The plaintiff brought a motion on consent to certify a class action against Ticketmaster and Live Nation for settlement purposes.
The claim alleged breach of contract, negligence, and statutory breaches arising from the defendants' failure to provide timely refunds for events postponed or cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The court found that the requirements of section 5(1) of the Class Proceedings Act, 1992 were met and certified the action, approving the proposed notices of settlement approval.
