A class action lawsuit against Nashville Booting LLC is on track to result in a $1 million settlement, potentially affecting thousands of individuals who faced excessive delays after their vehicles were booted. Filed by Kotchen & Law LLP, the lawsuit targets the company’s insurance policy with Liberty Mutual, as Nashville Booting reportedly lacks sufficient assets to cover the settlement independently. The class action covers incidents from July 2017 to June 2022, impacting between 2,000 and 5,000 individuals.
The legal action focuses on complaints that Nashville Booting delayed the removal of vehicle boots by over an hour, causing significant inconvenience for drivers. Class counsel Mark Hammervold, who has been leading the case for over four years, stated that the settlement will provide much-needed relief to the affected individuals. The final approval hearing is scheduled for October 25, with the deadline for opting out or objecting set for September 10.
With Nashville Booting LLC’s limited assets, the lawsuit specifically targets Liberty Mutual to fund the settlement, which aims to compensate the large number of impacted drivers. This class action settlement could bring resolution to thousands of Nashville drivers who faced delays in removing their car boots.
