Disposable Contacts Antitrust Litigation

On February 29, 2024, the Court overruled all objections to the Second Distribution Order and granted Class Counsel's Motion to reissue payments to Lapsed Claimants who show good cause. The Order is posted here. Class Members meeting specific criteria for inclusion in supplemental distribution activity will be contacted directly by the Settlement Administrator. There will be no notification to individuals who are not eligible to participate in the supplemental distribution. Class Members who received and did not negotiate their checks prior to their stale dates and request a re-issuance prior to November 15, 2023 and do not show good cause, have forfeited their rights to receive settlement funds, as per the Court's Order. Award payments will be made to appropriate Class Members on or before April 14, 2024.
