Case No. 10-04018-CV-C-NKL
PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION FOR APPROVAL OF CLASS NOTICE AND TO
DIRECT DEFENDANT TO PROVIDE CLASS CONTACT INFORMATION
Come now, Plaintiffs, by and through counsel, and hereby move this Court for an Order
approving the proposed Notice attached hereto as Exhibit 1 to be sent to the class and approving
the proposed distribution plan for class notice more fully set forth in Plaintiffs’ Suggestions in
Support of this Motion. In further support of this Motion, Plaintiffs state as follows:
1.
The Court granted Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification on December 14,
2010. See, Document No. 61.
2.
Plaintiffs propose a detailed Notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1 be
provided to the class advising the members of their rights and options for being excluded from
the class. See, Proposed Class Notice attached hereto as Exhibit 1. The proposed Notice
includes all of the requirements contained in Fed. R. Civ. P. 23(c)(2).
1
3.
As more fully set forth in the Suggestions in Support of this Motion (which are
incorporated herein by this reference), Plaintiffs propose to appoint Epiq Legal Noticing, a
division of Epiq Systems to disseminate the Class Notice by sending the detailed notice to all
class members by e-mail, as that is the manner in which Defendant delivered the documents at
issue to the class. In addition, any e-mails which are returned as undeliverable will result in the
detailed notice being mailed via U.S. Mail to the mailing address defendant provides for any
such class member. Finally, plaintiffs request the Court allow class counsel to maintain a web
site whereby class members can obtain the primary pleadings and Orders issued by this Court, as
well as provide some answers to frequently asked questions, so that the class can quickly and
efficiently obtain information about the issues in this case.
4.
Finally, Plaintiffs request that the Court direct Defendant to provide them with
contact information, including e-mail addresses, for the class members in a useable format.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs respectfully request this Court grant Plaintiffs’ Motion for
Approval of Class Notice and to Direct Defendant to Provide Class Contact Information, as more
fully set forth in the Suggestions in Support of this Motion filed herewith, in addition to such
other and further relief as this Court deems just and proper.
