The class action lawsuit alleges that Sony Pictures Entertainment Inc. (?Sony Pictures?) advertised Hollow Man, Vertical Limit, A Knight?s Tale, and The Animal using quotations attributed to ?David Manning? or ?Dave Manning? and incorrectly indicated that Mr. Manning was affiliated with The Ridgefield Press; and that Sony Pictures advertised The Patriot using endorsements of persons who were its employees without disclosing that they were its employees.
To make a claim, you must sign a statement under penalty of perjury under the laws of California and of the United States that, between August 3, 2000 and October 31, 2001, you purchased a ticket to and attended a United States theatrical exhibition of Hollow Man, Vertical Limit, A Knight?s Tale, The Animal and/or The Patriot.
Class Members will be paid a maximum per-ticket claim amount of five dollars ($5.00) out of a total Claims Fund of $750,000 such that all claim amounts will be proportionately reduced, after deduction of administrative costs, if Class Members submit claims for more than 150,000 tickets.
