An Amended Settlement provides up to $35.5 million to consumers who purchased the listed baby products from Babies "R" Us or Toys "R" Us ("BRU") in the U.S. A prior notice of proposed class action settlement was disseminated to Class Members in 2011.
The Class is divided into subclasses based on the baby product purchased. You can determine if you are part of one or more Settlement Subclasses by visiting the Settlement website below and viewing the chart of included products and dates of purchase.

Box 9679, Dublin, Ohio 43017-4979.
How to Get Money? If you are a member of a Settlement Subclass, you are eligible to receive money if you did not or do not request exclusion (or you revoke a prior request for exclusion) and you: (i) file a valid Claim Form supported by documentary proof of purchase(s); (ii) filed a valid Claim Form supported by documentary proof of purchase(s) in the Initial Settlement described on the website, or (iii) have been identified from BRU's records. The Claim Form must be postmarked, faxed or submitted online by August 22, 2014.
Your Other Rights. If you do not want to be legally bound by the Amended Settlement, you must exclude yourself by August 22, 2014. If you exclude yourself, you cannot get money from this Amended Settlement. If you already excluded yourself from the proposed Initial Settlement, you can revoke your exclusion. If you wish to revoke your exclusion, you must do so by August 22, 2014. If you stay in the Settlement Class, you may object to the Amended Settlement by August 22, 2014. The Full Notice, located at the website below, explains how to take these steps.
A hearing, to determine if the Amended Settlement is fair, adequate and reasonable, is scheduled for October 6, 2014 at 10:30 a.m. (ET) in Courtroom 7-B at the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, 601 Market St., Philadelphia, PA 19106.
