NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SERGIO L. RAMIREZ,

Plaintiff,

v.

TRANS UNION, LLC,

Defendant.

Case No. 12-cv-00632-JSC 

ORDER RE: PROPOSED CLASS 

NOTICE

Re: Dkt. No. 165

The Court has received and reviewed the parties’ stipulation regarding the proposed class 

notice. (Dkt. No. 165.) The Court grants the parties’ stipulation as follows:

1. The time allowed for opting out of the class shall be forty-five (45) days from the date of 

mailing of the Notice. Counsel for Plaintiff estimate that the notice administrator will be able to 

mail the Notice to class members by March 15, 2015, but in any event the Notice will provide a 

specific opt-out deadline that is at least 45 days after the date the Notice is mailed.

2. The Notice shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A the Joint Stipulation except 

the parties shall add the word statutory to the description of damages in section 5 as indicated in 

bold below. The notice administrator will format the Notice so that it is as readable as possible and 

shall fill in the blanks with the appropriate website and contact information.

5. What Is the Plaintiff Asking for on Behalf of the Class Members?

The Plaintiff is asking the Court to award between $100 and $1,000 

in statutory damages to each Class Member for each violation that 

is proven, as well as punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and costs. 

The Plaintiff is also asking for an order under California law relating 

to how OFAC data should be handled in the future.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: February 18, 2015
