Heading: Consumers Legal Remedies Act

Text: 25 California's Consumer Legal Remedies Act provides that [a]ny consumer who suffers any damage as a result of the use or employment by any person of a method, act, or practice declared to be unlawful by Section 1770 may bring an action against such person for actual damages, injunctive relief, restitution of property, punitive damages, and other relief that the court deems proper. Cal.Civ.Code Sec. 1780(a). Freeman claims that Time violated the prohibition on [r]epresenting that a transaction confers or involves rights, remedies, or obligations which it does not have or involve, or which are prohibited by law. Cal.Civ.Code Sec. 1770(n). According to Freeman, the promotion falsely represents that the reader has won and thus been conferred certain rights. As discussed above, when read reasonably and in context, the promotion makes no such false representation. 4 26 Freeman's complaint does not state a claim under the California Consumer Legal Remedies Act and the district court's dismissal of this claim is also affirmed. 27 AFFIRMED.
