Online vape retailers, manufacturers, and labeling laboratories are at the center of a proposed class action lawsuit, which claims that consumers were misled into purchasing vape pens containing levels of hemp-derived delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9 THC) that exceed the legal threshold.

The lawsuit, initiated by lead plaintiff Hannah Ledbetter, asserts that she bought delta-8 vape pens from Cloud 9 Online Smoke & Vape LLC under the impression that the product labels accurately represented their contents. This case was brought forth on Tuesday to the US District Court for the Northern District of Georgia.

According to the legal filing, Ledbetter had the purchased vape pens subjected to laboratory analysis, which purportedly revealed that the actual THC content far exceeded the amounts stated on their labels, showing a delta-9 THC concentration higher than the legally allowed limit of 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis.

The answer to this question varies depending on the specific class action settlement. Carefully review the claim filing instructions to determine whether proof of purchase is necessary when submitting your claim form.

Certain class action settlements specifically require certain forms of proof from claimants, such as a store receipt, product packaging, or another court-approved document, to support your claim for an award. However, many other settlements do not require proof of purchase for participation.

In some settlements, you may have the option to choose whether to include proof of purchase with your claim form. Typically, class members who furnish proof of purchase are eligible for a higher payout compared to those who do not provide evidence of their product or service acquisition.
