Individuals who operated a licensed cardroom or provided proposition player services in California between Jan. 1, 2005, and May 12, 2020, may be eligible to claim a share of a class action settlement.

The California Gambling Control Commission and the Bureau of Gambling Control agreed to pay $43.3 million to settle a class action lawsuit alleging they collected regulatory fees from cardrooms and proposition player providers that exceeded what California law allowed.
Former owners or operators may receive a notice, but the right to participate may belong to later owners or others with a legal interest in the business.
