United States District Court 

Northern District of California 

 The parties must comply with both the Court’s Standing Order in Civil Cases and Standing 

Order for Pretrial Instructions in Civil Cases for additional deadlines and procedures. All Standing 

Orders are available on the Court’s website at http://www.cand.uscourts.gov/ygrorders. Further, the 

parties should review the District’s Procedural Guidance for Class Action Settlements. 

Counsel is advised that in order to ensure that settlements being brought before the Court are 

fair and reasonable, and to ensure transparency, accountability, and class participation, the Court will 

require, as part of any application for approval, counsel to provide the following information for each 

of their five most recent approved and fully distributed class settlements: 

The total settlement fund, the total number of class members, the total number of class 

members to whom notice was sent and not returned as undeliverable, the number and 

percentage of claim forms submitted, the number and percentage of opt-outs, the 

number and percentage of objections, the average and median recovery per claimant, 

the largest and smallest amounts paid to class members, the method of notice and the 

method of payment to class members, the number and value of checks not cashed, the 

amounts distributed to each cy pres recipient, the administrative costs, the attorneys’ 

costs, the experts’ fees, and the attorneys’ fees in terms of total amount, percentage of 

the settlement fund, and multiplier. 

Counsel should be prepared to summarize this information in easy-to-read charts that allow for quick 

comparisons with other cases and include a column with the anticipated results of the action at 

issue. The parties can also expect to provide the same information after final distribution and 

payment of any attorneys’ fees. 

IT IS SO ORDERED. 

Dated: August 21, 2018
