Your rights may be affected by the Settlement of this Lawsuit, and you have a choice to make now about how to act:
| Your Legal Rights and Options in This Lawsuit: | |
|---|---|
| SUBMIT A CLAIM FORM | This is the only way to receive a cash payment provided under the Settlement. Claims must be received by January 7, 2024. |
| EXCLUDE YOURSELF | Write to the Settlement Administrator to opt out of the Settlement. If you opt out of the settlement, you will not be eligible to receive the Settlement Benefits, but you will keep your right to be part of any other lawsuit or to sue on your own regarding any claims that are part of the settlement. Requests for Exclusion must be received by September 7, 2023. |
| OBJECT | You may write to the Court about why you do not like the Settlement. Objections must be filed with the Court and copies received by September 7, 2023. |
| APPEAR IN THE LAWSUIT OR ATTEND A HEARING | You may ask to speak in Court about the fairness of the Settlement. You may appear in Court yourself or appear through an attorney at your own expense if you so desire. Written notice of your intent to appear in the Lawsuit must be filed with the Court and served on the Parties by September 28, 2023. The Court’s Fairness Hearing is currently scheduled for April 8, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. EST |
| DO NOTHING | If you do nothing, you will receive no reimbursement. You also give up your right to be part of any other lawsuit against the Defendant about the same legal claims in this lawsuit. |
- These rights and options -- and the deadlines to exercise them -- are explained in the notice.
- The Court in charge of this case still must decide whether to approve the Settlement before any benefits can be distributed. The Settlement Benefits will be made available if the Court approves the settlement and after any appeals are resolved. Please be patient.
