cancel memberships before auto-renewal.
- A preliminary hearing is set for June, which could impact how companies handle membership renewals in California.
