Read on for answers to four essential questions in the class action against DermTech, including deadlines, notices, selling shares, and objecting or excluding yourself.​

WHAT ARE MY CHOICES IF I RECEIVE A NOTICE IN THE DERMTECH CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT?

​First, read the notice very carefully.  You have two choices.  First, you can do nothing and remain a member of the class represented by lead counsel.  Second, if you believe you have a large enough loss to justify it, you can opt out of the DermTech class action lawsuit and file your own separate lawsuit. Note, that if you opt out, you will not be able to participate in any settlement or recovery obtained in the class action against DermTech.

WHAT IS THE LEAD PLAINTIFF DEADLINE IN THE DERMTECH CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT?

When a securities class action is filed such as the DermTech class action lawsuit, the person who files the first complaint is required to publish a notice announcing the filing. Anyone who wants to be lead plaintiff on behalf of the class in the DermTech class action lawsuit must thereafter file a motion to be appointed as lead plaintiff(s) no later than 60 days after the notice was published. 

CAN I SELL MY STOCK AND STILL BE A MEMBER OF THE CLASS IN THE DERMTECH CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT?

​​Yes. There is no requirement for you to retain ownership of the stock after the class period has expired to participate in the class action against DermTech.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OBJECTING AND EXCLUDING MYSELF IN THE DERMTECH CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT?

Objecting is telling the Court you do not believe the settlement in the DermTech class action lawsuit, or some part of it, is fair or reasonable.  You can file an objection only if you stay in the Class and do not exclude yourself, and you may submit a Claim Form even if you object to the settlement.  On the other hand, requesting exclusion is explicitly telling the Court you do not want to be part of the Class or the Settlement in the class action against DermTech. If you exclude yourself, you cannot object to the Settlement because you no longer have standing as you are not a class member anymore. Similarly, you cannot submit a Claim Form. If you stay in the Class and object, but your objection is overruled, you will not be allowed a second opportunity to exclude yourself.
