Case Name

Mike Padberg v. DISH Network LLC,
Case No. 2:11-cv-04035-NKL,

District Court for the Western District of Missouri, Central Division

Case Summary

From October 1 through October 29, 2010, DISH did not provide FSN or FX programming to subscribers who had purchased a package from DISH that included FSN and/or FX programming for this period. Plaintiff Mike Padberg (“Class Representative”) brought a Class Action Complaint alleging that DISH’s form contract was unconscionable and that DISH breached its contract with its subscribers by failing to provide a monetary credit to subscribers equal to the value of the channels not provided. The case is pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Missouri, Case No. 2:11-cv-04035-NKL (the “Lawsuit”).

DISH denies Plaintiff’s allegations and has asserted numerous defenses to the Lawsuit, including that it was not contractually obligated to provide the FSN and FX programming, and that it provided substitute programming during the period in question. The notice is not an admission by DISH that the claims Plaintiff asserts in this case are valid, or that there has been any wrongdoing or violation of law.
