Status Update – Status Conference

In a relatively short status conference this afternoon, the EEOC Administrative Judge let everyone know that the process is slowly moving forward one step at a time. She set a deadline of March 31, 2020 to submit any and all supplemental documentation regarding claims. Therefore, if you have not already provided us with a Disability Form (“Supplemental Declaration Regarding Disability”), you must provide that form to us right away so that it can be filed by March 31. If you need another copy of the Disability Form to complete, please contact us at 585-272-0540. (If you have already completed that form and submitted it to us, there is no other action needed by you at this time.)

The Judge stated that she is in the process of organizing all of the claim records, and that she hopes to begin reviewing the substance of those claims later this Spring. She emphasized, as she has previously, that the process may take some time, due to the very large number of claims. She also stated that she will continue speaking to the lawyers during the next few months about the possibility of settlement. However, please keep in mind that the Postal Service has not yet made a settlement offer to resolve any of the claims in this case.

Again, if you have not yet provided us with a Disability Form (“Supplemental Declaration Regarding Disability”), you must provide that form to us right away so that it can be filed with the Judge by March 31.

Status Update – Pittman Settlement Letters

It has come to our attention that a number of people who were Class Members in the Pittman v. USPS class action have been receiving letters from USPS about that settlement process. The letters state that the USPS has possession of your settlement claim form from the Pittman class action, and you can request a copy of the claim form from the USPS.

Please note that this does not directly relate to your claim in the NRP Class Action. We were not involved in the process of USPS accessing Pittman settlement documents, and those documents do not directly relate to the NRP Class Action.

We recommend that if you do receive a letter about the Pittman v. USPS class action, you request a copy of your claim form and retain it for your records. You can send a letter that states “I request a copy of my Claim Form from the Pittman class action,” and provide your mailing address. You should mail this letter to:

USPS – NELU
600 17th Street, Suite 1705-S
Denver, CO 80202

There is no need at this time to send a copy of the Pittman claim form to our offices. We recommend that you retain the claim form documents for your records. For more information about the Pittman class action, please go to http://www.pittmanclass.com. Thank you.
