BANK OF AMERICA, N.A.
filed by Read Legal LLC · No. 2:26-cv-04987 · 15:1681 Fair Credit Reporting Act
Outlook: adverse · est. $500K–$18M ▾
Both comparable rulings resulted in dismissal of consumer-credit claims: Eiler upheld inclusion of settlement in income (rejecting FCRA fee-shifting argument) and Grimes dismissed FDCPA/CSPA counterclaims outright. No comparable ruling shows a case surviving to merits, though sample is only two rulings.
Est. value $500K–$18M = P(survival) × class × per-member
Survival: ~0-30% — 0 of 2 comparable rulings resulted in claims surviving dismissal
Class size: 10,000–2,000,000 — BofA's scale (23-26B digital interactions/yr) implies large affected population, but actual class definition unknown
Per member: $50–$300 — FCRA/FDCPA statutory range $100-1000 discounted ~20-30% to typical realized settlement fraction
Key precedent: Portfolio Recovery v. Grimes — direct FDCPA counterclaim dismissed, most analogous procedural posture to a new FDCPA/FCRA filing.
Main risk: Courts in comparables dismissed FCRA/FDCPA claims on threshold/jurisdictional grounds, as in Grimes, before reaching damages.
Only 2 comparable rulings (both adverse) and 2 unrelated settlements; true class size and certification odds are speculative. · grounded in 2 rulings + 2 settlements

filed by Law Office of Pelayo Duran, PA · Judge Julie Sneed · No. 6:26-cv-01536 · Americans with Disabilities Act
Outlook: uncertain · est. –$75K ▾
Price v. Diab shows fee-shifting entitlement for prevailing ADA plaintiffs can be reversed on appeal, creating uncertainty even after default judgment. No settlement data exists for this defendant or theory, limiting benchmarking.
Est. value –$75K = P(survival) × class × per-member
Survival: ~50% — 1 of 1 comparable ruling shows mixed outcome (injunction affirmed, fees reversed)
Class size: 1–5 — ADA Title III cases are typically individual/small group actions, not large classes; no class-size web signals apply
Per member: $0–$15000 — ADA Title III lacks statutory damages; recovery is injunctive relief plus attorney's fees, discounted for fee-shifting risk
Key precedent: Price v. Diab (9th Cir.) - shows attorney's fee entitlement under ADA can be reversed even after injunctive relief is affirmed, raising recovery uncertainty.
Main risk: Fee-shifting entitlement itself may be reversed on appeal, as in Price v. Diab, even after injunctive relief is secured.
Single comparable ruling and no settlement data severely limit reliability; ADA Title III cases rarely proceed as class actions. · grounded in 1 rulings + 0 settlements

Outlook: mixed · est. $2.50M–$80M ▾
KetoNatural shows false advertising claims can survive 12(b)(6) if statements are literally false commercial speech, but Mehl shows preemption/field-specific defenses can doom claims outright. No prior Honda advertising rulings exist to calibrate risk further.
Est. value $2.50M–$80M = P(survival) × class × per-member
Survival: ~50-60% — 2 of 3 comparable false advertising rulings allowed claims to proceed at least in part
Class (from complaint): Owners or lessees of 2018-2022 Honda Accords, 2016-2022 Honda Civics, and 2017-2022 Honda CR-Vs equipped with the 1.5-liter i-VTEC turbocharged gasoline direct injection
Class size: 50,000–2,000,000 — Honda's large US vehicle sales volume; scope depends on specific model/advertising claim at issue
Per member: $50–$400 — Price-premium restitution theory, discounted to ~10-20% of nominal statutory/economic harm per settlement patterns
Key precedent: KetoNatural v. Hill's Pet Nutrition — shows false advertising claims survive when defendant's own statements are plausibly literally false commercial speech.
Main risk: Preemption or failure to plead literal falsity/actionable commercial speech, as in Mehl and part of KetoNatural (non-party statements dismissed).
Small comparable sample, no defendant-specific history, and class size/per-member figures are rough estimates absent case-specific product/claim details. · grounded in 4 rulings + 8 settlements

META PLATFORMS, INC.
filed by Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP · No. 1:26-cv-02493 · 42:1396 - Tort Negligence
Outlook: uncertain · est. $15M–$70M ▾
No prior rulings exist for Privacy & Wiretap theory, so survival odds are unmodeled; comparable settlements (Google $68M, Flo $59.5M) show large tech-privacy cases settle high but only after surviving early motions.
Est. value $15M–$70M = P(survival) × class × per-member
Survival: insufficient data — no comparable rulings on record for this theory
Class size: 100,000,000–300,000,000 — US-based Meta MAU/DAU subset per Statista/Meta Q4 2025 report
Per member: $0.1–$0.3 — CIPA-style $5,000 statutory anchor discounted ~0.005% to match realized settlement scale in comps
Key precedent: None on record for this theory; Google/Flo settlements suggest wiretap-style claims against major platforms are viable enough to reach settlement.
Main risk: Class certification and Article III standing challenges, common in wiretap suits absent concrete harm allegations
Small sample of settlements, no rulings, and mismatch between statutory anchors and actual per-member payouts limit precision. · grounded in 0 rulings + 8 settlements

Outlook: uncertain · est. $1M–$60M ▾
No rulings exist yet for this theory, so we rely solely on settlement comps like Google ($68M) and Flo ($59.5M), which show wiretap/privacy claims often resolve rather than get dismissed outright.
Est. value $1M–$60M = P(survival) × class × per-member
Survival: ~50% — no direct rulings; inferred from mixed settlement outcomes (5 of 7 settled meaningfully, 2 at $0)
Class size: 500,000–5,000,000 — Dollar General's nationwide retail footprint and large digital/app customer base per web signals
Per member: $2–$40 — CIPA-style $5,000 statutory anchor discounted ~99% to realized class settlement fraction seen in comparable cases
Key precedent: None on record; closest analog is Google/Flo settlements showing large tech-retail privacy claims typically settle in $47-68M range.
Main risk: Two of seven comparable settlements (Google Play, Barefoot Dreams) resolved for $0, showing dismissal or de minimis exposure is plausible.
No rulings or defendant history exist; estimate rests entirely on cross-theory settlement comps and rough class-size inference. · grounded in 0 rulings + 7 settlements

Citizens Debt Relief, LLC
filed by Sulaiman Law Group · Judge Virginia Maria Hernandez Covington · No. 8:26-cv-02028 · 15:1681 Fair Credit Reporting Act
Outlook: uncertain · est. $100K–$7.50M ▾
No prior rulings exist for Privacy & Wiretap claims against this defendant, so survival odds are unanchored. Comparable settlements (Google $68M, Flo $59.5M) involve mass-scale tech/health platforms, not a small debt-relief company, limiting analogical value.
Est. value $100K–$7.50M = P(survival) × class × per-member
Survival: ~40-50% — no direct rulings; comparable theory shows mixed settlement outcomes including zero-recovery cases
Class size: 5,000–50,000 — Debt-relief company with BBB/LinkedIn presence but no evidence of mass consumer base like tech platforms
Per member: $20–$150 — CIPA-style $5,000 statutory max discounted heavily per typical wiretap class realization (~1-3%)
Key precedent: None on record; closest analogues (Flo, Google) involve health/location data at far larger scale, limiting direct applicability.
Main risk: Two of seven comparable settlements resolved at $0.0M (Google Play, Barefoot Dreams), showing wiretap claims can fail entirely.
Small sample, no rulings/prior records for defendant, and class size is inferred, not confirmed. · grounded in 0 rulings + 7 settlements
