Additionally, Bodea claims that JPMorgan Securities misrepresented the fees associated with the program, often omitting them entirely from customer disclosures.

The lawsuit seeks damages, attorney fees, and a jury trial. JPMorgan Chase declined to comment on Monday, and counsel for Bodea did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
