Completion Of Discovery: Two-and-a-Half-Years After Initial Filing of the Perrigo Class Action Lawsuit

Settlement Negotiation and Mediation

  • Settlement Negotiations Heat Up: By now two-and-a-half to three years have passed since the initial filing of the Perrigo Class Action Lawsuit. However, it is at this point that nearly all securities class actions result in a settlement, but that process takes time also. Once the parties have reached an agreement, it will have to be preliminarily approved by the court with notice to shareholders with the right to object, obtain final approval of the settlement, and then the claims process begins.
  • Third Party Administrator: Usually, a third-party administrator is hired to administer the common fund. If the parties have complied with all the steps for approval, the judge will approve the distribution of the settlement fund by the claim’s administrator. You will receive a court-appointed notice and have to send in a claim form confirming your purchases and sales.
