Ryan Cornateanu v. Stoneledge Furniture, LLC

Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles. Case No. 21STCV09403

If you purchased items from an Ashley HomeStore owned and operated by Stoneledge Furniture, LLC in the State of California between March 9, 2017 and March 27, 2022, you may be entitled to a payment from a class action settlement. 

 

A California state superior court authorized this Settlement Website.

This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.

 

Plaintiff Ryan Cornateanu (“Plaintiff”) filed a class action lawsuit on March 9, 2021, then styled as Ryan Cornateanu v. Ashley Homestores, Ltd., in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles (the “Action”).  On July 28, 2021, Plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint, to name Stoneledge Furniture, LLC (“Stoneledge”) as the defendant in place of Ashley Homestores, Ltd.  The Lawsuit alleges that Stoneledge advertised its “original prices” or “regular prices” in its California stores at an inflated price.  Plaintiff alleges that this conduct violated California’s Unfair Competition Law (Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code. §§ 17200 & 17500, et seq.) and the Consumer Legal Remedies Act (Cal. Civ. C. § 1750, et seq.).  Stoneledge denies all of the claims and allegations in the Action, any wrongdoing, and any liability whatsoever.  Stoneledge further denies 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. 

 

The Court has not determined whether Plaintiff’s claims and allegations have any merit.  Instead, after good-faith negotiations and for the purpose of avoiding the time and expense of further litigation, the ultimate outcome of which is uncertain, and to provide a fair and reasonable resolution of the Action, Plaintiff on behalf of the Class and Stoneledge have agreed to settle the Action and all claims therein for a monetary amount set forth in FAQ #4.  Stoneledge will also provide Settlement Class Members who make a valid and timely claim with a Voucher good for $35.00 off any purchase at a Stoneledge-owned store.  A classwide settlement avoids the costs and risk of a trial, and members of the Settlement Class (those similarly situated to Plaintiff) can receive the available benefits provided by the proposed Settlement.  Plaintiff and Class Counsel, who are attorneys appointed to represent the interests of the Settlement Class, believe the proposed settlement is in the best interest of the Settlement Class.

 

Please read this Notice carefully. Your legal rights will be affected, and you have a choice to make at this time.
