Camping World Holdings Inc., along with its subsidiaries Camping World, Inc. and FreedomRoads Holding Company, LLC, has secured a significant legal victory in a case stemming from the CNBC television series "The Profit." The Los Angeles Superior Court has confirmed a multi-million dollar award against Tumbleweed Tiny Homes and its CEO, Steve Weissmann, who is held personally liable for $4.1 million in damages. The court also awarded nearly $4.5 million in attorneys' fees and costs to Camping World, FreedomRoads, and Marcus Lemonis. This decision follows a pattern of legal successes for Camping World in similar cases related to the show. Arbitrator Hon. Candace Cooper (Ret.) found that Tumbleweed and Weissmann failed to repay loans that kept their business afloat, and dismissed their claims of misconduct against Marcus Lemonis, citing his efforts to assist the business. Further revelations indicate Weissmann accepted customer deposits for tiny homes despite knowing the company was financially insolvent. This case underscores the legal accountability for false allegations and financial mismanagement.
