The settlement announced on 17 March 2024 in the Uber Class Action must be approved by the Supreme Court of Victoria. 

 

In broad terms, the settlement approval process has two main steps.

 

First, the Court must approve a notice to be sent to group members, which explains the details of the settlement and outlines the process set down by the Court to consider the settlement (including the date of the approval hearing, if set). 

 

Second, the Court will hold a hearing to determine whether to approve the settlement. The timing of the settlement approval process will ultimately be determined and set by the Court. 

 

Important dates and deadlines related to the settlement approval process have not yet been set by the Court.

 

In the interim, the Uber class action team can still be contacted on 1800 291 047 or via Uber@mauriceblackburn.com.au (Source - Maurice Blackburn Lawyers)
