Murphy. v. The Auto Club Group,
E.D. Mich. Case No. 5:24-cv-11168-JEL-CI
A Settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit in alleging the Auto Club Group provided class members with an untimely COBRA Notice that did not adequately inform class members how to exercise their right to elect COBRA coverage. Auto Club denies these allegations.
At this point in the case, the presiding judge has not made any determination about who is right or wrong. Rather, instead of proceeding with potentially years of litigation with uncertain outcomes, the Parties have agreed to resolve the lawsuit through a Court-supervised settlement to avoid further cost and uncertainty.
Membership in the Settlement Class will be determined based upon Defendant’s records reflecting who was sent the specific COBRA Notice at issue during the Class Period. It is estimated that the Settlement Class is comprised of 184 potential members.
