Tower Health (3rd Cir.) — dismissal of pixel-tracking privacy claim shows courts often reject these absent concrete disclosure harm. Main risk: Dismissal for failure to show unauthorized interception/disclosure beyond ordinary website analytics, as in Tower Health. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $1.50M–$29M Small, heterogeneous comparable set mixes BIPA, wiretap, and confidentiality claims; true class size and statute invoked are unconfirmed. · grounded in 9 rulings, 10 settlements, 4 verdicts | Filing | Privacy & Wiretap | N.D.

| Boeing Company, Thesource ↗ filed by Wukela Law Firm · Judge Richard Mark Gergel · No. 2:26-cv-05037 · 42:2000 Job Discrimination (Race) · view case timeline → Comparable settlements $59.50M–$725M ▾Comparable privacy/wiretap rulings split roughly evenly: Bayhealth and Gunnar Optiks survived on confidentiality/BIPA theories, while Santoro, Walker, and Cisneros were dismissed on similar data-sharing or consent claims. No direct Boeing precedent exists, so outcome likely turns on specific statutory pleading and consent facts. Comparable settlements $59.50M–$725M median $115M · n=10 Meta $725M · Google $425M · Apple $250M Per member (realized): ~$29 median · $29–$29 (n=2) Comparable verdict: Google LLC $425.70M · Google LLC $425.65M Key precedent: Doe v. Bayhealth Medical Ctr. — shows confidentiality/privacy claims against institutional defendants can survive MTD when a duty-based relationship is pled. Main risk: Dismissal for failure to plead concrete harm or lack of interception/consent facts, as in Cisneros and Santoro. This defendant: Prior Boeing class certification was reversed in a false advertising case, suggesting courts scrutinize Boeing class claims closely. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $145K–$1.50M Small, non-direct comparable set; Boeing-specific facts, class definition, and claim mechanism (wiretap vs. biometric) unknown, limiting precision. · grounded in 9 rulings, 10 settlements, 4 verdicts | Filing | Privacy & Wiretap | D.S.C. | 2026-10-22 | $59.50M–$725M comparable settlements |

| T-Mobile USA, Inc.source ↗ filed by Justice Litigation Associates, PLLC · No. 8:26-cv-03221 · 42:2000e Job Discrimination (Employment) · view case timeline → Comparable settlements $59.50M–$725M ▾Privacy claims survive when plaintiffs plead a specific duty or unauthorized data-sharing (Doe v. Bayhealth, survived; Clements v. Gunnar, vacated for trial), but dismissed where courts find exemptions or insufficient particularity (Santoro v. Tower Health, Walker v. Fidelity, Cisneros v. Nuance). T-Mobile has no prior privacy-wiretap win/loss on record, only a pending similar suit (Rucker), making outcome uncertain. Comparable settlements $59.50M–$725M median $115M · n=10 Meta $725M · Google $425M · Apple $250M Per member (realized): ~$29 median · $29–$29 (n=2) Comparable verdict: Google LLC $425.70M · Google LLC $425.65M Key precedent: Doe v. Bayhealth Medical Ctr. — confidentiality claim against data-sharing survived MTD, showing viability of similar unauthorized-disclosure theories against T-Mobile. Main risk: Dismissal for lack of particularized harm or statutory exemption, as in Santoro v. Tower Health and Cisneros v. Nuance (BIPA financial-institution exemption). This defendant: Second privacy/wiretap suit against T-Mobile in short span suggests recurring data-handling exposure, not yet tested at trial. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $607.50M–$2.05B Small sample of rulings, no T-Mobile-specific outcome data, and settlement/class figures assume full certification and high claim uptake. · grounded in 9 rulings, 10 settlements, 4 verdicts | Filing | Privacy & Wiretap | M.D. Fla. | 2026-10-22 | $59.50M–$725M comparable settlements |

Question · view case timeline → Comparable settlements $2.40M–$100M ▾Comparable FCRA furnisher claims often fail for lack of private right of action (Minano v. DLJ Mortgage), while disclosure-based FCRA claims can survive (Askins v. CRST). Wells Fargo's repeat appearance in FCRA/FDCPA filings (Dhillon, Seckel) suggests recurring but fact-specific exposure. Comparable settlements $2.40M–$100M median $7.86M · n=10 Equifax $100M · Equifax $30M · Equifax Informatio $30M Per member (realized): ~$250 median · $25–$500 (n=5) Comparable verdict: TransUnion $60M · TransUnion, LLC $40M Key precedent: Minano v. DLJ Mortgage Capital — shows furnisher FCRA claims (like Wells Fargo's) frequently dismissed absent private right of action or insufficient pleading. Main risk: Dismissal for lack of private right of action under specific FCRA provisions, as in Minano, or insufficient pleading of furnisher duties. This defendant: Wells Fargo has multiple concurrent FCRA/FDCPA filings (Dhillon, Seckel), suggesting systemic credit-reporting dispute exposure. Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $2.25M–$112.50M Small, heterogeneous comparable set; actual class size and claim viability highly fact-dependent on specific FCRA/FDCPA theory pled. · grounded in 10 rulings, 10 settlements, 2 verdicts | Filing | Consumer Credit (FCRA/FDCPA) | E.D.

| AFA Stores, LLCsource ↗ filed by KJC Law Group, A.P.C. · No. 2:26-cv-12340 · 28:1332 Diversity-Fraud · view case timeline → Comparable settlements $200M–$688M ▾No false-advertising-specific comparable exists; analogous consumer-protection rulings split, with Cetorelli affirming CSPA violations while Guthrie denied UCL class certification for individualized representations. AFA Stores is a small regional furniture retailer, limiting both exposure and plausible per-member recovery relative to the mega-settlements cited. Comparable settlements $200M–$688M median $225M · n=10 Merck & Co. Inc. a $688M · Toyota Industries $436M · Toyota Industries $299.50M Per member (realized): ~$2,500 median · $2,500–$2,500 (n=1) Comparable verdict: Papaya $420M · VPX, Inc. $293M Key precedent: Guthrie v. Transamerica Life Ins. Co. — shows UCL-style false advertising claims often fail class certification absent uniform misrepresentations, a likely defense angle here. Main risk: Class certification denial on individualized reliance/communication grounds, as in Guthrie v. Transamerica Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $62K–$7.50M No direct false-advertising comparables; settlement/verdict data drawn from vastly larger corporate defendants, so figures are only loosely transferable to AFA Stores' scale. · grounded in 10 rulings, 10 settlements, 9 verdicts | Filing | False Advertising | C.D.
