Class Action Filed Against Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group and DTG Operations Inc

Mark Albright on behalf of class plaintiffs recently filed a class action complaint for Walter Schenker on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated against Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group and DTG Operations Inc (Case No. A577155) alleging deceptive trade practices by rental car agencies at McCarran International Airport for improperly calculating a 4 percent vehicle license fee for renting cars from the airport. Plaintiffs allege that Dollar Thrifty is required to exclude from the calculation the amount of any concession fee or charge that the car rental company is required to pay to do business at the airport and that the defendants do not exclude this amount when determining the license fee for cars rented at the Las Vegas Airport locations.
