Settlement Information
A proposed Settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit in which Plaintiffs allege that Defendant Johnson & Johnson Consumer Inc., now known as Kenvue Brands LLC (“Defendant” or “JJCI”), violated Illinois’ Biometric Information Privacy Act, 740 ILCS 14/1 et seq. (“BIPA”). By entering into the Settlement, JJCI does not concede the merits of any of the claims against it and denies that it violated the law. The Court has not decided who is right or wrong. Instead, the parties agreed to the Settlement to avoid the expense, uncertainty, and risks associated with litigation.
The proposed Settlement requires Defendant to pay $4.7 million into a Settlement Fund. Settlement Class Members who file timely and valid claims shall be entitled to a pro rata share of the Settlement Fund, net of any attorneys’ fees and costs, service payments to Class Representatives, and the costs of administering the settlement. Any remaining funds that cannot feasibly be distributed to the Settlement Class will be paid to a cy pres recipient to be approved by the Court.
