If you are a person Muscatine Power and Water (“Muscatine”) identified as being among those individuals impacted by targeted cyberattack on Muscatine's computer systems that occurred in January 2024 (the “Data Incident”), including all who were sent a notice of the Data Breach, you may be a Class Member and eligible for Settlement Benefits. Excluded from the Settlement Class are: (1) the Judge in this case, and the Judge’s family and staff; (2) Muscatine and its officers, directors, and related companies; and (3) anyone who validly excludes themselves from the Settlement.
If you are a Class Member and wish to receive Settlement Benefits then you must submit a claim form by October 26, 2026.
Muscatine will establish a Settlement Fund of $525,000.00. The Settlement Fund will first be used to pay court-approved attorneys’ fees and costs, Service Award payments for the Plaintiffs, and the costs of administering the Settlement. The net remaining money will be used to pay for the benefits described below.
Attested Time Spent. Class Members who spent time responding to the Data Incident may claim up to five (5) hours, at $20.00 per hour, for a maximum of $100.00. You must have spent the time on tasks related to the Data Incident. Some examples include things like:
Out-of-Pocket Expenses. Class Members who incurred actual, documented out-of-pocket expenses due to the Data Incident, can get back up to $500.00. The losses must have occurred between January 26, 2024, and October 26, 2026, and you cannot claim a payment for expenses that have already been reimbursed by a third party. This benefit covers out-of-pocket expenses like:
fees for credit reports, credit monitoring, or freezing and unfreezing your credit
cost to replace your IDs
postage to contact banks by mail
Documented Extraordinary Loss Payment. Class Members who lost money because of identity theft or fraud, can get back up to $5,000.00. The losses must have occurred between January 26, 2024, and October 26, 2026, and you cannot claim a payment for expenses that have already been reimbursed by a third party. You will need to show that:
the theft or fraud was probably caused by the Data Incident
the losses are not already covered by Out-of-Pocket Expenses
you tried to prevent the loss or get your money back, such as by using insurance you already have
If you are claiming for reimbursement for Out-of-Pocket Expenses and/or Documented Extraordinary Loss Payment, you will need to submit proof, like receipts, to show how much you spent or lost. You can also provide notes or papers you made yourself to explain or support other proof, but those notes or papers alone are not enough to make a valid claim. Your proof or notes should show that your expenses were because of the Data Incident.
