    Carbon Clothing Update: Court Documents

    Posted by Bryan on September 24, 2007

    Some of my friends from the Skinny Moose Network got a hold of the actual court documents for the lawsuit against ALS Enterprises. Here is the entire court document, which includes lists of defendants, allegations, and judge signatures.

    I’ll be sure to keep everyone posted as soon as I hear more updates.

    Also, one important side note. We’ve all seen what can happen when society assumes that allegations are truth. We all need to remain cognizant of the fact that this class-action suit deserves its due process. I’m sure we all have our opinions about carbon-clothing (you can see mine here), but this law-suit may provide the proof we’ve all been looking for (one way or another)!

      Well, this could be interesting!

      I’m in a sarcastic mood this afternoon. I don’t see this one ever making it to court. I’ll predict a settlement involving some “hush money”. After fees, a member of the class might see $25 for the Scent-Lok spacesuit he/she bought. The carbon farce is just too great a money maker to tarnish its reputation in court. If it does ever make it to court, it’ll probably boil down to some technicality rather than getting into scientific details. Can you just imagine… If it doesn’t fit, you must acquit! /groan

      Andy, I had the same thought. Out of court settlements seem to be the norm for major companies. I know many lawyers pride themselves on never setting foot in a court room. I posted earlier that the carbon-clothing industry is worth as much as $100 million annually. I doubt they’ll let it all go to nothing over a lawsuit.

      That being said, this lawsuit is only in one state. Imagine if it goes nationally.

      Good post! Let us know what happens. I vote for an out of court settlement.
