UPDATE 11/25/25
Raisner Roupinian LLP filed a class action complaint on December 22, 2024, against Party City Holdco, Inc., and affiliated entities (collectively “Defendants”) seeking to recover 60 days’ wages and benefits for terminated employees under the federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (“WARN”) Act and the New Jersey Millville Dallas Airmotive Plant Job Loss Notification Act (“New Jersey WARN Act”).
We contended Defendants ordered mass layoffs beginning on or about December 20, 2024, without providing 60 days’ written notice as required by the federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (“WARN”) Act and the New Jersey Millville Dallas Airmotive Plant Job Loss Notification Act (“New Jersey WARN Act”). The United States Bankruptcy Court for The Southern District of Texas Houston Division adjudicated the case.
On April 21, 2025, the United States Bankruptcy Court for The Southern District of Texas Houston Division appointed our firm, Raisner Roupinian LLP, as interim class counsel on behalf of those employees terminated on or about December 20, 2024, without 60 days’ advance written notice. Then, we sent a confidential attorney – client email update to our class members on June 11, 2025.
On July 8, 2025, the Court certified the WARN case as a class action. Additionally, they appointed the Plaintiff as the class representative, and Raisner Roupinian LLP as Class Counsel.
THE CERTIFIED CLASS
The certified class (the “Class”) is defined as Plaintiff and all former employees who worked at, reported to, or received assignments from Defendants’ facility at 100 Tice Blvd, Woodcliff Lake, NJ who were terminated without cause on or about December 20, 2024, or within 30 days of that date, or as the reasonably foreseeable consequence of the mass layoffs and/or plant closings ordered by Defendants on or about December 20, 2024.
Subsequently, we sent another confidential attorney – client email update to our class members on July 9, 2025. Shortly thereafter the settlement administrator mailed the notice of the class action to class members on July 18, 2025.
On August 27, 2025, the Court granted preliminary approval of our class action settlement subject to final approval at a fairness hearing scheduled for October 17, 2025. Accordingly, the settlement administrator mailed the settlement notice by first class mail to all class members on September 15, 2025.
On October 17, 2025, the court granted final approval of the settlement. The settlement administrator sent individual settlement checks by first class mail to class members on November 25, 2025.

THE WARN ACT
Raisner Roupinian LLP will provide you with information regarding your rights in this case. For example, the federal WARN Act requires companies with at least 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 Act laws.
If an employer fails to give the required notice, then they may be liable for 60 days’ wages and benefits to each affected employee.
