Welcome to the ARcare, Inc. v. Alere Home Monitoring Inc., Settlement Website
If Alere Home Monitoring, Inc. transmitted one or more facsimiles to you that may have included actual or alleged advertising, you may be entitled to a payment from a class action settlement.
A proposed settlement (the “Settlement”) has been reached in a proposed class action lawsuit styled ARcare, Inc. v. Alere Home Monitoring Inc., Case No. 4:17-CV-00147-KGB. The lawsuit claims that AHM violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (the “TCPA”) by transmitting unsolicited facsimile advertisements and advertisements that do not comply with the law’s requirements. AHM denies the claims made in the lawsuit and denies that it violated the law or did anything wrong. No trial has been held on the merits of any allegations against AHM or as to AHM’s defenses.
The Settlement creates a one million dollar ($1,000,000.00) settlement fund (the “Settlement Fund”) for the benefit of members of the following Settlement Class: Subscribers of facsimile telephone numbers to which there was a successful transmission of one or more facsimiles by or on behalf of any of the Released Parties from January 1, 2013 through the date of Preliminary Approval of the Settlement Agreement that related in any way to the business of AHM, and/or any products, goods, or services offered by AHM.
If you are a member of the Settlement Class, you may be entitled to share in the settlement proceeds. However, your legal rights are affected whether you act or do not act, so please read the Notice posted under the Case Documents tab carefully.
The Court in charge of this case still has to decide whether to finally approve the Settlement. Payments will be made if the Court finally approves the Settlement and after any appeals are resolved. Please be patient.
