SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON KING COUNTY
NOTICE OF CLASS ACTION This notice may affect your rights or the rights of a child for whom you care or cared. Please read it carefully. The Court authorized this notice. It is not a solicitation. TO:
All Seattle Children’s Hospital child patients who received preventative treatment for
aspergillus exposure at Seattle Children’s Hospital at 4800 Sand Point Way NE between December 2, 2016 and November 2019 and who suffered special and/or general damages as a result of their prophylaxis treatment (the “Class”), and to their parents or guardians. This Notice (1) explains a lawsuit that has been brought on behalf of the Class, (2) describes what parents of child class members must do if they wish to participate in this lawsuit on their own behalf (rather than on behalf of their children), and (3) explains what Class members and their parents must do if they wish to pursue claims for damages. You are not being sued. FORMS ARE PROVIDED at the end of this Notice for these purposes. No other action is required at this time. 1.
Why Did I Receive This Notice? The Court has directed this notice to advise class members of a pending class action on their behalf.
The purpose of this notice is to inform you that your rights (or the rights of a child for whom you care or cared) may be affected by a class action lawsuit known as Wills, et al. v. Seattle Children’s Hospital, No. 19-2-31648-9 SEA, filed in King County Superior Court and assigned to the Honorable Jim Rogers (the “Lawsuit”). You are receiving this notice because Seattle Children’s has identified you, your child, or a child for whom you are legally responsible, as an individual who may be part of the Class.
