View Date:2024-12-23 19:15:55
The window to file a claim against Bleacher Report in a class action settlement is open and the clock is ticking to get in on the payout.
The lawsuit, originally filed in January 2023, alleged that the sports news shared user information with Facebook without consent in violation of the Video Privacy Protection Act.
Bleacher Report agreed to a $4.8 million payout to customers with accounts between January 25, 2021 and May 21, 2024 without admitting to wrongdoing.
The agreement has been preliminarily approved by the Eleventh Judicial Circuit for Miami-Dade County but must still go in front of the bench for final approval on August 8.
Here's how you can join the Bleacher Report class action lawsuit.
When must a Bleacher Report Customer submit a claim?
In order to be included in the settlement an affected Bleacher Report customer must submit a claim by August 23. Claimants will receive an equal share of the payout.
Customers can submit a claim through the settlement website.
Can a customer object to the settlement?
A customer can object to or remove themselves from the settlement. Both actions must be taken by July 9.
In order to object to the settlement a class member must file a brief with the Eleventh Judicial Circuit for Miami-Dade County and send a copy to the class counsel before July 9.
If a customer removes themselves from the settlement or does not file a claim before the deadline, they will receive nothing from the payout.
