CRISTINA SCHROER v. LAKE CHASE CONDO. ASSOCIATION INC.

Towing records indicate you are a member of the class that is defined as follows: “All persons whose vehicles were non-consensually towed from the privately owned property commonly known as Lake Chase located in Hillsborough County, Florida from October 12, 2014 through January 1, 2020.” The class excludes any individuals who already received reimbursement from Lake Chase or who timely file a valid written notice of intent to opt out of the Settlement.

If the Court approves the settlement you will receive a payment by check.  The Settlement Fund will be divided equally on a pro rata basis among all Settlement Class Members who do not opt out of the settlement.  The gross amount payable to each Settlement Class Member  will be a maximum of $55.00. The settlement includes a release, which is binding on all class members.

To receive a settlement payment, you do not need to do anything.  You will receive your pro-rata portion of the net Settlement Fund provided you do not opt-out of the Settlement, as described in further detail below.

The Court appointed attorney Felipe Fulgencio from Fulgencio Law, P.L.L.C to represent the Settlement Class. He will seek a service award of $950.00 for the Named Plaintiff who brought this case. You may hire and pay for a lawyer at your own expense if you do not wish to be represented by Class Counsel.

You may exclude yourself from participating in the Settlement or object to its terms. To exclude yourself (“opt out”) and keep any rights you may have against Lake Chase concerning the signage at issue in this lawsuit, you must specifically state in writing that you want to opt out of the Settlement and send your written notice to the Claims Administrator by June 22, 2021.  If you do not opt out of the Settlement, you may object to the terms of the proposed Settlement by filing a written objection with the Court by June 22, 2021 at 11 am.

The Final Approval Hearing will be conducted before the Honorable Judge Carl C. Hinson, or other presiding judge, in the Circuit Court of the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit in and for Hillsborough  County, Florida, located at 800 E.
