FRESNO (KMJ) — District Attorneys in Shasta, Riverside, and Santa Cruz counties have filed civil law enforcement action against Kohl’s – alleging that the store is charging customers more than the prices advertised on store shelves and signs.
The stipulated final judgement was filed in Santa Cruz superior court on Friday.
The Fresno County’s District Attorney says inspections made in store revealed the price was higher at the register than it was advertised.
Without admitting wrongdoing, Kohl’s have paid almost $1 million in civil penalties as well as the costs of investigation and restitution.
The judgement also requires Kohl’s to implement additional procedures to ensure they stick to the rules.
