Manna Pro customers in California who purchased rabbit food marketed as containing no corn may be eligible to benefit from a $62,500 class action settlement.
The Class is made up of anyone who purchased a bag of Select Series Pro Formula Rabbit Food while residing in California between Jan. 30, 2014, and May 14, 2019.
Current or former employees, officers, directors, agents, or legal representatives of Manna Pro Products and its affiliated entities are not eligible to participate.
No proof of purchase is required with the initial claim; however, additional information supporting the claim may be requested in the future.
A class action lawsuit had claimed Manna Pro marketed and sold the rabbit food as containing no corn, when certain bags sold in California were actually found to contain the ingredient, violating California’s False Advertisement and Unfair Competition laws.
Manna Pro has denied all allegations of wrongdoing, and the Court has not ruled in favor of either party.
However, both parties agree a settlement is in everyone’s best interest in order to avoid ongoing litigation.
Manna Pro touts itself as a manufacturer of “high-quality, nutritionally wholesome feeds, supplements and treats” for animals, according to the company’s website.
Manna Pro sells products for pets, such as cats and dogs, as well as for poultry, goats and sheep, cattle, swine, and other animals.
Under the terms of the settlement agreement, Class Members are entitled to a pro rata share of the settlement fund.
If the settlement is approved, Class Members submitting a valid claim form will receive a check by mail.
A final approval hearing is scheduled for May 28, 2021.
Class Members who want to opt out of or object to the settlement must do so by May 10, 2021.
The deadline to file a claim is June 9, 2021.

Hello, did you receive the check for this rabbit food settlement? Anyone else received too? I cant find the status of this settlement whether checks have really been distributed?
I have been wondering the same. Looks like another case of “lawyers got all the money”
I emailed them and was told to call them. I called and left a message on Monday 7/25 and nobody has called me back.
I did not receive a check but a letter asking for proof of purchases when I filled was sent instead I filled for no proof ..
Worthless dummies at this pet food company! I also received the same postcard in the mail informing me that my claim was invalid.
Got the notice in the mail today (7/21) for proof. I emailed them at the email they listed and it looks like the email address is invalid. Anybody have that problem? The email is mannaproclaimproof@simpluris.com
Yes I am too. Got Notice of Claim Deficiency! And email is non existent
Try info@simpluris.com thats how I got an email back asking me to give them a call. I got my postcard the before the expiration date to get the proof back to them.
Bizarre. Mailpiece was shown via Informed Delivery but never arrived.
Who saves receipts for rabbit food from 7 years ago. These clowns want proof last minute there is only 3 days to submit proof. They never planned on paying out a dime of the measly $62,500 that all went to lawyers and administrative costs. These postcards are nothing but a waste of money and a blanket denial.
Wow they say no proof. And then they want proof. What a joke
