As we reported a few days ago, several law firms were eyeing the possibility of a lawsuit against Research in Motion over the recent outage. It looks like the lawsuit has been filed. Yawn.
CONSUMER LAW GROUP has launched a national class action lawsuit against Research in Motion ("RIM") on behalf of individuals who have a BlackBerry smartphone and who paid for a monthly data plan but were unable to access their email, BlackBerry Messenger service (“BBM”), and/or internet for the period of October 11 to 14, 2011.
The class action involves RIM's failure to take action to either directly compensate BlackBerry users or to indirectly compensate BlackBerry users by arranging for wireless service providers to refunds their customers and to take full responsibility for these damages.
