Darnall et al. v. Dude Products, Inc.

• A Settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit against Dude Products, Inc. Plaintiffs Josefina Darnall, George Wyant, Cheryl Rutkowski, and Dexter Cobb (collectively, the “Class Representatives”) allege that they were misled into believing that Dude Wipes branded wipes were “flushable.”  Dude Products, Inc. claims its products are flushable.  Thus, Dude Products, Inc. denies any wrongdoing and denies the Class Representatives’ allegations. The Court has not determined who is right.  Rather, the Parties have agreed to settle the lawsuit to avoid the uncertainties and expenses associated with ongoing litigation.

• You are included if you purchased an individual or multi-pack Dude Wipes Products during the Class Period between February 5, 2015, and August 8, 2023.
