A proposed settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit titled, Jason Wilsterman v. Delphinus Engineering, Inc., Case No. 24-cv-1810, filed on April 30, 2024, in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania (the “Litigation”). The litigation is a result of alleged unauthorized access to the Defendant’s computer systems in October 2023 (the “Data Incident”) in which the private information of Settlement Class Members may have been compromised. The Defendant is Delphinus Engineering, Inc.
If you received a Notice of Class Action Settlement, you have been identified by Delphinus as someone whose private information may have been impacted by the Data Incident, and you are a Settlement Class Member. You may opt-out or be excluded from the Settlement Class by following the instructions in the Notice.
Under the settlement, Delphinus has agreed to pay $350,000.00 into a Settlement Fund to pay for all costs of the settlement, including: (1) Notice and Administrative Expenses; (2) the Fee Award and Expenses, as approved and awarded by the Court; (3) documented Out-of-Pocket Losses; (4) Cash Fund Payments to Settlement Class Members; and (5) transfer the Remainder Funds to a charitable organization to the extent any funds exist following the administration of payments.
Your legal rights will be affected whether you act or do not act. You should read the entire Notice carefully.
Your Legal Rights and Options in this Settlement | |
Submit a Claim Form | Submitting a Claim Form is the only way that you can receive Compensation for Out-of-Pocket Losses and/or a Cash Fund Payment.

If you exclude yourself, you will give up the right to receive any settlement benefits from this settlement. |
Object to or Comment on the Settlement | You may write to the Court explaining why you do not agree with the settlement. You must not exclude yourself from the settlement if you wish to object. The deadline to object is March 3, 2026. |
Go to the Final Approval Hearing | You may attend the Final Approval Hearing where the Court may hear arguments concerning approval of the settlement.

These rights and options—and the deadlines to exercise them—are explained in the Notice and FAQs.
The Court in charge of this case still has to decide whether to approve the settlement. No Settlement Benefits or payments will be provided unless the Court approves the settlement, and it becomes final.
