If You Are An Individual Whose Private Information Was Compromised By The Data Incident And To Whom Defendant Provided Written Notification of The Data Incident, You Are Eligible to Receive a Settlement Class Member Benefit from a Class Action Settlement
A Court has authorized this Long Form Notice (“Notice”). This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.
A Court authorized the Notice to those that are eligible to receive Settlement Class Member Benefits from a proposed class action Settlement. The Action is titled Deanna Newberry, et al. v OneBlood, Inc, Case No. CACE25010397 and is pending in the 17th Judicial Circuit in and for Broward County, Florida. The person that filed the class action lawsuit is called Plaintiffs or Class Representatives and the company they sued is OneBlood, Inc. (or Defendant). Defendant denies any wrongdoing whatsoever.
- Who is a Settlement Class Member?
- All individuals whose Private Information was compromised by the Data Incident and to whom Defendant provided written notification of the Data Incident.
- Excluded from the Settlement Class are (a) all persons who are directors and officers of Defendant; (b) governmental entities; (c) the Judge assigned to the Action, that Judge’s immediate family, and Court staff; and (d) any Settlement Class Member who timely and validly requests to opt-out from the Settlement.
- Settlement Class Members under the Settlement Agreement will be eligible to receive one of the following Cash Payments:
- Cash Payment A - Documented Losses: Settlement Class Members may submit a Claim for a Cash Payment for up to $2,500 per Settlement Cass Member upon submission of reasonable documented losses related to the Data Incident;
OR
- Cash Payment B - Alternate Cash: Settlement Class Members may elect a $60 Cash Payment.
- Cash Payment A - Documented Losses: Settlement Class Members may submit a Claim for a Cash Payment for up to $2,500 per Settlement Cass Member upon submission of reasonable documented losses related to the Data Incident;
The maximum total amount to be paid by Defendant under the Settlement is $1,000,000. In the event the total of all Cash Payments, Settlement Administration Costs, Service Awards approved by the Court, and Attorney’s Fees and Costs approved by the Court is more than $1,000,000, then Cash Payments will be reduced pro rata, or an equal percentage basis, between all Settlement Class Members. If a Settlement Class Member does not submit a Valid Claim, the Settlement Class Member will release his or her claims without receiving a Cash Payment.
Please read the Notice carefully. Your legal rights will be affected, and you have a choice to make at this time.
