LOUIS L. STANTON, U.S.D.J.

In this consumer fraud class action, the plaintiffs claim that, by marketing Diet Coke as "diet," The Coca-Cola Company *248("Coca-Cola") misleads consumers into believing that drinking Diet Coke will assist in weight loss or healthy weight management.

The plaintiffs filed the original complaint on October 16, 2017, which Coca-Cola moved to dismiss.
