Neora’s “we want to legalize pyramid schemes” lawsuit against the FTC has been dismissed.

Neora’s bid to dismiss the FTC’s pyramid scheme case against it has been rejected. The company did however manage to get the case moved to Texas.

Almost a year ago to the day, Mark and Tammy Smith’s lawsuit against Neora was ordered into arbitration. The decision was appealed but I believe ultimately Neora prevailed in getting arbitration held in Texas. On June 1st 2020, The Smiths filed a voluntary notice of dismissal.

Neora has moved to dismiss the FTC’s pyramid scheme lawsuit against it. The company argues the FTC’s lawsuit should be dismissed, owing to it filing a “duplicative” lawsuit first in Illinois. In the alternative, Neora wants the FTC’s New Jersey lawsuit moved to Illinois or Texas.

An FTC investigation has revealed less than 1% of commissions paid out by Neora were tied to retail sales. Rather than admit the company operated as a pyramid scheme, Neora is suing the FTC.

The FTC has filed a lawsuit against the MLM company Neora (formerly Nerium), and owner Jeff Olson. According to the FTC, Neora has operated as a pyramid scheme since inception as Nerium International in 2011.

Counterclaims filed by Nerium against co-founder Dennis Windsor have been settled via an agreed injunction.

Nerium Biotech has withdrawn its false advertising lawsuit against Neora.

Neora’s former product supplier, Nerium Biotechnology and Nerium Skincare (together represented as Nerium Biotech), have sued the company for allegedly using false product testimonials.

Following the denial of a preliminary injunction, Mark and Tammy Smith’s lawsuit against Neora and Jeff Olson is heading to arbitration.
