Kardashians Have to Answer to Diet Pill Law Suit

Reality TV star, Kim Kardashian as well as her two sisters have been hit with a $5 million lawsuit.
It alleges that they and the makers of Quick-Trim diet pills falsely marketed the product’s effectiveness for the purposes of losing weight.
The lawsuit criticises the sisters’ endorsement deal of the product with the weight loss company. Four plaintiffs filed the case at the federal court in New York.
The plaintiffs live in New York, California and Florida and assert in their lawsuit that the claims made by Quick-Trim and by the Kardashians marketing were “false, misleading, and unsubstantiated.”
They added there was “no competent and reliable scientific evidence supporting any of these claims.”
The lawsuit stated that the main pill ingredient is a sizeable dose of caffeine, combined with herbal ingredients never clinically proven as effective.
The law firm, Bursor and Fisher, has taken the action, however, it needs to be certified by a judge as a class-action complaint before it can be taken to cover a wider field of consumers as opposed to four plaintiffs. The suit is seeking over $5 million in damages.
A Kardashians representative and Quick-Trim officials were not available for comment regarding the lawsuit.
