Mich. Plaintiff Dismisses Claims vs. Arlo a Week After Judge’s Stern Warning

Plaintiff Lonn Rider and defendant Arlo Technologies have conferred and agree Rider’s fraud class action against Arlo should be voluntarily dismissed without prejudice, said their joint stipulation Tuesday (docket 1:23-cv-00055) in U.S. District Court for Western Michigan. Arlo hasn’t entered into a settlement with Rider in connection with that voluntary dismissal, and neither Rider nor his counsel has received, nor will receive, “any form of consideration” from Arlo in exchange for that dismissal, it said. Rider’s voluntary dismissal came just under a week after U.S. District Court Judge Jane Beckering warned the plaintiff's counsel he would need to file a petition by April 12 explaining why his complaint shouldn’t be dismissed for failure to serve Arlo after 60 days (see 2303160037).
