What happened

A proposed class action against Char-Broil, LLC, apparently concerning property damage caused by a defective product. The case was transferred from the Eastern District of New York to the Northern District of Illinois. These are allegations in a newly filed case, not proven facts and not yet a settlement.

Do you qualify?

No settlement exists yet, so there is nothing to file and no class definition to check. If the case settles, the settlement will define exactly who qualifies — watch this case and we'll let you know.

How to file

There is no claim to file yet. If this case reaches a settlement, a claim process will open — usually with an official settlement website and a filing deadline.
