SETTLEMENT APPROVED
We filed suit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana on July 15, 2016, against EverGreen Recreational Vehicles, LLC (“EverGreen”), KR Enterprises, Inc. (“KR”), and JMA, LLC, (“JMA,” and together with EverGreen and KR, “Defendants”). We sought to recover 60 days wages and benefits for former employees under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (“WARN”) Act. We contend Defendants ordered mass layoffs on or about June 8, 2016, without providing the employees with advance written notice.
On December 10, 2019, the Court granted final approval of a class action settlement in the amount of $1.2 million. The settlement administrator mailed individual checks, net of class counsel’s fees, expenses and applicable withholding, to class members on January 22, 2020.
WARN ACT
Raisner Roupinian LLP will provide you with information regarding your rights in this WARN class action. The federal WARN Act requires companies with 100+ full-time employees to provide them with 60 days’ written notice in advance of a mass layoff or plant closing. Additionally, certain states also have WARN Acts.
Without the required notice, an employer may be liable for 60 days’ wages and benefits to each affected employee.
