Dear Class Member:

On Friday, we mailed you a check for your share of the settlement fund in the Pickett v. Exel Inc (d/b/a DHL Supply Chain) matter.

Due to a printer error, the routing number on the check was invalid, and the check may be returned if cashed.  If you have not already attempted to cash your original check, please do not cash the check that was dated October 20, 2023.  We will be mailing a replacement check dated October 25, 2023 to you tomorrow, if your original check has not already cleared.  Please deposit the October 25 replacement check once it is received.

If you have already attempted to deposit your original check and had it returned after the fact, and if you incurred any bank fees as a result of this error, please send us a copy of these fees to info@DHLSCSettlement.com and we will reimburse you for any bank expenses that you incurred.

We apologize for the error and any inconvenience that this may cause.
