ALABAMA AND TEXAS PEX SETTLEMENT

Matson v. NIBCO Inc., Case No. 19-cv-01137-RBF-JKP (Western District of Texas), and

Garrett. v. NIBCO Inc., Case No. 19-cv-01137-RDP (District of Alabama)

UPDATE:

May 16, 2025, is the last day of the Claim Period, which means it is the latest date on which a Qualifying Leak eligible for a settlement payment can occur. Claimants have 150 days from the date a Qualifying Leak occurs to submit a claim for that leak, so the final day on which a claim can be submitted is October 13, 2025. The claim portal will close after this date. For more information, see the FAQs.

Please be aware that we currently estimate final payments, including second pro rata payments, to be made at the end of 2025 or early in 2026. This estimate may change. Check this website for updates.
