A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit alleging certain Hydroxycut products sold through May 1, 2009 were misrepresented as clinically proven to be safe and effective for weight loss. If you purchased certain Hydroxycut weight loss products between May 9, 2006 and May 1, 2009, you could be eligible for free products or a cash refund.
The Hydroxycut class action lawsuit alleged the defendants misrepresented that certain Hydroxycut products were clinically proven to be safe and effective for weight loss. Twenty similar class action lawsuits have also been filed throughout the United States. They were centralized in multidistrict litigation titled In re: Hydroxycut Marketing and Sales Practices Litigation.
The defendants (Kerr Investment Holding Corp. f/k/a Iovate Health Sciences Group Inc., Iovate Health Sciences Inc., and Iovate Health Sciences USA Inc.) deny the allegations but agreed to pay $14 million to settle the Hydroxycut class action lawsuit to avoid burdensome and costly litigation. The Hydroxycut class action settlement was preliminarily approved earlier this year.

I don’t think the HCProClinical has paid out yet. Your $32.52 check is most likely your share of this settlement’s distribution. Those who got paid for 3 bottles got $97.57 checks. Divide that by 3 and it comes out to about $32.52/bottle. So basically, you got a check for 1 bottle of HC, based on the claim you submitted.
