Recently, we’ve seen the Company in the headlines for waterslide injury lawsuits, a wrongful death lawsuit, and even labor violation lawsuits. Further, Disneyland was recently sued by Disneyland Magic Key holders. The $9.5 million class action lawsuit alleged that Disneyland “misled and deceived those who purchased the Dream Key pass by limiting capacity and restricting reservations to Disneyland and Disney California Adventure”, despite the fact that the pass promised “no blockout dates.” Disney agreed to settle, and the lawsuit was just finalized by a judge. Here’s what that means for YOU.

According to the Orange County Register, a U.S. District Court Judge overseeing the case just settled the lawsuit on March 4th.
