How to file this claim
✅ You do not need to file — payment is automatic.
- Check that you received an official notice in the mail. Your eligibility is based on Mighty Cake's internal records, so only people they already identified get a check.
- To get paid, do nothing. After the Final Approval Hearing on July 10, 2026 the administrator mails checks to everyone who stayed in the class.
- Want to fight the terms instead of leaving? Mail a written objection to the Clerk of the Circuit Court for Cook County, Illinois. It must be postmarked by June 25, 2026.

Watch out for
- The opt-out and objection deadlines fall on the same day: June 25, 2026. Miss the opt-out window and you're bound by whatever the court decides.
- No money moves until after the Final Approval Hearing on July 10, 2026, and only after any appeals are resolved.
- Filing an objection keeps you inside the class. You still get paid if the settlement is approved.
- The per-person payment amount isn't disclosed in the settlement documents yet.
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.
