Englander v. Prima Marketing Inc.

Posted: 02/09/2018  browse the case archive

On February 9, 2018, citizen enforcer Peter Englander and settling party Prima Marketing Inc. (“Prima Marketing”) entered into an out-of-court settlement agreement. Englander had alleged that Prima Marketing sold cuffs or bracelets containing the heavy metal lead in the State of California without providing the requisite health hazard warnings.

As part of the settlement, Prima Marketing agreed not to sell any cuffs or bracelets in California after February 7, 2018, unless the products contain less than 90 parts per million of lead when analyzed using state or federally approved testing methodologies.

The Settlement Agreement requires settlement payments of $29,000, divided therein between civil penalties, 75% of which are paid to California’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment, and compensation to citizen enforcer Englander and his counsel for their successful enforcement of this matter in the public interest.
