No. 9572 SUA SPONTE REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION regarding Dkt. No. 9566 - As set forth in the attached ...

Document In re Payment Card Interchange Fee and Merchant Discount Antitrust Litigation, 1:05-md-01720, No. 9572 (E.D.N.Y. Mar. 7, 2025)
To that end, Class Counsel attached a proposed Order to Show Cause directing JAM3STRO to (1) provide a written response to the Court explaining why it should not have all 2,184 purported proofs of authority that JAM3STRO had submitted to Epiq be withdrawn; and (2) pay any expenses incurred due to the fraudulent submissions.
Class Counsel stated that, in light of the above, as well as the fact that much of the documentation submitted by JAM3STRO “does not meet the clear requirements that Epiq has provided regarding proofs of authority[,]” including that contracts be executed, there is “a significant possibility that a fraud is being attempted.” Id. at 3.
The Court is authorized to “take curative action—such as requiring the distribution of corrective notices or entering injunctive relief—where misleading or false statements are made to class members.” Id.; see also Amerisource Corp. v. Rx USA Int’l Inc., No. 02-CV-2514 (JMA), 2010 WL 2730748, at *5 (E.D.N.Y. July 6, 2010), aff’d sub nom.
This power to mitigate bad faith and fraudulent conduct that impedes the adjudication of class action litigation and the claims administration process also emanates from a Court’s authority under Fed. R. Civ.
