Setyan Law, APC. and Ratner Molineaux, LLP Secure a Unanimous Federal Jury Verdict Against Costco in a Disability Discrimination Case Setyan Law, APC. announced that founder and employment trial attorney Sam Setyan along with Shelley Molineaux and David Ratner of Ratner Molineux, LLP secured a unanimous 12-0 federal jury verdict against Costco Wholesale Corporation in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of former employee Aaron Talamantes, who alleged Costco discriminated against him after he disclosed disabilities and requested workplace accommodations. The jury awarded $200,000 in damages following trial, and attorneys' fees are expected to substantially increase Costco's total financial exposure in the case. The lawsuit centered on allegations that Costco failed to accommodate Talamantes, a probationary employee, after he disclosed PTSD, anxiety, and limitations stemming from a prior ankle injury requiring surgical hardware. Mr. Talamantes informed management about his conditions shortly after being hired and requested reasonable accommodations, including short breaks during PTSD-related panic attacks and restrictions on heavy lifting. Costco denied ever knowing about Mr. Talamantes' PTSD until after the termination decision was made. His Costco managers interpreted a doctors' note stating "No lifting. No heavy lifting" to mean that Mr. Talamantes could not even lift a receipt and forced him on unpaid leave. Approximately a week later, Mr. Talamantes secured another doctor's note that cleared him to return to work without restrictions but also stated that his ankle injury was interfering with his ability to work. Costco never bothered to follow up with Mr. Talamantes about that note. In a ruling denying most of Costco's motion for summary judgment before trial, Chief U.S. District Judge Richard Seeborg found substantial factual disputes existed regarding whether Costco managers knew about Talamantes' disabilities, whether the company failed to engage in a good-faith interactive process, and whether Costco's stated reasons for termination were pretextual. The case is Talamantes v. Costco Wholesale Corporation, Case No. 24-cv-00789, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Announcement • Apr 17

Consumers Represented by the Almeida Law Group Files Class Action Against Costco Wholesale Corporation Two California consumers have filed a nationwide class action lawsuit against Costco Wholesale Corporation, alleging the retail giant has misled million of shoppers by falsely advertising its popular Kirkland Signature Seasoned Rotisserie Chicken as containing ‘no preservatives,’ despite formulating the product with added preservatives that extend shelf life and maintain texture Filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California, the complaint asserts that Costco has ‘systemically cheated customers out of tens if not hundreds of million of dollars’ by prominently marketing the Rotisserie Chicken as preservative–free in stores and online while adding sodium phosphate and carrageenan ingredients that function as preservatives. Prominent ‘No Preservatives’ Claims Allegedly Misled Shoppers According to the lawsuit, Costco displays large in store signage and online product listings stating ‘No Preservatives,’ without qualification. Plaintiffs Bianca Johnston of Big Bear, California and Anatasia Chernov of Escondido, California say they relied on these representations when purchasing the product, believing the chicken contained no additives that preserve taste, texture, or shelf life. The complaint alleges that Costco's representations were false and misleading because sodium phosphate and carrageenanboth added to the Rotisserie Chicken perform preservative functions by inhibiting spoilage, stabilizing proteins, and extending shelf stability. Consumers Increasingly Seek Transparency in Food Ingredients The lawsuit cites industry research showing that consumers place significant weight on preservative–related claims and increasingly seek ‘clean label’ products free from additives. Plaintiffs allege that Costco capitalized on this trend while concealing the true nature of its product. Claims Under Washington and California Consumer Protection Laws The complaint brings claims under: Washington Consumer Protection Act, California Consumers Legal Remedies Act, California Unfair Competition Law, California False Advertising Law. Plaintiffs seek injunctive relief, restitution, damages, and disgorgement of profits obtained through Costco's misleading marketing. Both plaintiffs allege they would not have purchased the Rotisserie Chicken or would have paid less had Costco disclosed that the product contains added preservatives. They also state they intend to purchase the product again in the future if it is actually preservative free but cannot rely on Costco's representations unless they are truthful. Announcement • Jan 16
