Sauer v. Chase Bank USA, N.A.

U.S. District Court, Northern District of California Case Number CV 09-0809 BZ

Case Type: Nationwide Class Action - Consumer fraud, unfair business practices

Status: Class action filed on February 26, 2009

On February 26, 2009, The Sturdevant Law Firm and Co-Counsel, Donovan Searles, LLC filed a class action on behalf of Chase credit card customers whose credit card terms and conditions were unilaterally changed with little or no notice. Plaintiff Timothy Sauer had transferred his balance to a Chase credit card based on Chase's promise of a low 2.99%-4.99% APR. For several years, Sauer made timely payments of his monthly minimum payment. Recently, Chase more than doubled Sauer's, and thousands of other similarly situated individuals minimum payment and imposed a monthly fee. The lawsuit challenges this unfair business practice and breach of contract.
