In re: SSA Antitrust Litigation Re Defendants: Deutsche Bank AG and Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc. Plaintiffs allege that Defendants colluded and often secretly functioned as a unitary “super-desk” that greatly diminished overall competition in the market and enabled the conspirators to exert influence over the SSA bond market that would be impossible if they had been acting independently. Defendants allegedly undermined competition by engaging in numerous anticompetitive activities, including (a) fixing bond prices offered to investors; (b) strategically coordinating bids to avoid competing with one another; and (c) colluding to share sensitive competitive information with each other. Based on this conduct, Plaintiffs bring federal antitrust claims and state law claims against Defendants for unjust enrichment.

Stoneridge, Inc., Stoneridge Control Devices, Inc. f/k/a Joseph Pollak Corp. (collectively, (“CSID”) Plaintiffs claim that the clutch safety interlock devices (CSIDs) in certain Chrysler vehicles equipped with manual transmissions are defective because they contain return springs that may fatigue. CSIDs operate to prevent ignition unless a vehicle’s clutch pedal is depressed. Plaintiffs claim that fatigued return springs in a CSID can fail such that a driver is able to engage the engine starter motor without the clutch pedal being depressed, which could result in unintended vehicle movement without warning. The same alleged defect could also prevent engine start up without prior warning, which could cause a crash. Plaintiffs allege that Stoneridge is contractually obligated to indemnify owners of vehicles containing the CSIDs for damages they have sustained, namely the need to replace their CSIDs.

Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. and Interblock USA, LLC Plaintiffs allege that the Interblock Organic Dice machines at Pompano Park Casino overcharged a commission on winning “Buy Bets” placed on an electronic craps game. A “Buy Bet” is a particular kind of craps bet that is placed on a specific point (the numbers 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10) and which pays at or near to true odds. A Buy Bet wins when the specific point is rolled and loses when a 7 is rolled. The Plaintiffs claim that instead of charging a 5% commission on the bet amount – as set forth in the Organic Dice’s rules -- the Interblock Organic Dice machines charged a 5% commission on the winnings.
