Broderick Law, PC Announces a Proposed Class Action Settlement for All Persons Who Received a Call(s) Advertising Vivint Goods or Services
BOSTON, June 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
If You Received Call(s) Advertising Vivint Goods or Services, You May Benefit From a Proposed Class Action Settlement
A Proposed Settlement has been reached in a class action involving Vivint, Inc. ("Vivint"). The case, Benzion v. Vivint, Inc., Case No. 12-cv-61826-WJZ, is currently pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida.
What is the lawsuit about?
The lawsuit alleges that certain Telemarketers made numerous calls that violate the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA"), 47 U.S.C. § 227, promoting the goods and services of Vivint. Vivint contests those claims.
What are the terms of the Proposed Settlement?
The total amount of the Settlement Fund is $6,000,000. To make a claim, you must complete and send in a Claim Form certifying that you received on or after September 17, 2008, either (a) a pre-recorded call advertising Vivint goods or services; (b) more than one telephone call in a 12-month period promoting Vivint goods or services to a number registered on the National Do Not Call Registry or Vivint's internal Do Not Call list; or (c) a telephone call made to a cellular telephone using an automatic telephone dialing system. If the Court approves the Settlement, every Class Member who submits a timely and valid Claim Form will be entitled to an equal payment from the Settlement Fund. The amount of your payment will depend on a number of factors, including how many Class Members return valid Claim Forms. Each Class Member is entitled to make only one claim, regardless of the number of telephone calls received. You can receive all of the details regarding the Proposed Settlement by visiting HomeAlarmTCPASettlement.com, or calling 1-866-797-0862.
What are my rights?
If you received one of the calls described above:
- You can make a Claim to get money from the Settlement Fund. All Claim Forms must be submitted online or postmarked no later than July 28, 2014.
- If you do not want to be a member of the Class, you must send a letter and ask to be excluded. Your request must be postmarked no later than July 28, 2014. If you do not exclude yourself, you agree never to sue Vivint in the future for the claims covered by this Settlement.
- You can tell the Court if you do not like this Proposed Settlement, or some part of it, if you do not exclude yourself. To object or comment, you must send a letter that is mailed and post‑marked no later than July 28, 2014. You may also hire your own lawyer, at your own cost, to speak for you.
A detailed Notice and the Claim Form are available at HomeAlarmTCPASettlement.com, or by writing the Claims Administrator at the address below. The detailed Notice explains how to exclude yourself or comment on the case. It also explains what rights you are giving up if you stay in the Class.
Will the Court Approve the Proposed Settlement?
The Court will hold a Final Approval Hearing on August 25, 2014, at 10:00 a.m., to consider whether the Proposed Settlement is fair, reasonable, and adequate; the motion for attorneys' fees and expenses; and the motion for compensation awards to the Class Representative. If comments or objections have been received, the Court will consider them at that time.
