Parties in Peacock Fraud Case Seek 60-Day Stay to Pursue Resolution

Plaintiff Holly Winston and defendant Peacock TV seek a 60-day stay of all case deadlines through Feb. 20 while the parties “explore the possibility of a resolution of this matter,” said their joint letter motion Friday (docket 1:23-cv-08191) in U.S. District Court for Southern New York in Manhattan. The parties believe that judicial economy and the interests of the parties “would be served by a stay of the action” while they pursue resolution, the motion said. Winston’s Sept. 15 class action alleged that Peacock engages in an illegal automatic renewal scheme for its subscription streaming service with consumers who enroll in its membership programs through its website, mobile app or set-top devices (see 2309180034).
