What happened

A proposed class action against the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, apparently concerning antitrust violations. The named plaintiffs include Victoria Ross, Jennifer Mizell, Maria Paulding, Kathleen Peapples, and Nathan Simpson. The case is docketed under the federal antitrust nature-of-suit code, but the specific anticompetitive conduct alleged is not detailed in the available docket text. These are allegations in a putative class action and have not been proven.

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.
