Moore v. TMI Acquisition, LLC

Posted: 10/12/2018  browse the case archive
The parties involved in the case Moore v. TMI Acquisition, LLC executed a Consent Judgment on October 12, 2018.  In this matter, citizen enforcer John Moore alleged that TMI Acquisition, LLC, doing business as TMI International (“TMI”) sold vinyl/PVC stickers containing the phthalate chemical di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate ("DEHP") in the State of California without providing the requisite health hazard warnings.  
 
As part of the agreement, TMI agreed not to sell any vinyl/PVC stickers in California after the Marin County Superior Court approves the Judgment, unless the watch bands contain less than 1,000 parts of million of DEHP when analyzed using state or federally approved testing methodologies.
 
The Consent Judgment required settlement payments of up to $33,100, divided therein between civil penalties, 75% of which are paid to California’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment, and compensation to whistleblower Moore and his counsel for their successful enforcement of this matter in the public interest.
