Watch out for
- Claim deadline is Monday, September 14, 2026 — late submissions won't be paid.
- If you want to opt out or object to the settlement, that deadline is earlier: Tuesday, August 4, 2026.
- There's no fixed dollar amount per claim — payouts are proportional based on how many valid claims are submitted.
- The final approval hearing is September 24, 2026, so payments won't arrive until after that date at the earliest.
We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.
