Isagenix drops Modere US lawsuit, targets Australia
Isagenix has voluntarily withdrawn its US lawsuit against Modere.
The company states it will now commence proceedings in Australia.
In an internal message sent out to high-ranking Isagenix distributors, the company wrote;
it appears our legal measures in the United States have been heard loudly, clearly, and, most importantly, have been effective for the time being.
Now that our message has been received loud and clear—after our numerous requests, pleas, and finally legal action—we have strategically decided to voluntarily withdraw our U.S. case and focus our full legal attention in Australia.
To that end, today Isagenix will be commencing legal proceedings in Australia in our ongoing case against individuals in Australia we believe continue to raid and prey upon the businesses of their formerly fellow Isagenix Associates in violation of the contractual obligations they owe to Isagenix and, we believe with irresponsible earnings and product claims.
Isagenix doesn’t name any individuals they’ll be pursuing in Australia. Nor does the company confirm they will be targeting Australian based Modere distributors.
In response to Isagenix’s withdrawal, Modere stated;
Isagenix has chosen to drop the lawsuit of its own accord.
Neither Modere or its social marketers have agreed to any settlement with Isagenix or to any restriction on their ability to conduct business or freely compete.
Despite having filed the lawsuit more than three months ago, Isagenix did not follow with subsequent procedures necessary to prosecute the case.
In fact, it did not even serve the lawsuit upon Modere or any of its social marketers, which is the first step required to move a lawsuit forward.
Modere believes the lawsuit was an improper and unfortunate attempt by Isagenix to distract its salesforce from Isagenix’s widely publicized difficulties and declining performance.
Isagenix filed suit against Modere back in February. The lawsuit alleged raiding, with a focus on former Australian distributors Heidi and Lal MacAllan.
Gosh! I wonder if they’re hard pressed to go after Australian because the owners daughter in law (Eric Coovers wife) and her brother Ben are Australian Isagenix Millionaires and it’s cutting into their earnings.
I’m gonna guess, YES!!!
The people being pursued are Brett Davis and his wife Sammy G. It’s alleged They are the main architects of all the raiding under the direction of modere and assisted by Justin prince.
It’s also rumoured that modere is buying Isagenix leaders with 12 month income matches and sign bonuses.
They are targeting Isagenix and smearing them because their president refused to buy modere back in 2018 citing a poor field culture and sub quality white label products.
Does anyone know how this ended? I saw the two people named – Brett Davis and Samantha Gascoigne don’t seem to be listed on Modere’s bonus winners for the past few months.
They also seemed to attempt to launch as ‘The Ministry of Marketing’ doing podcasts and youtube videos, but the videos have disappeared after virtually no views.
Their Facebook group has been silent for ages. Their instagram account has only 900 followers.
There was a flurry of podcasts a while ago but now nothing for ages and their attempted website is half built.
It made me wonder whether Isagenix had won their legal action and they’d had to wind in a lot of their work (or perhaps their downlines from Isagenix got really pissed off and deserted them in droves). God knows.
Interesting that Samantha Gascoigne still has ‘seven figure earner at Isagenix’ on her LinkedIn profile. Pretty bizarre oversight.
Not sure if Modere wound up filing anything in Australia. Kind of just fizzled out after they dropped US proceedings.
I wonder if there’s been some kind of out of court settlement.
I’ve been watching some videos on YouTube where some people who were formerly in Modere in America were talking about how these things were usually settled out of court. It’ll be interesting to see how things develop.
From what I can gather, MLMs are somewhat in decline in general. Have a feeling some people are going to have a very hard landing.
