Something weird is happening in a class action accusing Godiva Chocolatier Inc of falsely marketing its chocolate as being made exclusively in Belgium.

from Kroll with statistics that, in Preska's view, proved the success of the claims process. Nearly 900,000 purported purchasers had filed claims in response to a variety of notifications. Kroll had rejected about 318,000 of those claims, according to its declaration. But the administrator deemed nearly 510,000 claims to be valid, Preska said, putting Godiva on the hook to pay out about $7.5 million to class members.

Faruqi and the Wand firm said these post-settlement audits appeared to contravene the settlement agreement Preska incorporated in her order approving the deal.

Godiva said in the statement that it had requested a single post-settlement review of approved claims after the settlement administrator “identified a type of fraud.” If Kroll conducted additional post-settlement audits, Godiva said, they were at the administrator’s initiative, as permitted under the settlement agreement.
