What's the $300 Million Juul Class Action Lawsuit?
The $300 Million Juul class action, which was previously settled at $255 Million, had its deadline previously extended for consumers to file claims. If you already submitted a claim in the earlier with Juul, you did not have to file another claim in order to receive your compensation from the Juul Labs / Altria Class Action Settlement.
A $300 Million class action settlement has been reached with Juul Labs, the manufacturer and marketer of Juul products such as electronic vaping cigarettes and pods. The Juul lawsuit alleged that Juul marketed its vaping products unlawfully to minors younger than 18 years of age. Additionally, the $300,000,000 Juul class action lawsuit alleged that Juul consumers paid more for Juul vaping pens and refill pods than they would have if they had correct information about Juul's level of addictiveness and safety for both adults and children.
While this Juul Labs class action lawsuit alleges that consumers of Juul vapes are entitled to cash compensation for economic damages, and that purchasers would not have paid as much as they did knowing the safety hazards and dangers of Juul, the settlement does not allege personal injury. There are other ongoing lawsuits and settlements that may be pending over other allegations of Juul's harm, hazard, or personal injuries due to using Juul's vape pens. The $300 Million Juul Labs Settlement only addresses economic damages from alleged overpayment of Juul vapes.
The Juul Settlement has been agreed to in order to avoid the painful costs and mounting risks of going to trial. Those who submit valid class action claim forms in a timely manner (by the deadline - located below) should receive cash payments, and all parties involved believe that this settlement has been agreed upon using fair terms and conditions. It is important to note that the judge and court in the case has not made a determination as to whether the class action plaintiffs or the defendant, Juul, are wrong or right.
