EXCLUSIVE: James Arthur Ray Class Action Suit in the Works

March 18, 2010 at 5:19 pm

We’ve promised to keep the identities secret, but The Rat is hearing rumblings from reliable sources of a class action lawsuit that’s in the works against James Ray International.

At stake:  hundreds of thousands – if not millions – of dollars.

The claim:  That Ray and his Raybots are conspiring to withhold any refunds due to the people who paid in advance for his costly conferences and seminars, and who have tried desperately and unsuccessfully to reach Ray or his legal eagles to demand a refund.

One of The Rat’s sources compares it to the O.J. Simpson situation.  Even though he was acquitted of murder during a criminal trial, a civil court found Simpson guilty of wrongful death and awarded the Goldmans and Browns millions.  To date, neither family’s been able to collect the awarded amount, but they’ve managed to make Simpson’s life pretty miserable.

So it would appear that even if James Arthur Ray manages to get an acquittal on the three manslaughter charges he’ll face in court this fall, his troubles won’t be over.

Note to those of you who paid up front for JRI events that didn’t happen, and feel you have no recourse against Ray:  Keep an ear to the ground for future information on the class action suit.

Hey Rat, [name redacted] and I have heard the same rumors about a James Arthur Ray Class Action Law Suit. The person [name redacted] has been chatting with says it’s only a matter of time before it is filed.

There is definitely one in the works on this end. Is is possible there are 2?

To my knowledge there is only one going, and as soon as it is filed, which will be soon, and determined by the courts as a class action then it will be made public. Just because it is filed as one does not automatically make it one. It is up to the judge to determine if it will be a class action.
Be patient…More to come…stay tuned.

How do I get listed on the class action lawsuit since I too prepaid for an event and would love to have my money back.

Thank you!
