Attention
This is the official Settlement Website for the SUN COUNTRY MILITARY LEAVE 401(K) PROFIT SHARING PLAN CLASS LITIGATION, authorized by the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota.
Settlement Overview
A class action may affect your legal rights.
- The lawsuit alleges that Sun Country did not provide 401(k) contributions as required by the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (“USERRA”) to pilots who took military leave and the fiduciaries of the Plan violated their duties under the Employee Retirement Security Act (ERISA) regarding those contributions.
- The Court has determined that this lawsuit can proceed as a class action on behalf of current and former pilot employees of Sun Country who took military leave from their employment with Sun Country at any time from July 21, 2011, through December 31, 2025, and returned from that leave to be re-employed at Sun Country.
- The parties in this lawsuit have agreed to settle the case. Under the proposed Settlement, Sun Country has agreed to pay $1,550,000.00 (inclusive of attorney’s fees and costs). The settlement provides that in addition to the $1.55 million, Sun Country will also pay all costs necessary to administer the settlement and make certain disclosures about 401(k) contributions for employees who return from military leave to be re-employed at Sun Country.
- The Court has preliminarily approved the Settlement. The Settlement will not become final unless and until the Court issues final approval after a hearing, which is currently scheduled for November 17, 2026. Your legal rights may be affected.
