On February 26, 2026, the Almeida Law Group filed a class action against Domino’s Pizza and related entities over the charging of unlawful junk fees at certain store locations in California. The complaint alleges that Domino’s added on last minute, mandatory junk fees to certain pizza sales and falsely lists those fees as a “tax” on receipts.
“Domino’s business practices give customers the false impression that the junk fees are a tax, when in reality, they are Domino’s Pizza attempting to pass its operating costs along to the public,” said California Managing Partner Wesley M. Griffith of the Almeida Law Group. “In our view, that’s a clear-cut violation of California’s consumer protection statutes, including the Honest Pricing Act.”
The case is Murphy v. Domino’s Pizza Franchising LLC, et al., No. 3:26-cv-01712, filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The lawsuit seeks to recover unlawfully collected fees and hold Domino’s and its affiliated entities responsible for the allegedly unlawful practices. The case is being handled by California Managing Partner Wesley M. Griffith, Of Counsel David McGee, Associate Loc G. Ho, and Paralegal Garrett Syke.
The Almeida Law Group represents consumers in complex litigation involving unlawful fee practices, deceptive pricing schemes, and violations of state consumer protection laws.
