Judge Gives Citysearch Class Action Green Light

From MediaPost:

Dealing a blow to IAC, a federal judge has decided that disgruntled online marketers can proceed with a class-action click-fraud lawsuit against the company.

U.S. District Court Judge Christina Snyder in Los Angeles ruled that the search marketers could be certified as a class because their complaints against IAC stemmed from the same type of alleged conduct.

“Plaintiffs advertised using Citysearch’s pay-per-click advertising program and were allegedly charged by Citysearch for invalid clicks,” Snyder wrote. “Notwithstanding any asserted differences between class members, plaintiffs’ claims are based on an alleged common course of conduct.”
