List of Class Action Suits: Open Settlements and Active Litigation

If you’re looking for a list of class action lawsuits you may be eligible to join or file a claim in, dozens are currently open across the United States, covering data breaches, deceptive subscriptions, defective products, privacy violations, and more. Some pay a flat amount with no documentation; others reimburse thousands in losses. Each has a strict deadline, and missing it usually means forfeiting any payout.

Below is a working rundown of the major settlements accepting claims now, the biggest cases still being litigated, what people realistically receive, and how to file.

Settlements Accepting Claims Now

Amazon Prime (FTC Settlement) — Up to $51

The Federal Trade Commission reached a $2.5 billion settlement with Amazon over allegations that the company enrolled customers in Prime through deceptive design and made cancellation unnecessarily difficult. Of that total, $1.5 billion is set aside for customer refunds.¹

Eligible customers can receive up to $51 each. To qualify, you must have been a U.S. Prime member who signed up between June 23, 2019, and June 23, 2025, through a “challenged enrollment flow” (such as a checkout or shipping selection page), or who tried and failed to cancel during that period, and used no more than three Prime benefits in any 12-month stretch after enrolling. Amazon sent automatic refunds to some eligible customers in late 2025 and mailed claim notices to the rest starting in January 2026. Payment options include check, PayPal, or Venmo. Deadline: July 21, 2026.²

Comcast Xfinity Data Breach — Up to $10,000

After an October 2023 breach exposed personal information of millions of Xfinity customers, Comcast agreed to a $117.5 million settlement fund in Hasson v. Comcast Cable Communications, LLC. Class members can claim up to $10,000 for documented out-of-pocket losses (identity theft expenses, fraud charges, credit monitoring costs) plus up to five hours of lost time at $30 per hour. Those without documented losses can take an alternative cash payment of roughly $50, though the final amount may shift depending on claim volume. All class members also receive three years of identity defense and credit monitoring. Deadline: September 14, 2026.³⁴

Google Assistant Privacy — $2 to $56 Per Device

Google agreed to pay $68 million to resolve claims that Assistant-enabled devices recorded conversations without permission through “false activations.” Eligible class members include anyone in the United States who purchased a Google-made device with Google Assistant (Pixel phones, Nest and Home speakers, Nest Hub displays, Pixelbook laptops, Pixel Buds, or Chromecast with Google TV) between May 18, 2016, and March 19, 2026, or whose communications were captured by a false activation and shared with third-party reviewers. Device purchasers may receive an estimated $18 to $56 per device; the broader “privacy-only” class may receive $2 to $10. Deadline: August 27, 2026.⁵⁶

Hyundai and Kia Defective Airbags — $62.1 Million Fund

Hyundai and Kia settled claims that certain vehicles contain defective airbag control units that could fail to deploy in a collision. The settlement covers owners or lessees of qualifying vehicles who held the vehicle in the U.S. as of April 14, 2025. Eligible class members can receive reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses plus a separate payment. Deadline: March 29, 2027.⁷

Other Open Settlements With Approaching Deadlines

Shimano Hollowtech II cranksets manufactured before 2019: extended warranty coverage, inspections, or reimbursement for replacement costs. Deadline August 4, 2026.⁷
Bank of America 7-Eleven ATM fees: former account holders charged out-of-network fees can file by June 29, 2026; current customers receive automatic credits.⁸
Ashley, Nectar, DreamCloud, and Siena fiberglass mattresses sold between October 2017 and June 2024: deadline July 17, 2026.⁸
Sprouts Farmers Market receipt-printing (card receipts displaying more than the last five digits between August 2020 and October 2022): deadline August 5, 2026.⁸
Tinder Plus and Gold age discrimination: deadline August 18, 2026.⁹

Several data breach settlements are also accepting claims: Capital Health ($4.5 million fund, deadline April 6, 2026), Lockton Southeast ($9.9 million, deadline April 7, 2026), Panda Restaurant Group ($2.45 million, deadline April 10, 2026), and Eye Physicians of Central Florida (up to $7,500 per claimant, deadline May 15, 2026).⁹

Major Cases Still Being Litigated

These cases have not yet settled, so there is no claim form to file today. If you were affected, the relevant step is usually consulting a lawyer handling the case, or watching for notice if a class is later certified or a settlement reached.

Social Media Youth Mental Health (MDL 3047)

More than 2,600 lawsuits alleging that social media platforms harmed the mental health of children and teenagers have been consolidated before Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers in the Northern District of California. The litigation includes roughly 800 school district claims and thousands of individual personal injury cases against Meta (Facebook and Instagram), YouTube, TikTok, and Snapchat.¹⁰

In March 2026, a California jury in the first state-court bellwether, KGM v. Meta & YouTube, found both companies liable and awarded approximately $6 million on negligence and failure-to-warn theories. TikTok and Snapchat reached confidential settlements shortly before the trial. The first federal school district bellwether was set for June 2026, but all defendants settled with the Breathitt County, Kentucky, district in May 2026 before trial; the district had sought more than $60 million. Federal bellwether trials for individual injury claims are expected in late 2026.¹¹

Johnson & Johnson Talcum Powder

Johnson & Johnson faces at least 68,000 lawsuits alleging that its talcum powder products caused ovarian cancer and mesothelioma. The company’s attempts to resolve the litigation through bankruptcy have been rejected three times; in April 2025, a judge blocked an $8 billion proposal. In December 2025, a Baltimore jury awarded $1.5 billion to a single mesothelioma victim, the largest J&J talc verdict so far. J&J was ordered into mediation in September 2025 to discuss a potential global settlement for ovarian cancer claims, and new lawsuits continue to be filed.¹²

PFAS “Forever Chemicals” Water Contamination

Thousands of cases involving PFAS have been consolidated in a multidistrict litigation in South Carolina, centered on aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) that leached PFAS into drinking water. 3M agreed to pay up to $12.5 billion over 13 years, and DuPont roughly $1.2 billion; smaller settlements with Tyco Fire Products, Chemguard, and BASF have also received final approval. These funds are for water testing, treatment systems, and PFAS-removal infrastructure in affected public water systems rather than individual consumers.¹³ Phase 2 claims deadlines for the 3M and DuPont settlements run through mid-2026, with a supplemental fund open through 2030. 3M also agreed to pay New Jersey up to $450 million in a state-level settlement announced in May 2025, and personal injury bellwether trials in the federal MDL were scheduled for late 2025.¹⁴

Real Estate Commissions (Burnett v. NAR)

The National Association of Realtors agreed to a $418 million settlement in Burnett et al. v. NAR, an antitrust case alleging the industry’s commission structure inflated fees paid by home sellers. Related settlements with Anywhere, RE/MAX, and Keller Williams received final approval in May 2024, but appeals filed by class members are pending in the Eighth Circuit, and no payments can be distributed until those appeals are resolved. NAR’s policy changes under the settlement took effect in August 2024.¹⁵

Tech Antitrust

Google Search: a federal judge ruled in 2024 that Google illegally maintained its search monopoly; a remedies order followed in September 2025.¹⁶
Google ad tech: a judge ruled in April 2025 that Google monopolized the online display advertising market; a remedies trial was set for September 2025.¹⁶
Apple: a multistate case with the DOJ alleges Apple restricts third-party access to digital wallets and alternative app stores. Apple’s motion to dismiss was denied in June 2025.¹⁶
Live Nation/Ticketmaster: a multistate and DOJ case over exclusionary venue contracts, retaliation, and acquisitions is pending in the Southern District of New York.¹⁶

Generic Drug Price-Fixing

A $17.85 million national settlement with Lannett Company and Bausch Health received preliminary court approval in February 2026, covering consumers who purchased certain generics between May 2009 and December 2019.¹⁷ A new lawsuit filed by 42 states and territories in February 2026 targets Novartis and Sandoz for similar conduct, and prior multistate settlements in the generic drug cases total $49.1 million. The first trial is anticipated in late 2026.¹⁸

Other Active Litigation

Baby formula (NEC): claims that Similac and Enfamil makers failed to warn that cow’s-milk-based formula can cause necrotizing enterocolitis in premature infants.¹⁹
Depo-Provera: claims the injectable contraceptive caused meningiomas (brain tumors).¹⁹
Online gambling: mass arbitrations and addiction suits against DraftKings and FanDuel over marketing to underage users and addictive design.¹⁹
Employment misclassification: drivers for Amazon Flex, Lyft, Instacart, and Walmart Spark allege improper independent-contractor classification.²⁰
RealPage rent-fixing: a 2025 lawsuit against RealPage and nine large landlords over algorithmic rent pricing. Trial is scheduled for October 2027.¹⁶
Data privacy: ongoing cases against Meta, Marriott, Change Healthcare, Snowflake, and LiveRamp over breaches, biometric data, and tracking.²¹

What You Actually Get Paid

Headline settlement figures and individual payouts are two different numbers. In low-stakes consumer cases, individual payments often land between $10 and $50. Higher-stakes product cases pay more: Volkswagen emissions paid $5,100 to $10,000 per person, Juul paid up to $9,000, and the Facebook biometric privacy case averaged about $397 per claimant. At the other end, some Apple Siri data claimants received less than $1.²²

Attorney fees and administrative costs come out of the fund before any distribution. In the Target data breach settlement, lawyers received $6.75 million of a $10 million fund. In a pizza-shop robocall case, attorneys collected over $2.5 million while 253 claimants split roughly $8,800. Lead plaintiffs who carried the risk of representing the class typically receive more than other members. The more people who file, the smaller each share becomes.²³

Payouts also take time. Most class members wait six months to several years after court approval before receiving a check, due to administrative processing and potential appeals.²²

How to File a Claim or Join a Case

When a Settlement Already Exists

For most settlements, the only step is completing the claim form by the deadline. Class members are usually notified by mail, email, or text with a link to the official settlement website. Some settlements require proof of purchase or documentation of losses (receipts, medical records, bank statements); others pay a flat amount with no documentation. Each notice spells out what’s required.²⁴

When a Case Is Still Being Litigated

Most class actions are “opt-out,” which means anyone meeting the class definition is automatically included without taking action. To be excluded, you have to file opt-out paperwork by a court-imposed deadline. A smaller number of cases, especially employment disputes, are “opt-in” and require paperwork to participate. Joining is free; attorneys work on contingency and collect only from a successful settlement or verdict.²⁵

One trade-off matters. If you remain in a class action, you generally cannot pursue an individual lawsuit over the same issue. If you believe your individual damages are significantly larger than the class share, opting out and filing your own case may be worth considering, with its own costs and risks.²⁶

Time Limits

There is no single statute of limitations for class actions in the United States. Timeframes vary by claim type and jurisdiction, but four to six years from the date of injury (or discovery) is common. Filing a class action pauses the clock for all potential class members under a doctrine known as “American Pipe tolling,” so the limitations period is suspended while the court decides whether to certify the class.²⁷

Where to Track New Settlements

New settlements open regularly, and deadlines pass quickly. Three searchable databases cover most open cases:

Consumer Action (consumer-action.org/lawsuits): a nonprofit-run database filterable by status with a claims deadline calendar and monthly newsletter.⁷
Top Class Actions (topclassactions.com): open settlements, active investigations, and a tracker for settlement checks being mailed.²⁸
ClassAction.org: active lawsuits, investigations, settlements, legal news, and attorney referrals, with a free weekly newsletter.²⁹

Subscribing to email alerts from one of these services is the most reliable way to avoid missing a claim you qualify for.
