SEATTLE, May 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- JND Class Action Administration

A class action lawsuit is currently pending against Quincy Bioscience, LLC (Defendant) that includes Prevagen Regular Strength, Prevagen Extra Strength, and Prevagen Mixed Berry Chewable products (Prevagen Products) purchased by California residents. The lawsuit claims that the Defendant falsely labels and/or represents its Prevagen Products as providing, among other things, brain health and memory benefits. The Defendant denies all the Plaintiff's claims. The Court has not decided who is right and who is wrong.

Am I a Class Member?

The Court has allowed the following classes to proceed to trial:

The Unfair Competition Law class consists of: All California consumers who, within the time period of January 21, 2011 to May 7, 2019, purchased Prevagen Regular Strength, Prevagen Extra Strength, or Prevagen Mixed Berry Chewable.

The Consumers Legal Remedies Act class consists of: All California consumers who, within the time period of January 21, 2012 to May 7, 2019, purchased Prevagen Regular Strength, Prevagen Extra Strength, or Prevagen Mixed Berry Chewable.

What Am I Eligible to Receive?

No money is available now and there's no guarantee that there will be. The Court has not decided whether the Defendant did anything wrong and the two sides have not settled the case. If a settlement is reached, or if the lawyers prove their claims at trial, Class Members will then be notified how to get benefits.

What are My Options?
