What happened
This is a proposed class action against Cengage Learning, Inc., a publisher of educational materials. The nature-of-suit code (890 Other Statutory Actions) indicates a federal statutory claim, but the caption and docket text do not reveal the specific factual allegations. Ordinary consumers or students who used Cengage Learning's products or services could plausibly be class members; the allegations have not been proven.
Do you qualify?
