If you are a student who was enrolled at the University of South Florida who paid Fees for services, facilities, resources, activities, and/or events that were not provided during the Spring 2020 through Spring 2021 academic semesters due to the COVID campus closures, a class action may affect your rights.
· There is a class action lawsuit entitled Moore v. The University of South Florida Board of Trustees, Case No.: 21-CA-2445 (Division L), pending in Circuit Court in Hillsborough County, Florida.
· The Plaintiff alleges that the University of South Florida (“USF”) breached a contract when it charged and refused to refund fees she and other students paid for on-campus services that USF did not provide to any student during the Spring, Summer, and Fall 2020 academic semesters, and Spring 2021 academic semester, due to the closure of its campuses in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on these allegations, Plaintiff asserts claims on behalf of herself and other USF students against USF for breach of contract.
· The Court has not decided whether USF did anything wrong. There is no money available now, nor is there any guarantee that there will be. However, your legal rights are affected, and you have a choice to make now.
· The Court certified a Class to include: “All students enrolled at the University of South Florida who paid Fees for services, facilities, resources, activities, and/or events that were not provided to students during the Spring 2020, Summer 2020, Fall 2020, and Spring 2021 academic semesters.”
