How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- concluding that laptop computers were not unfit for ordinary use, where they may fail to boot, randomly restart, generally underperform, have software failure, overheat, crash and even catch fire, as the computers could still be used as computers as were not unmerchantable
- stating that a defective or inadequate power supply can cause the system to experience performance and system instability, including “random reboots or hangs” and “Mandona application crashes or hangs” as well as display corruption and abnormality
- plaintiff failed to state a claim under unfair prong of UCL in part because he did “not reference any established public policy that [defendant’s] actions” violated
- statements that a laptop delivers “ultra-reliable performance,” “full power and 14 performance,” “versatile, reliable systems,” and were “packed with power” and “delivers the 15 power you need” were not actionable
- generalized misrepresentations insufficient to plead California UCL, FAL, and CLRA claims
- no sufficient nexus where \Plaintiff does not allege any explanation for how a lack of sufficient power causes laptops to catch fire\ and \provides no explanation that clearly links the alleged insufficient power of the laptops to their catching fire\
