The plaintiffs alleged the court erred in not allowing them to amend their pleadings to clarify facts regarding equitable tolling and erred in not recognizing that issues of fact existed. The trial court found, and the Pennsylvania Superior Court agreed, that without regard for an email from counsel which the plaintiffs believed was deceptive, the plaintiffs knew of its alleged harm when they entered into a consent decree with the Department of Justice.
