Amazon/JARS Settlement

Timothy Coleman v. Amazon.com, Inc.; Amazon Logistics, Inc.; Amazon.com Services, Inc.; JARS TD, Inc., Case No. 2:21-cv-02200-JPM-atc

Consent to Join

If you performed work as a Delivery Associate and were paid by JARS to deliver packages for customers of Amazon.com in the US between Oct 29, 2018 – Apr 30, 2022, you may be eligible for a Settlement Award.

The United States District Court for the Western District of Tennessee (“Court”) presides over this Lawsuit, which was filed on April 1, 2021 by named Plaintiff Timothy Coleman (“Named Plaintiff”) against JARS TD, Inc., Amazon.com, Inc., Amazon Logistics, Inc., and Amazon.com Services, Inc. (“Defendants”).

Named Plaintiff brought the Lawsuit as a “collective action” on behalf of himself and other individuals who performed work as a Delivery Associate and were paid by JARS to deliver packages for customers of Amazon.com in the United States at any time between October 29, 2018 through April 30, 2022 (the “Covered Period”) (altogether, the “Settlement Collective Members”). Named Plaintiff alleged that he and the Settlement Collective Members were not paid for all hours worked, including overtime compensation to which they were entitled under the law.

The settlement is a compromise. It allows the Parties to avoid the costs and risks of further litigation or arbitration, and provides money to Opt-In Plaintiffs without delay. In reaching this Settlement, Defendants have not admitted that they violated any laws, and the Court did not decide in favor of the Plaintiff or Defendants.
