Pork Producer Antitrust Settlement
Pork Producer Antitrust Settlement
Accepting Submissions
The lawsuit alleges that pork processors inflated and stabilized pork prices through Agri Stats, production limits, and exports. Clemens, Hormel, Seaboard, Triumph, and Tyson agreed to cash settlements, and Agri Stats agreed to business practice changes with no cash payment. The companies deny wrongdoing. If you file, you get a pro rata cash payment based on how much covered pork you bought, and the per-person amount is not yet known.
Claims are due October 29, 2026, and the deadline to opt out or object is also October 29, 2026. The court will hold a final approval hearing on December 11, 2026. Earlier settlements with JBS and Smithfield had a separate claim deadline that passed on April 22, 2026.
Eligibility
You may qualify if you bought raw pork bacon or fresh or frozen raw pork from bellies, loins, shoulders, ribs, or chops for personal use from June 28, 2014, through June 30, 2018, in one of 23 states or Washington, D.C. Organic, no-antibiotics-ever, and marinated, seasoned, flavored, or breaded products other than bacon are not covered. You do not need to send receipts when you file.
You bought raw pork bacon or covered raw pork cuts for personal use
You made the purchases between June 28, 2014, and June 30, 2018
You bought the pork in a covered state or Washington, D.C.
You file a claim by October 29, 2026
A claim form is required, and payment is not automatic. The court has not granted final approval, and the hearing is set for December 11, 2026. Payments are pro rata shares based on the pork each person bought, so amounts depend on how many valid claims are filed.
