A federal judge has approved an accord worth more than $5 million—including $725,000 in fees—that settles claims against a self-storage facility that allegedly sold customers' items before they had a chance to retrieve them.
In the action against Extra Space Storage, U.S. Magistrate Judge Cathy L. Waldor of the District of New Jersey on July 13 signed off on the plaintiffs' motion for final approval of the settlement.
The class consists of nearly 155,000 Extra Space customers whose items allegedly were prematurely sold at auction. According to Waldor's opinion, Extra Space has agreed to deposit roughly $5.08 million into a common fund.
