Publix (Background Check)
Defendant: Publix
The lawsuit alleges Publix failed to notify employees and applicants that background checks were being conducted for employment purposes in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Individuals who were not given “stand alone” disclosures of the background check issued for employment purposes between March 12, 2012 and May 13, 2014 may be eligible for up to $48.55.
Settlement checks were mailed on November 26, 2014. Settlement checks must be cashed on or before May 25, 2015.
