Call Kate Nelson at 202-742-7453 at the law firm...I just did. this suit is different than the gender...unless you lived in NY or CA, you had to OPT IN to be a part of the class...the deadline was 2007. These are the facts, so stop the speculation...no money to those of you who did not OPT IN or do not live in NY or CA...period!

Then hold on tight for the ride, there will be many more to follow!!!

Just spoke with Kate Nelson and these are the facts as of 2 minutes ago:

1) If you live in NY or CA, then you are automatically part of the class action. If you live anywhere else, you had to OPT-IN. If you did not OPT-IN.....its too late, the deadline has already passed.

2) The case is STILL PENDING, Novartis is still contemplating whether or not they want to take this to court. Since there is NO official judgement, the claims of $1300 (times months of service) and December 5, 2011 delivery date, are ABSOLUTELY FALSE!!!!

Kate Nelson mentioned that they are working to resolve it, BUT....there is no immediate resolution date in sight.

Any other questions, just call her, she is extremely friendly and more than willing to give you the "straight" story.

Good Luck to all of the NY, CA and "opt-in" reps. Like one of the previous posters said, "strap in and get ready for a long ride".

Spoke to Carl as well a few weeks ago. They field at least 5 calls about this daily. He told me that the amount awarded to reps would be in the arena of $1300 and that every rep is entitled to it. The December timeframe is sketchy though. First quarter of 2012 is the date that the communication will be sent out. Whether you are with the company or not, this will be awarded to you. Hopefully this helps. Good luck.

Every rep, do you mean every rep employed during the inclulsion time frame regardless of whether they are in California or New York or opted in, or every rep meaning just CA, NY and "Opt In" reps?

$1300 dollar award - Do you mean "total" or $1300 x months worked during the time frame being looked at?

Stop being stupid, you will not be pad anything if you did not opt in or live in CA or NY.

I also spoke to Kate Nelson today. The information about having to opt in is 100% correct. Unless you are in NY or CA, or an opt in, you are out of luck. She seemed very annoyed with the amount of Bullshit being spewed on here. Stop spreading rumors, no end is in sight.

Approx a grand per month for each month worked for folks who were with company from 04- now. Check coming 2012. It may even be 1300 but I have had contact as well with the firm. It's been so long since I have contacted them. I'm sure the company will appeal.

Well, what if we were never asked to opt-in? I suspect most of us would have opted in given the opportunity. A lot of us were employed during those dates that were effected by excessive overtime. If I'm not included because I didn't opt in then I will likely pursue further legal action.

Bull Sh**ter on here again. One of the males that is still pissed about the gender payout. You are hillarious!

Spoke to law firm last Friday. The nice lady who is handling all the calls said to me that it will take a while because Novartis is going to try and make the payout amount per rep as low as possible, and the lawyers for us will fight to have them payout the highest possible.
Eventually they will have to come to a figure, somewhere in the middle, and then we can get paid.

Also, there is no real numbers yet on payout, so people trying to guess how much are truly clueless.
