Attorney General Anthony G. Brown announced that his Consumer Protection Division has entered into a settlement with Maryland-based CapitalJazz, a local promoter that promotes music-themed events including annual Jazz “SuperCruises.”In 2021 and 2022, Capital Jazz was forced to cancel its SuperCruises because of the Pandemic.The settlement with Capital Jazz and the company’s owner, Clifford Hunte, requires Capital Jazzto return nearly $60,000 in fees the company owed to consumers had not previously refunded toconsumers. In a March 2024 settlement with the Attorney General, Royal Caribbean, theoperator of the cruise line on which the SuperCruises were scheduled to occur, returned morethan $1.3 million to consumers.“Marylanders deserve to get their money back when a business fails to deliver the goods andservices they paid for, even in unexpected and unusual circumstances like a globalpandemic. This settlement ensures that consumers whotrusted Capital Jazz with their hard-earned money for vacations that never happened will finallyreceive the full refunds they deserve.” – AG Brown
