Vinocur v. Premier Accessory Group LLC

Posted: 01/15/2019  browse the case archive
On January 15, 2019, citizen enforcer Laurence Vinocur and settling party Premier Accessory Group LLC (“Premier Accessory”) entered into an out-of-court settlement agreement. Vinocur had alleged that Premier Accessory sold vinyl battery clip grips 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 settlement, Premier Accessory agreed not to sell any vinyl battery clip grips in California after January 17, 2019, unless the grips contain less than 1,000 parts per million of DEHP when analyzed using state or federally approved testing methodologies OR have Proposition 65 warnings provided.
 
The Settlement Agreement requires settlement payments of $15,000, divided therein between civil penalties, 75% of which are paid to California’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment, and compensation to citizen enforcer Vinocur and his counsel for their successful enforcement of this matter in the public interest.
