As we previously reported, the California AG’s office recently provided clarification through FAQs on the California “hidden fee” law that amended the Consumer Legal Remedies Act, SB 478. Those FAQs articulated the position that restaurants must include all mandatory fees, including service charges and mandatory gratuity, as part of the displayed price for a product, while distinguishing delivery fees on the grounds that those fees are for a separate service. Simone Roach presents the key points from Donnelly McDowell and Beth Chun's article in our latest podcast episode: https://lnkd.in/eGnCCGuD #ConsumerProtection #HiddenFees #CaliforniaLaw #LegalUpdate #KelleyDrye

On July 29, 2024, the FTC’s revised Health Breach Notification Rule (HBNR) takes effect. The Rule requires vendors of personal health records (PHRs) and related entities not covered by HIPAA to notify individuals, the FTC, and in some cases, the media in the event of a breach of unsecured personal health data. Businesses operating a wide array of services, including health, diet, and fitness apps, should take care to review the revised HBNR and assess its applicability to their practices.

This applies regardless of whether the products are provided through employer partnerships or marketed directly to borrowers.

Typically, administrative law doesn't generate much excitement, except for those working in labor and employment law or other highly regulated fields. That has now changed given the Court’s decision in 𝘓𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘳 𝘉𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘌𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘴, 𝘐𝘯𝘤. 𝘷. 𝘙𝘢𝘪𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘰, 603 U.S. __ (2024) (𝘓𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘳 𝘉𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵). This decision will undoubtedly have a meaningful impact on the future of labor and employment law and how employers should approach problem-solving and litigation. It’s critical that employers pay attention, as this shift demands a new level of vigilance, with federal agencies needing to reassess their approaches to regulation and enforcement.
