In a significant legal development, Walgreens has agreed to a $100 million settlement to address allegations of overcharging insured customers for generic medications. The lawsuit contended that Walgreens did not factor in its Prescription Savings Club (PSC) prices when determining the “usual and customary” rates reported to insurers.

This Walgreens class action lawsuit settlement has been a long time in coming.  This lawsuit was filed eight years ago in 2017.

Apple has agreed to pay $20 million to settle a defective watch class action lawsuit that alleged design defects in several Apple Watch models caused battery swelling, leading to costly damages. The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, claimed that Apple did not allocate enough internal space in certain models to accommodate battery expansion, a known and expected phenomenon in lithium-ion batteries.

As a result, plaintiffs alleged that when the battery swelled, it exerted pressure on the watch’s screen, causing the screen to detach, crack, or shatter entirely. Some users also reported injuries from broken glass when the screen popped off unexpectedly. The lawsuit further accused Apple of failing to properly disclose the risk of battery swelling and not covering the issue under its warranty policy. This was all resolved with a $20 million.  The good news? If you qualify, getting your settlement money will be easy. The bad news is that compensation payouts for victims, as we explain below, is not much.

Minecraft addiction lawsuits have emerged as a prominent legal issue in 2025, spotlighting the ethical concerns surrounding video game design and its impact on young players. With its unparalleled global popularity, Minecraft captivates millions by offering endless creative opportunities and open-world exploration.

These video game addiction lawsuits argue that Minecraft’s design exploits addictive tendencies through gameplay mechanics that encourage prolonged engagement, potentially leading to harmful consequences for children and families. These lawsuits allege Minecraft is addictive by design, raising questions about the dangers of Minecraft and the behavioral problems it may foster in vulnerable users. Allegations suggest that corporate profit motives have driven Mojang and Microsoft to prioritize engagement over player well-being, sparking debate over whether addictive elements in games should be better regulated.

Parents and researchers alike have observed troubling Minecraft addiction symptoms, such as excessive screen time, social withdrawal, and declining academic performance, which have fueled these legal actions.  Families and mental health professionals were asking the question of what makes Minecraft so addictive, exploring its gameplay mechanics and the psychological effects of its design. Studies show that the game’s lack of natural stopping points and reward-driven progression system can make it difficult for children to disengage, leading some to become truly addicted to Minecraft.

Between 1957 and 1987, the water supply at Camp Lejeune, a Marine Corps base in North Carolina, was contaminated with harmful chemicals at exceedingly high levels. Studies have demonstrated that exposure to this contaminated water while residing or working at Camp Lejeune led to the development of cancer, birth defects, and various health issues for numerous individuals. Unfortunately, North Carolina law has prevented these Camp Lejeune victims from pursuing legal action. However, the U.S. Senate is on the verge of passing a new federal law that will allow victims of water contamination at Camp Lejeune to file claims and receive financial compensation.

Where Camp Lejeune Lawsuits Are Going in 2025

We are moving pretty slowly. There are nearly 500,000 claims (many of which are not viable). Almost all these claims are still in the administrative phase with the JAG, where claimants are required to submit evidence of exposure and a connection between their health conditions and the contaminated water. Due to the overwhelming volume of claims coupled with government bureaucracy, this process has created a bottleneck, delaying progress.
