Important update:
The deadline to register to participate in any pre-trial settlement has now passed (the deadline was 4pm on 15 July 2024 (AEST)).
You may still register your interest in the class action, however you will not be eligible to claim money if there is a settlement before the trial, unless the Court makes a further order.
If you did not register before 4pm on 15 July 2024 (AEST) and you did not previously opt out of the class action, you may still be eligible to claim compensation if there is no pre-trial settlement.
What’s next?
- The mediation will occur on 19 August 2024.
- The trial will commence on 23 October 2024 in the Supreme Court of Victoria. Group members are not expected to participate in the trial.
- If you have registered, there is nothing further you need to do at this time, and we will contact you if there is a significant update such as a settlement or trial judgment.
- If you have registered and would like to update your contact details, please email allianzclassaction@jws.com.au.
