Ramos v. Amazon.com, Inc.

Amazon.com, Inc. (Amazon) moved to dismiss a greenwashing class action alleging that the company misled consumers by not disclosing that Amazon Private Brand Paper Products “are composed of wood pulp sourced from harvests that rely on harmful logging practices such as clear-cutting and burning Canada’s boreal forest.” Amazon argued that the plaintiffs failed to plausibly and specifically allege unfair or deceptive conduct under the Washington Consumer Protection Act or fraudulent concealment. In addition, Amazon argued that plaintiffs should not be allowed to toll the statute of limitations for any surviving claims. Amazon also asked the court to strike putative class claims and allegations.
