Frequently Asked Questions
This is a notice of a proposed settlement in a class action lawsuit. The settlement would resolve the lawsuit Mr. Campbell filed against Everything Breaks. Please read this notice carefully. It explains the lawsuit, the settlement and your legal rights, including the process for receiving a settlement award, excluding yourself from the settlement, or objecting to the settlement.
Mr. Campbell filed a class action lawsuit against Everything Breaks alleging that it violated the TCPA by calling individuals that had registered their telephone numbers on the national Do Not Call List or who had previously told them not to call or that they were already covered. Everything Breaks denies the allegations, and denies that it violated the TCPA. The Court did not decide who is right or wrong. The parties have agreed to a settlement.
In a class action, one or more people called “class representatives” file a lawsuit on behalf of people who have similar claims. All of these people together are a “class” or “class members.” The Court accordingly resolves claims for all class members, except for those who exclude themselves from the class.
Mr. Campbell, on the one hand, and Everything Breaks, on the other, agreed to settle the lawsuit to avoid the time, risk, and expense associated with it, and to achieve a final resolution of the disputed claims. Under the settlement, participating class members will obtain a payment in settlement of the claims Mr. Campbell raised in the lawsuit. Mr. Campbell, and his attorneys, think the settlement is fair and reasonable.
This settlement resolves claims on behalf of the following class:
All persons in the United States who, (a) during the Class Period, (1) received two or more telephone solicitation calls made by or on behalf of Defendant, (2) on a telephone number that appears on the National Do Not Call Registry for at least 31 days at the time of the calls, or (2) received two or more telemarketing calls in a 12-month period, with at least one being received after being marked as “DNC”, “Do Not Call”, or “Already Covered” in Defendant’s records, (b) where the telephone number appears on EBI_000029 or EBI_000030, and (c) where the telephone number was obtained by Defendant in the same manner Defendant obtained Plaintiff’s telephone number.
Everything Breaks will establish a settlement fund in the amount of $995,000 to compensate members of the class. Out of the settlement fund will be paid:
- Settlement compensation to class members who submit timely, valid claims;
- Notice and administration costs;
- An award of attorneys’ fees not to exceed twenty-five percent of the settlement fund, subject to the Court’s approval;
- Costs and expenses incurred litigating the claims in this matter, subject to the Court’s approval; and
- A service award to Mr. Campbell not to exceed $5,000, subject to the Court’s approval
Each class member who submits a timely and valid Claim Form will be entitled, subject to the provisions of the Settlement Agreement, to his or her equal share of the $995,000 settlement fund as it exists after deducting:
- Notice and administration costs;
- An award of attorneys’ fees;
- Costs and expenses incurred in litigating the claims in this matter; and
- A service award to Mr. Campbell.
It is estimated that each participating class member will receive between $36 and $144. The actual amount each participating class member will receive may be more or less depending on the number of class members who submit timely, valid claims.
You must mail a valid Claim Form to the Campbell v. Everything Breaks Settlement Administrator, P.O. Box 301132, Los Angeles, CA 90030-1132 postmarked by April 9, 2025. Or you must submit a valid claim on the File a Claim section of this website by April 9, 2025.
If the Court grants final approval of the settlement, settlement checks will be mailed to class members who timely mailed or submitted valid Claim Forms after the judgment in the lawsuit becomes final. If there is an appeal of the settlement, payment may be delayed.
If you fall within the class, you will give up your right to sue or continue a lawsuit against Everything Breaks and other released parties over the released claims, unless you exclude yourself from the settlement (opt out) by following the instructions set out in this notice before the opt-out deadline. Giving up your legal claims is called a release. Unless you formally opt out from the settlement, you will release claims against Everything Breaks and other released parties.
For more information on the release, released parties, and released claims, you may obtain a copy of the class action settlement agreement on the Case Documents section of this settlement website, or from the Clerk of the United States District Court for the District of Nevada.
You may exclude yourself (opt out) from the settlement, in which case you will not receive a payment, and you will not release your claims against Everything Breaks and other released parties. If you wish to exclude yourself from the settlement, you must mail a written request for exclusion to the Settlement Administrator at the following address, postmarked by March 25, 2025:

You must include in your request for exclusion your:

The Court will hold a final fairness hearing on June 4, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. The hearing will take place in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada, 333 Las Vegas Blvd. South, Las Vegas, NV 89101. At the final fairness hearing, the Court will consider whether the settlement is fair, reasonable, and adequate and, if so, whether final approval of the settlement should be granted. The Court will hear objections to the settlement, if any. The Court may make a decision at that time, postpone a decision, or continue the hearing.
The date of the final fairness hearing may change without further notice. Class members should check this settlement website, or the Court’s Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) system to confirm that the date has not changed.
No, there is no requirement that you attend the hearing. However, you are welcome to attend the hearing at your own expense. You cannot speak at the hearing if you have excluded yourself from the class because the settlement no longer affects your legal rights.
If you do not exclude yourself from the settlement, you can object to the settlement, or any part of it, if you do not believe it is fair, reasonable, and adequate. If you wish to object, you must mail a written notice of objection, postmarked by March 25, 2025, to the Court and counsel for the parties at the following addresses:
