In a 4-3 ruling, the New Jersey Supreme Court issued an important decision in the consumer class action space, effectively sounding the death knell for so-called “no injury” class actions by clarifying the standard for the type of “ascertainable loss” a plaintiff must demonstrate to recover money damages in a private action under the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act, N.J.S.A 56:8-1 et seq. (CFA). Robey v. SPARC Grp., 256 N.J. 541 (2024).

The New Jersey Supreme Court will soon have the opportunity to review Robey v. SPARC Group, 474 N.J. Super. 593 (App. Div. 2023). If affirmed, Robey has the potential to significantly expand the scope of the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act (CFA), N.J.S.A 56:8-1 et seq., by loosening the standards for the “ascertainable loss” that a plaintiff must demonstrate to recover money damages in a private action.
