TCG Clients’ Complaints Re: Flame Retardants Proceed in State Court

Last month, Peter Englander, John Moore, and Laurence Vinocur, clients of The Chanler Group, commenced Proposition 65 private enforcement actions against manufacturers, distributors, and retailers of upholstered furniture, alleging that the products offered for sale by these entities  contain the flame retardant TDCPP,  chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer. 

Proposition 65 mandates that companies selling products in California that contain chemicals known to the State to cause cancer, birth defects, or reproductive harm must first provide consumers with a health hazard warning.  Peter Englander, John Moore, and Laurence Vinocur allege that the companies named in their complaints failed to warn consumers of the health hazards associated with TDCPP in their products.
