The class action lawsuit entitled John Mancini, et al. v. Ticketmaster revolves around claims that Ticketmaster enrolled consumers into a “Entertainment Rewards” program through a process that was likely to deceive (or trick) people into paying for a online coupon service that cost around $9.00. The $9 charge was placed to the customer credit or debit card they used to purchase tickets at Ticketmaster. The case will be held in California in Courtroom 840, 8th Floor, 255 East Temple Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012.
