How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- noting that New York courts have largely interpreted \deceptive acts or practices\ by looking at the definition of \deceptive acts and practices\ under the FTC Act
- enforcing the Donnelly Act and the New York Deceptive Practices Act, N.Y. Gen. Bus. Law § 349
- \[C]ourts have found sufficient allegations of injury to the public interest where plaintiffs plead repeated acts of deception directed at a broad group of individuals.\
- public interest element sufficiently pled where defendants engaged in a scheme to manipulate public stamp auctions, and injured parties included unsophisticated, individual sellers
- upholding claims where tainted stamp auctions harmed unwary “marketplace participants”
- “courts have consistently held that section 63(12) authorizes the New York Attorney General to recover for non-residents injured by wrongdoing that occurred in New York,” and “[t]he damages available under the Donnelly Act are irrelevant when proceeding under section 63(12
