If You Purchased Certain Clover Valley Ground Coffee Product(s) from Dollar General Between January 1, 2015 and April 1, 2021, A Class Action Settlement May Affect Your Rights.
A proposed Settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit (“Lawsuit”) known as Mike Allen, et al. v. Dolgencorp, LLC, et al., Case No. SUCV2020000385, pending in the Superior Court of White County, Georgia.
The lawsuit claims that Dollar General Corporation and Dolgencorp, LLP (“Dollar General”) deceptively and unlawfully labeled, packaged, and marketed Dollar General's Clover Valley ground coffee Products by overstating the amount of coffee each container can actually make. Plaintiffs contend that Dollar General's Clover Valley ground coffee Products do not contain enough ground coffee to make the stated number of cups when following the brewing instructions on the Product label. Dollar General has denied any wrongdoing.

Dollar General has agreed to change its Labeling practices and will provide up to a maximum up to $3,100,000 to pay Valid Claims, an Attorneys’ Fees and Costs Award, and Administrative Expenses. Settlement Class Members can get up to $0.85 per Product purchased up to a maximum of 4 purchased Products per household, for a maximum of $3.40 without Proof of Purchase, and up to $0.85 per Product purchased up to a maximum of 20 for which a valid Proof of Purchase has been provided, up to a maximum of $17.00 per household.
