A judgment has been entered in favor of certain employees who worked at Walmart and Sam’s Club Stores. If you worked as an hourly employee at a Walmart or Sam’s Club store between Mar. 19, 1998 and May 1, 2006, you may be entitled to payment from this class action lawsuit.
The plaintiffs filed the Walmart class action lawsuit seeking redress for missed meal and rest breaks and for off-the-clock work that employees allegedly performed when employed by Walmart.
They asserted claims for breach of contract, violations of the Pennsylvania Minimum Wage Act, violations of the Pennsylvania Wage Payment and Collection Act, restitution and unjust enrichment.
This Walmart lawsuit was certified as a class action lawsuit on Dec. 27, 2005. Approximately 187,000 current and former Pennsylvania employees may be entitled to benefits from the Walmart class action lawsuit.
On Oct. 13, 2006, a jury returned a $78.5 million verdict in favor of Walmart Stores Inc. employees who were forced to miss rest breaks and work off the clock in Pennsylvania between Mar. 19, 1998 and May 1, 2006.
A judge awarded Class Members an additional $62.3 million in statutory damages. Approximately 124,500 Class Members are entitled to statutory damages.
Walmart appealed the verdict and the appeal reached the U.S. Supreme Court. However, the high court refused to hear the case earlier this year. Therefore, the judgment stands.
Who’s Eligible
Class Members include hourly employees who were employed by Walmart or Sam’s Club stores in Pennsylvania between Mar. 19, 1998 and May 1, 2006.
Potential Award
To Be Determined.
According to the settlement website, payments are expected to be made by the end of 2016.

Called yesterday, haven’t received my check they said “we didn’t anticipate the amount of checks we had to mail out, so a second round of checks were mailed this week, if you don’t get it by the end of the month, call us” so I said you guys told me my check was postmarked the 8th and should get it by the 2nd week of August, and she said, “oh I don’t know who told you that”
These guys are really getting on my nerves, nobody knows what the hell they are talking about, I want my damn check!
I got mine on August 10th from Indiana county. So happy I finally got it.
How much
Number please?
I called twice this week was told i have to wait until next batch goes out which they have no date for that yet i give up
The lady told me the batch would be sent out the end of November 2017 it’s december 11th and still nothing. How long from when they send the batch out do u have to wait?
I’m still waiting ?
How do i contact someone about my new address change to receive my check
Who will cash the checks don’t have a bank A
You will have to go to a bank. If it us below $1000 they should cash it otherwise you will have to open an account
Got mine yesterday ,from Ohio, no problem cashing either
Still waiting:(
I called today all the checks have been mailed out they started tuesday until end of week sending them out she told me if i dont get it by the 31st call back
Thanks, hope I get mine soon
What’s the no. Please
Can I have the number to call please?
Are you still waiting for the 1st check? Or is it the second round of checks?
This was the second round of checks for the ppl who did not get one in the first round …. We are only getting one check
From what i understand by this time class members are getting another check based on no responce and that money went into a pot for redistribution
There should have been 2nd checks by now because I’m certain they should have had money left over from the first round. Someone pocketed some money.
Got mine Crawford co
My son and I both received our checks Thursday. My check is on hold until Monday because of the large amount. Clarion County
