A Texas man is suing Cinemark alleging that the movie theater chain was “deceptive' in selling him a beverage that didn’t hold as much liquid as it was supposed to in the cup.

Cinemark is facing a lawsuit from a man alleging that the movie theater chain duped patrons regarding the size of its drinks. Shane Waldrop said in a lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas that he purchased a 20-ounce and 24-ounce draft beer served to him in drink containers with ounce markings, but realized the cups could only hold a maximum of 22 ounces of liquid, FOX Business reported. FOX Television Stations reached out to Cinemark for comment.

Ellzey, told FOX Business that Cinemark is misleading customers into handing over money "while not providing the full value of the item" they are paying for. FOX Business noted that the lawsuit alleges that Cinemark’s packaging and advertising of the 24-ounce drinks, sold at locations nationwide, "violate various state laws against misbranding, which mirror federal law.
