Comparable settlements $59.50M–$725M ▾
Tower Health v. Santoro (3d Cir., binding on E.D. Pa.) affirmed dismissal of nearly identical Meta Pixel/health-tracking privacy claims, while Doe v. Bayhealth and the Gunnar Optiks remands show confidentiality-based tracking claims can survive when duty/consent facts are pled. The unusual GLP-1 'personal injury' class definition layered onto a Privacy & Wiretap theory adds pleading uncertainty.
Comparable settlements $59.50M–$725M median $115M · n=10
Meta $725M · Google $425M · Apple $250M
Per member (realized): ~$29 median · $29–$29 (n=2)
Comparable verdict: Google LLC $425.70M · Google LLC $425.65M
Class (from complaint): Plaintiffs alleging personal injury and damages arising from use of Defendants' GLP-1 RA prescription products.
Key precedent: Patrick Santoro v. Tower Health (3rd Cir.) — controlling circuit authority dismissing tracking-tech health-data privacy claims, directly adverse to Lilly's E.D. Pa. venue.
Main risk: 3rd Circuit precedent (Tower Health) dismissing substantially similar health-tracking privacy claims on the merits, binding in E.D. Pa.
This defendant: Lilly already faces two other Privacy & Wiretap suits (Tipton, Waugh), suggesting repeat/parallel exposure on tracking-tech allegations.
Rough EV model (wide — class size is the big unknown, not a prediction): $2M–$100M
Class definition mismatches the Privacy & Wiretap label, small comparable sample, and no direct GLP-1-specific precedent — estimates are highly speculative. · grounded in 9 rulings, 10 settlements, 4 verdicts
