INTRODUCTION 3 This is a straightforward case about false advertising by an online company that 4 purports to provide "free" online legal products. Defendant Rocket Lawyer s Incorporated ("Rocket Lawyer")tells consumers that"Zoom Charges $99. Rocket 6 Lawyer is Fast, Easy, &Free. Incorporate Your Business Today," that consumers can "incorporate for free... pay no fees ($0)," and that consumers can get "free... LLCs," s "free help from local attorneys," "free legal review," and "free" trials of Rocket 9 Lawyer's "Basic Legal Plan" and "Pro Legal Plan." However, as demonstrated io below, each ofthese online advertising claims is literally false. ti Given Rocket Lawyer's use of false factual statements in its online 12 advertisements, Rocket Lawyer has engaged in false advertising and unfair 13 competition in violation ofthe Lanham Act and California Professions and Business 14 Code, and an award ofsummary judgment on these claims for LegalZoom is - u ~~Q is appropriate. ~ ~~ ~ Q ~~ i6 II. STATEMENT OF MATERIAL FACTS NOT IN DISPUTE i~ A. is LegalZoom and Rocket Lawyer are both providers of online legal products. 19 (LegalZoom's Separate Statement of Undisputed Material Facts "SS," ¶ 1, Rocket ~, ~' o 'n. ' ~ -, ~" ~~ ~~ ~ c ~L The Parties And The Products ao Lawyer's Answer to Amended Complaint and Amended Counterclaims ("Rocket 21 Lawyer's Answer and Amended Counterclaims"), ECF No. 17, 12:2-3 ("Rocket 22 Lawyer and LegalZoom compete with one another... in the legal services 23 industry....").) LegalZoom and Rocket Lawyer compete with one another in the 24 online legal products industry. (SS,¶ 2, id.) LegalZoom and Rocket Lawyer both Zs offer incorporation and formation services and other online legal products. (SS,¶ 3, 26 id. at 13:1-2.) On its website, Rocket Lawyer touts to provide affordable legal 2~ services to individuals, families and business owners. (SS,¶ 4, Declaration of Mary as Ann T. Nguyen ("Nguyen Decl."), ¶ 3, Exhibit A, a true and correct copy of Rocket i MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES 807872 Lawyer's "About Us" webpage.) 2 3 4 B. Rocket Lawyer's Online Advertisements 1. "Free" corporations and LLCs At least in 2011, 2012 and 2013, Rocket Lawyer advertised "free" 5 incorporation and "free" limited liability companies(EEGs). (SS,¶ 5, Nguyen Decl., 6 ¶ 4, Exhibit B,true and correct copies of screen grabs of Rocket Lawyer's advertisements.) For example, Rocket Lawyer has advertised "Zoom Charges $99. s Rocket Lawyer is Fast, Easy, &Free. Incorporate Your Business Today," 9 "Incorporate for Free... Pay No Fees $0,""Incorporate Your Business at Rocket io Lawyer Free,""Form Your LLC Free at Rocket Lawyer" and "Free... LLCs." (SS,¶ ii 6, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 4, Exhibit B,true and correct copies ofscreen grabs of Rocket ~, o E i2 Lawyer's advertisements.) However, Rocket Lawyer's customers cannot incorporate A( L Qi" ~is~ ~~ ~~ ~ v s =' u H ~ ~~ ~~ 13 or form an LLC for "free" through Rocket Lawyer's services. Indeed, customers i4 seeking to incorporate or form an LLC through Rocket Lawyer's services are is nonetheless required to pay the state fees associated with incorporation and formation. i6 (SS,¶ 7, Nguyen Decl., ¶¶ 2, 5, Exhibit C,true and correct copies of screen grabs of i~ state filing options through Rocket Lawyer's services on Rocket Lawyer's website.) ig Even more, customers who access the Rocket Lawyer link to the "Incorporate for i9 Free... Pay No Fees $0,""Incorporate Your Business at Rocket Lawyer Free,""Form Zo Your LLC Free at Rocket Lawyer" or "Free... LLCs" do not discover that they must ai actually pay the state filing fees until after they have accessed the Rocket Lawyer 22 website, completed a "company setup" and filled out information relating to the 23 "company details." (SS,¶ 8, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 6, Exhibit D,true and correct copies of 24 screen grabs of Rocket Lawyer's "interview" for "company set up" and "company Zs details" prior to "state filing option.") Rocket Lawyer subsequently changed the 26 language ofthese advertisements after LegalZoom filed its original Complaint.l (SS, 27 28 ~ Nonetheless, liability for false advertising under the Lanham Act may not be avoided by removing false statements from later advertising. Skydrive Arizona, Inc. v. Quattrocchi, 2009 WL 6597892, MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES ao7s72 i ¶ 9, Rocket Lawyer's Answer and Amended Counterclaims, ECF No. 17, 2:26-3:1 a ("Rocket Lawyer admits that it has produced new advertisements regarding its 3 business and a variety of services it offers since the service ofthe original 4 complaint....").) s 6 2. "Free help from local attorneys" and "Free legal review" At least in 2012, Rocket Lawyer advertised "Free help from local attorneys" and "Free legal review." (SS,¶ 10, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 7, Exhibit E,true and correct s copies of screen grabs of Rocket Lawyer's advertisements.) However, Rocket 9 Lawyer's customers could not access "help from local attorneys" or "legal review" io for free. Customers could access the "free help from local attorneys" and the "free ii legal review" only ifthey were "Eligible Members" who had either(a)purchased J ~~ o 'a ~~ ~~ ~ ~~ L i2 three consecutive months of Rocket Lawyer's monthly Legal Plan, or(b)purchased a "i3 Rocket Lawyer annual Legal Plan. (SS,¶ 11, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 8, Exhibit F, a true is and correct copy Rocket Lawyer's On Call Terms of Services, dated July 2012, as = u ~~ -~ is printed on November 27, 2012). This paid membership requirement for access to the ar ~ 16 purported "free help from local attorneys" and "free legal review" was not disclosed ~ Q c~ z 1~ in close proximity to the advertisements on Rocket Lawyer's website. (SS,¶ 12, is Nguyen Decl., ¶ 9,see http://www.rocketlawver.com/on-call-terms-of -service.rl.) 19 Indeed, this requirement was only disclosed in Rocket Lawyer's "On Call Terms of Zo Service," which was accessible to customers on a separate link found at 21 http://www.rocketlawyer.com/on-call-terms-of -service.rL (SS,¶ 13, Nguyen Decl., ¶ a2 9,see http://www.rocketlawver.com/on-call-terms-of -service.rl.) Rocket Lawyer 23 subsequently changed the language of its "On Call Terms of Service," to provide that 24 "Customers who enter into a one week (seven (7)calendar days)free trial are eligible 25 26 25(D. Ariz. Feb. 2, 2009). In Skydrive Arizona v. Quattrocchi, the defendants argued that they had removed the claimed objectionable language from their websites, but the court nevertheless held that 27 "those statements are indeed relevant to establish false advertising," and reasoned that the court had come across no authority providing that removal offalse statements from later advertising could 28 shield a party from liability. Id. 3 MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES 807872 i to receive one(1)free legal matter consultation..." after LegalZoom filed its original 2 Complaint. (SS,¶ 14, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 10, Exhibit G,a true and correct copy of 3 Rocket Lawyer's On Call Terms of Service, dated November 2012, as printed on 4 November 27, 2012.) This access during a "free trial" was not available before s LegalZoom's filing ofthe original Complaint. (SS,¶ 15, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 10, 6 Exhibits F and G.) In any event, even with Rocket Lawyer's recent change, access to the advertised "free help from local attorneys" and the "free legal review" was still s conditioned upon customers actively enrolling in Rocket Lawyer's trial membership 9 and negative option program and providing Rocket Lawyer with their credit card io information. (SS,¶ 16, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 11, Exhibit G.) As provided in Federal ii -' GIs ~~ ~~ ~'~ U ~,,~ -~ ~4 Q t~is Trade Commission v. Willms, 2011 WL 4103542, *4(W.D. Wash. Sept. 13, 2011), a iz "free" offer subject to enrollment in a negative option program is not "free" and i3 violates the Federal Trade Commission Act. is is i6 3. "Free trial" At least in 2012 and 2013, Rocket Lawyer advertised on its website "free" trials of its "Basic Legal Plan" and "Pro Legal Plan." (SS,¶ 17, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 12, 1~ Exhibit H,a true and correct copy of Rocket Lawyer advertisement("Try it Free").) is However, Rocket Lawyer's customers cannot "try" Rocket Lawyer's "Basic Legal 19 Plan" or "Pro Legal Plan" for "free." Customers who sign up for aone-week free Zo trial membership under the "Basic Legal Plan" or "Pro Legal Plan" must first provide ai Rocket Lawyer with their credit card information and enroll in Rocket Lawyer's as "negative option" program — i.e., a program in which customers are automatically 23 enrolled and billed and must contact Rocket Lawyer to opt out of. (SS,¶ 18, Nguyen 24 Decl., ¶ 13, Exhibit I, a true and correct copy of Rocket Lawyer's "free" trial 25 enrollment page after the outset ofthe offer.) As stated above, a "free" offer subject 26 to enrollment in a negative option program is not "free." See FTC v. Willms, 2011 2~ WL 4103542, *4. A disclosure of Rocket Lawyer's negative option is found in as standard font only upon the customer being directed to enroll in the "free trial." (SS, 4 MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES so~a~2 i ~ ¶ 19, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 13, see Exhibit I.) However, no further acknowledgement a ~ regarding the negative option is provided. (SS,¶ 20, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 13,see Exhibit 3 ~ I•) Le~alZoom's Prior Efforts To Resolve Matters Outside Of Court 4 C. s In an attempt to resolve this matter amicably outside the courts, on October 13, 6 2011, LegalZoom's Chairman, Brian Liu, contacted Rocket Lawyer's CEO,Dan Nye, stating that there were "important issues that [LegalZoom's] legal department has s brought up regarding [Rocket Lawyer's] advertising." (SS,¶ 21, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 14, 9 Exhibit J, a true and correct copy ofthe email exchange between Brian Liu and Dan io Nye, dated October 13, 2011.) Mr. Nye responded by stating that Mr. Liu should a ii discuss this issue with Charley Moore, Rocket Lawyer's founder and Chairman, and J J ~i 4 oi'n. ~' '~ ro s --•en ~', eat w~ _~ ,~ IZ 13 copied Mr. Moore on the email exchange. (SS,¶ 22, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 14, Exhibit J.) On October 14, 2011, Mr. Liu had a telephone conversation with Mr. Moore, is stating that LegalZoom took issue with Rocket Lawyer's ads, which promised "Set up is a Free LLC... Totally Free," and "100% Free," since state filing fees must always be i6 paid when setting up an LLC through Rocket Lawyer. (SS,¶ 23, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 15, ~' a l7 z 1~ Exhibit K,a true and correct copy ofthe email from Brian Liu to Charley Moore, is dated October 14, 2011.) Mr. Liu also implored Mr. Moore to read and follow the 19 Federal Trade Commission's guidelines regarding the use of the word "free" in Zo advertising, which requires, among other things, that "all terms, conditions and ai obligations upon which receipt and retention ofthe "Free" item are contingent should as be set forth clearly and conspicuously at the outset ofthe offer so as to leave no 23 reasonable probability that the terms ofthe offer might be misunderstood." (SS,¶ 24, 24 Nguyen Decl., ¶ 15, Exhibit K(emphasis added.) Mr. Liu requested that Rocket Zs Lawyer immediately take down these and other misleading advertisements. (SS,¶ 25, 26 2~ Nguyen Decl., ¶ 15, Exhibit K.) One month later, the misleading Rocket Lawyer advertising still had not been as ~ changed or removed. (SS,¶ 26, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 16, Exhibit L.) Beginning s MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES so7s72 i November 15, 2011, in a series of emails, Mr. Liu repeatedly requested that Rocket 2 ~ Lawyer discontinue its false advertising and unfair competition practices to no avail. 3 (SS,¶ 27, Nguyen Decl., ¶ 16, Exhibit L.) ~ 4 Thus, LegalZoom respectfully requests that this Court hold that Rocket 5 ~ Lawyer's advertisements constitute false advertising under the Lanham Act and false 6 ~ adverting and unfair competition under California law as a matter of law. ~ III. ARGUMENT s A. 9 Summary judgment shall be granted "if the movant shows that there is no Legal Standard For Summary Judgment io genuine dispute as to any material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a ii matter of law." Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(a); see also Green v. Sun Life Assur. Co., 383 F. J ~~~ ~~ ~~ ~ ~~ _~ ,~ a ~ ~ a ~~ i2 Supp. 2d 1224, 1226(C.D. Cal. 2005). A "genuine issue" exits if"a reasonable jury i3 could return a verdict for the nonmoving party" and a fact is material if it "might is affect the outcome ofthe suit under the governing law." Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, is Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 248 (1986). The Court shall determine, if practicable, what i6 material facts exist without substantial controversy. Fleener v. Trinity Broadcasting i~ Network, 203 F. Sup. 2d 1142, 1147(C.D. Cal. 2001). is The initial burden is on the moving party to establish the absence of any 19 genuine issues of material fact and, thereby, establishing entitlement to judgment as a ao matter of law. Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c); see also Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, ai 323(1986); Anderson,477 U.S. at 250. After the moving party has sustained its 22 initial burden, the nonmoving party must come forth with enough evidence to 23 demonstrate the existence of a "genuine issue" of material fact for trial. Anderson, 24 477 U.S. at 256; Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(e). The nonmoving party's burden is such that it as must do more than simply show there is some metaphysical doubt as to the material 26 facts. Matsushita Elec. Industrial Co. v. Zenith Radio Corp., 475 U.S. 574(1986); a~ see also Triton Energy Corp. v. Square D. Co.,68 F.3d 1216, 1221 (9th Cir. 1995) as (providing that "[t]he mere existence of a scintilla of evidence in support ofthe 6 MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES so7sn ~ nonmoving party's position is not sufficient" to prevent summary judgment). a 3 4 B. Rocket Lawyer's Advertisements Constitute False Advertising Under The Lanham Act "The purpose ofthe [Lanham] Act is to insure truthfulness in advertising and to s eliminate misrepresentations with reference to the inherent quality or characteristics 6 of another's product." Coca-Cola Co. v. Tropicana Products, Inc., 690 F.2d 312, 318 (2d Cir. 1982). The Lanham Act is designed and should be enforced to protect the s public from deception by deterring deceivers. Monsanto Chemical Co. v. Perfect Fit 9 Products Mfg. Co., 349 F.2d 389, 395-96(2d Cir. 1965), cert. denied, 383 U.S. 942 io (1966). The Ninth Circuit too has stressed that the trial court's primary function ii should center on making violations ofthe Lanham Act unprofitable. Maier Brewing is Co. v.

LegalZoom can show by undisputed facts that Rocket Lawyer has engaged in 3 4 ~ each element of a Lanham Act false advertising claim, and therefore is entitled to s ~ summary judgment on this claim, as a matter of law. 1. 6 Rocket Lawyer's Advertisements are False Commercial Advertisements s a. Rocket Lawyers advertisements are literally false. Whether a statement is literally false is a determination to be made as a matter 9 io ~ of law. Allsup, Inc. v.

Therefore this determination is appropriate for summary judgment. 12 To demonstrate falsity within the meaning of the Lanham Act, a plaintiff may i3 show that the statement was literally false, either on its face or by necessary is implication, or that the statement was literally true, but likely to mislead or confuse is consumers. Southland Sod Farms v. Stover Seed Co., 108 F.3d at 1139. The test for i6 literal falsity is simple: "if a defendant's claim is untrue, it must be deemed literally i~ false." Castrollnc. v. Pennzoil Co.,987 F.2d 939,944(3d Cir. 1993); see also 16 is C.F.R. § 251.1 (2009)("FTC Guide Concerning The Use ofthe Word `Free' And i9 Similar Representations")(false advertising occurs where the "free" offer is not Zo accompanied by a sufficient disclaimer making clear that the offer is not actually 21 22 free). As stated above, Rocket Lawyer's advertisements — "Zoom Charges $99. 23 Rocket Lawyer is Fast, Easy, &Free. Incorporate Your Business Today," 24 "incorporate for free... pay no fees ($0),""form your LLC free at Rocket Lawyer," Zs "free help from local attorneys," "free legal review," and "free" trials of Rocket 26 Lawyer's "Basic Legal Plan" and "Pro Legal Plan" —are literally false.

See Spiegel, Inc. v. Fed. Trade Comm'n,494 F.2d 59(7th Cir. 1974)("free .. trial" offers conditioned on customer's meeting retailer's credit criteria were not truly free). Accordingly, Rocket Lawyer's advertisements are literally false as a matter of law. a J ~~ b. o Rocket Lawyers advertisements are commercial advertisements. ~ ~~ ~ ~ c ~ i.~ s ~ u Commercial advertisements, for purposes of the Lanham Act are:(i) commercial speech;(ii) by a defendant who is in commercial competition with ~Q L plaintiff;(iii) for the purpose of influencing consumers to buy defendant's goods or a~ N ~ a services; and (iv) must be disseminated sufficiently to the relevant purchasing public to constitute "advertising" or "promotion" within that industry. Coastal Abstract Sere. Inc. v. FirstAm. Title Ins. Co., 173 F.3d 725, 735 (9th Cir. 1999), citing 15 U.S.C. § 1125(a)(1)(B). (i) Za Commercial speech. The Supreme Court has recognized that "expression related solely to the 23 economic interests ofthe speaker and its audience" will be considered commercial 24 speech. Oxycal Lab. v. Jeffers, 909 F. Supp. 719, 724(S.D. Cal. 1995)(citing 25 Cincinnati v. Discovery Network, 507 U.S. 410,422(1993)). Rocket Lawyer's 26 advertisements to customers and potential customers regarding the cost of Rocket z~ Lawyer's products are purely economic in nature and therefore constitute commercial as speech. 9 MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES 807872 i 2 (ii) Parties in commercial competition. Commercial competitors, for purposes ofthe Lanham Act, are "persons 3 endeavoring to do the same thing and each offering to perform the act, furnish the 4 merchandise, or render the service better or cheaper than his rival." Summit Tech. v. 5 High-line Med. Instruments. Co., 933 F. Supp. 918,939(C.D. Cal. 1996). Since both 6 LegalZoom and Rocket Lawyer are providers of online legal products, they are in commercial competition with each other. s 9 (iii) Purpose of influencing customers. To be considered a statement made "for the purpose of influencing consumers io to buy the defendant's goods and services," the statement must propose a commercial ii transaction. If it does not, it is not advertising and cannot be the subject of a Lanham J ~, 0 12 Act "false advertising" claim. See, e.g., Rice v. Fox Broadcasting Co., 330 F.3d 1170, 13 1180-81 (9th Cir. 2003). Because Rocket Lawyer directs its advertisements to ~S L O ~ ~~ ~~ ~ ~L =~ i4 individuals, families and business owners looking for affordable legal services and Q is products, the purpose of its false advertisements concerning the costs of Rocket a~ 16 ~~ ~~ Lawyer's products is to influence customers to purchase Rocket Lawyer's products. i~ is i9 (iv) Dissemination sufficiently to the relevant purchasing public. Advertisements on the Internet have been found to be disseminated sufficiently Zo to the relevant purchasing public for purposes ofthe Lanham Act. See Healthport, 21 563 F. Supp. 2d at 1179; see also Certain Teed Corp. v. Seattle RoofBrokers, 2010 Za WL 2640083, *5(W.D. Wash.

Zs 29, 2009)(marketing materials, including those on the Internet, meet the commercial 26 advertising requirement because they are "disseminated sufficiently to the relevant a~ purchasing public.") Since Rocket Lawyer's advertisements were on the Internet, the 2g advertisements are disseminated sufficiently to the relevant purchasing public. 10 MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES so7s72 i 2. Rocket Lawyer's Advertisements Are Presumed to Have 2 Deceived and Have the Tendency to Deceive a Substantial 3 Segment of its Audience 4 Rocket Lawyer's advertisements are likely to deceive their intended audience, s the users of online legal help, because they are likely to cause confusion or mistake as 6 to the actual cost ofthe purportedly "free" Rocket Lawyer services. In any event, if an advertisement is literally false, or if a defendant intentionally misleads customers, s a presumption arises that customers were in fact deceived and the burden shifts to the 9 defendant to prove otherwise.

Cal. 2002)("When a plaintiff shows that the defendant's false advertising ai was intentional, the plaintiff is entitled to a presumption that customers were as deceived."). Since Rocket Lawyer's advertisements are literally false and Rocket 23 Lawyer was made aware of the literal falsity of its advertisements, but nonetheless 24 intentionally continued to use such false advertisements to confuse and deceive Zs customers into believing that its products and services were somehow "free," it can be 26 presumed that customers were in fact confused and deceived. Given such legal 2~ presumption in LegalZoom's favor, LegalZoom is entitled to summary judgment on Zs this element. ii MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES 807872 i 3. a 3 4 Rocket Lawyer's Advertisements are Materially Deceptive in that it They Are Likely to Influence Purchasing Decisions Whether for online legal products or other consumer products, use ofthe word "free" is a highly effective tactic used by retailers to lure customers to their stores and s websites. In re Samuel Stores, 27 F.T.C. 882(1938). Rocket Lawyer's use ofthe 6 term "free" in its advertising is no different. Rocket Lawyer's advertisements are likely to cause confusion or mistake as to the true costs of Rocket Lawyer products s and services. Given that Rocket Lawyer's products and services are directed towards 9 economical individuals and small to medium sized businesses, cost is a key factor in io such customers' purchasing decisions. In any event, where defendant's advertising ii claims are literally false, such false statements are presumed to be material. See POM ~. J ~~ i2 Wonderful LLC v.

Rocket Lawyer Caused its False Advertisements to Enter Interstate Commerce An advertisement enters into interstate commerce for purposes ofthe Lanham is Act where the advertisement is widely disseminated to the purchasing public. See 19 Gordon ~ Breach Science Publishers, Ltd. v. American Institute ofPhysics, 859 F. ao Supp. 1521, 1535-36(S.D.N.Y. 1994)("[w]hile the advertising need not be made in a 21 `classic advertising campaign,' but may consist instead of more informal types of 22 `promotion,' the representations... must be disseminated sufficiently to the relevant 23 24 ing public....")(emphasis added). "As both a means to engage in commerce and the method by which Zs transactions occur, `the Internet is an instrumentality and channel of interstate 26 commerce." United States Sutcliffe, 505 F.3d 944, 953 (9th Cir. 2007)(quoting 2~ United States v. Trotter, 478 F.3d 918,921 (8th Cir. 2007)); see also Healthport 2s Corp. v. Tanita Corp. ofAmerica, 563 F. Supp. 2d at 1179, 1180-81 (providing that 12 MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES so~sn statements on the Internet constitute advertisements in interstate commerce for purposes ofthe Lanham Act). Therefore, to prove that a defendant promoted false statements in interstate commerce,the plaintiff can show that a defendant made false 4 statements on the Internet. Del Webb Cmtys., Inc. v. Partington, 2009 WL 3053709, s *11, *16(D. Nev. Sept. 18, 2009). 6 By placing its false advertisements on the Internet(via search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Bing as well as on its own and other websites), Rocket Lawyer s clearly caused its false advertisements to enter interstate commerce. 9 io ii ~,~ o 5. Rocket Lawyer's False Advertising Caused Actual Iniury to Le~alZoom It is well established that "a competitor need not prove injury when suing to is enjoin conduct that violates section 43(a)" ofthe Lanham Act.

Indeed,"an inability to show actual 15 damages does not alone preclude recovery" and the district court may "award the 16 plaintiff any just monetary award so long as it constitutes `compensation' for the i~ plaintiffls losses or the defendant's unjust enrichment and is not simply a `penalty for is the defendant's conduct."' Southland Sod Farms v. Stover Seed Co., 108 F.3d at 19 ao 1146 (citations omitted). Given that LegalZoom and Rocket Lawyer are direct competitors for online 2i legal products and Rocket Lawyer's advertisements are literally false, injury to 22 23 LegalZoom is presumed and LegalZoom is injured by Rocket Lawyer's false ,advertising as a matter of law.3 24 3 In any event, direct diversion of sales from a plaintiff to a defendant constitutes actual injury under the Lanham Act. Southland Sod, 108 F.3d at 1139. LegalZoom has lost business and continues to lose business caused by Rocket Lawyer's false and misleading advertisements and unfair 26 competition practices as a result of at least one customer being diverted to the Rocket Lawyer website and/or refusing to do business with LegalZoom due to the fact that the Rocket Lawyer 27 advertisements falsely state that Rocket Lawyer offers "free" incorporation," "free" LLCs,"free help from local attorneys," "free legal review," and "free" trials of Rocket Lawyer's "Basic Legal 28 Plan" and "Pro Legal Plan," in an amount to be determined at trial. 25 13 MEMORANDUM OF POINTS AND AUTHORITIES 807872 C.

Rocket Lawyer was made fully aware that its advertisements were false and misleading and so acted in violation of Section 17500 ofthe California Business &Professions Code. Rocket Lawyer's advertising further violates Section 17509 and Section 17600 et seq.4 in that the advertisements require, io as a condition ofthe "free" services, the payment of state fees, the purchase of paid li membership and/or the enrollment in a trial membership plan subject to a negative ~,~ ~, ~ 12 option without adequate disclosure to customers.

Cal.

The statute spells out the requirements of"clear and conspicuous" and provides that to qualify as "clear and conspicuous, a disclosure must be in larger type than the surrounding text, or in contrasting type, font or color to the surrounding text of the same size, or set offfrom the surrounding text of the same size by symbols or other marks, in a manner that clearly calls attention to the language." In addition, the statute requires that the customer be provided with an acknowledgement that includes the automatic renewal or continuous service offer terms, cancellation policy and information regarding how to cancel in a manner that is capable of being retained by the customer. As discussed above, Rocket Lawyer's negative option disclosure appears in standard font only upon the customer being directed to enroll in the "free trial."

(Emphasis added. Consistent with i2 the clear language ofthe "Free" Guide, the FTC has repeatedly taken enforcement 23 actions against false "free" claims with automatic renewals that are not adequately 24 disclosed at the outset of an advertisement, but are hidden in footnotes and fine print. 25 26 5 See Waul v.
