Michigan says Wal-Mart violated pricing laws
March 1, 2006
CHICAGO (Reuters) – Michigan’s attorney general said on
Wednesday he was taking legal action against Wal-Mart Stores
Inc. for not properly marking prices on merchandise in its
stores.
Attorney General Mike Cox said the legal action was in the
form of a “Notice of Intended Action,” which is a necessary
step before a company can be sued by the attorney general under
the Consumer Protection Act.
Wal-Mart, which has been accused of improper pricing in
states including California, has 10 days to make substantial
compliance efforts, or be sued, Cox said in a statement.
