( Lafferty I, supra , 213 Cal.App.4th at p. 565-566 , 153 Cal.Rptr.3d 240 , italics added.) Thus, the CLRA claim applied to Wells Fargo only under the Holder Rule not as a claim filed under Civil Code section 1780.

2021If the Legislature had intended to equate ‘any damage’ with being subject to the unlawful practice by itself, it presumably would have omitted the causal link between ‘any damage’ and 14 the unlawful practice, and instead would have provided something like, ‘any consumer who is subject to a method, act, or practice declared to be unlawful by Section 1770 may bring an action’ under the CLRA.” (Id. at p. 641; see also Hansen v. Newegg.com Americas, Inc. (2018) 25 Cal.App.5th 714, 724 [under CLRA, “consumer must merely ‘experience some kind of damage’ or ‘some type of increased costs’ as a result

2018FEUER, J. 8 For purpose of this appeal, Newegg has conceded that if Hansen has standing to pursue his UCL and FAL claims, he also has standing to pursue his CLRA claim, which requires only that plaintiff claim to have suffered “‘some form of damage.’” (Bower, supra, 196 Cal.App.4th at p. 1556 .) Because we conclude Hansen has adequately alleged “economic injury” for purposes of UCL standing, we likewise conclude he has standing to pursue his CLRA claim. 24
