Common questions
- Can I file a claim in the Gatorade Marketing & Sales Practices Class Action case?
- No. This case has been filed and is still being litigated — there is no settlement, no claim form, and no payout. Many class actions are dismissed or never certified, so a case being filed does not mean anyone will be paid. If it settles and a claim process opens, that will be announced by a court-appointed settlement administrator.
- Where is the Gatorade Marketing & Sales Practices Class Action case being heard?
- The case is before the District Court, S.D. New York, case number 7:26-cv-05191. Everything alleged in the complaint is an allegation, not a proven fact.
