A class action lawsuit accuses a liquor store of sending unsolicited text messages to consumers even after they have opted out of the service.
Jamil Hindi is the named plaintiff in the federal lawsuit filed against Primo Liquors & Fine Wine LLC.
The complaint alleges the liquor store's actions are in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act.
The suit claims Primo Liquors uses these unsolicited texts to promote its goods and services and continues to send them even after consumers have opted out. It also accuses the company of engaging in telemarketing without having the required policies and procedures in place or properly training its personnel.
Hindi is seeking injunctive relief to halt Primo Liquor's alleged unlawful conduct, which he says has resulted in an invasion of privacy, harassment, aggravation, and disruption of daily life for him and other class members. He also is seeking statutory damages on behalf of himself and other members of the class.
