I recently read a few news articles talking about a class action lawsuit against the DNC for cheating Bernie Sanders out of the primaries.

One other article on Snopes had some info about all this too, but I don't feel like they provided any definitive answers that I was looking for. Here is the tweet that WikiLeaks sent out with a summary of the claims:
