Publishers Jointly Offer Daily Coverage of Major UPS Store Trial

Blue MauMau and Courtroom View Network announce that they will work jointly to attend and report on the highly-charged Mail Boxes Etc.-The UPS Store class action lawsuit that has been years in the making.

    LEXINGTON, KY, August 05, 2009 /Publications PR News/ -- Blue MauMau and Courtroom View Network announce that they will work jointly to attend and report on the highly-charged Mail Boxes Etc.-The UPS Store class action lawsuit that has been years in the making.s. It starts in Los Angeles on Monday morning, August 3.

Franchise owner-operators claim that Mail Boxes Etc. provided them with false information and coerced them to jump ship from the Mail Boxes Etc. brand to join a largely untested business model that focused on parcel shipments under the well-known brand name of UPS.

UPS denies those claims and has fought the charges for years in court.

But franchisees were given a helping hand last month. On June 19 California Superior Court Judge William Highberger stunned the franchising firm by certifying a class action law suit that enables some 3,500 Mail Boxes Etc. franchisees to participate in the legal action.

Courtroom View Network is known for providing live coverage and video of high-stakes civil litigation to largely legal and business professionals. CVN will have a reporter attending all days of the trial and reporting once during lunch breaks and again after the day is through.

Readers will need to register and subscribe. The cost for subscribing to the detailed reporting on the CVN blog is $9 per day or $25 for the whole trial. The trial begins Monday morning.

This is one of the first times that a franchise news trade journal has arranged for hundreds and possibly thousands of franchisees and professionals to monitor a hearing. It is extremely unusual, not just for the franchise world, but also for any small business media.

Read the full details on Blue MauMau on how to receive the MBE / The UPS Store daily trial report that begins Monday.
