Anadarko & Occidental Petroleum Corporation
Class Action Settlement
On June 5, 2025, the Court held a Final Fairness Hearing in the case. On June 6, 2025, the Court entered its Order Approving the Motion for the Plan for Allocation and Distribution (“Distribution Order”). This Distribution Order identified each Settlement Class Member and the amount of money from the Settlement to be paid to that Settlement Class Member. The Court also entered a Judgment that named the Converse County Bank as the Distribution Escrow Agent. The case was then closed. Settlement documents can be found by using the “Settlement Agreement Documents” link at the top of this webpage.
In keeping with the terms of Distribution Order and Judgement, Converse County Bank began sending Distribution Checks to Settlement Class Members listed in the Distribution Order. As of July 19, 2025, over 600 Distribution Checks have been sent to Settlement Class Members. Some Settlement Class members have received but not yet cashed their checks. Settlement Class Members who initially were sent a Distribution Check but have not yet cashed their checks are listed in the “Uncashed Check List,” which can be accessed at the link below. If your name is shown in the “Uncashed Check List,” please contact:
