UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA

If you purchased farm-raised salmon between April 10, 2013 and November 17, 2022,
you may be entitled to payment from a Class Action Settlement.

This website is available to:

1)      submit claims for payments from the Settlement; and

2)      object to the Settlement or to a request for payment of attorneys’ fees and reimbursement of expenses from the Settlement.

A Federal Court still has to decide whether to finally approve the Settlement. Payments to Settlement Class Members who submit timely qualifying claims will be made only if the Court approves the Settlement and after any appeals are resolved.

All persons and entities who indirectly purchased, for resale, Defendants’ farm-raised salmon or products derived from farm-raised salmon, such as salmon fillets or smoked salmon, sold or distributed by Defendants (listed below) in any of the following states, districts, or territories: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, the District of Columbia, Florida, Guam, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, West Virginia, or Wisconsin during the Settlement Class Period.

Defendants’ farm-raised salmon or products derived from farm-raised salmon, such as salmon fillets or smoked salmon, purchased during the Settlement Class Period from a person or entity other than a Defendant.
