It isn't a class action. It names Axiom and Ben Altadonn and requires them to pay $100,000 and $25,000 respectively for fraud.

Here is a blog entry about a lawsuit in PA.

http://new-york-chiropractor.blogspot.com/2006/11/new-york-chiropractor-drx-_116302912928615802.html

Below is an excerpt from the blog:

"During daylong seminars at its Tampa headquarters, Axiom executives and consultant Dr. Ben Altadonna tell chiropractors from across the country that spinal decompression is the road to riches.
In a workshop called "How to make an additional $35,000-$50,000 per month, Cash!!" Altadonna presents success lessons from Harry Houdini and testimonials from satisfied customers like one doctor, quoted in marketing materials as saying "I collected $22,000 JUST TODAY!!!! This is some wild ride Ben Altadonna, thanks for inviting me."
Dr. Eric Liners, a chiropractor in Salinas, Calif., attended one of Altadonna's seminars at Axiom's office in late February 2005 with about 40 chiropractors. In a lawsuit filed against Axiom and its finance company in March, Liners said Altadonna projected that his practice's profit could increase to $1.76-million over five years with an Axiom machine.
According to the complaint, which was filed in U.S. District Court in eastern Pennsylvania, at the end of the seminar Liners agreed to buy a machine for $125,000. However, the chiropractor claimed the device repeatedly malfunctioned and "physically molested Liners Chiropractic's patients."
"Virtually all of the patients placed in treatment showed no objective signs of favorable response," the lawsuit said, adding, "Axiom's financial projections ... proved grossly misleading."
After four months, Axiom removed the machine from Liners' practice; the lawsuit erupted after the leasing company sued the chiropractor for failing to continue making payments. Liners voluntarily dismissed his claim against Axiom shortly after it was filed and in April the remaining parties reached a confidential settlement.
In a written statement, Axiom's attorney, L. Joseph Shaheen, Jr., said the company "has asserted that Liners' claims were untrue and frivolous."
Crespo, the Tampa doctor, said marketing spinal decompression as a money-maker is a mistake."

This is Axiom's official response to the first suit where Dr. Hoang was sued for false advertising or something.
