How about the one in which disappointed movie fans sued Universal Studios for falsely advertising the movie Yesterday as featuring the actress Ana de Armas who appeared in the trailer but was nowhere to be found in the film?

It's an unfortunate truth that companies today must always be aware of any potential legal repercussions if they don't make certain their labels are doing exactly what they promise.

Believe it or not, many lawsuits have stemmed from weddings, from a groom suing his partner for leaving him at the altar to a bride demanding due compensation for a wedding gown mishap.

Many people will agree that dogs are essential to have in one’s home. Having a pet dog (or dogs) improves your mood dramatically, lowers your stress levels, makes you live an active lifestyle, and gives you something adorable to look at or play with 24/7.
