A claims administration company has mailed class-action notices to about 179,000 current, retired and former service members who qualify to be part of a lawsuit against First Command Financial Planning.
The letters were mailed Jan. 30, said Trish Solorzano, claims administrator for Gilardi & Co., LLC.
The lawsuit is in the early stages, and there is no guarantee that members of the class will receive any money. But a California federal judge ruled in September that the case could go forward as a class action. The judge ordered First Command to provide a list of class members so that a personal notice could be sent to each investor. Gilardi & Co. is handling those notices.
