Greene v. Green Toys

Children's Toys & Safety · Filed 2026-03-06 · U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California · Docket 2:26-cv-37039

What the company is alleged to have done

The complaint alleges Green Toys sold the affected products despite internal testing data showing safety risks to children. The Consumer Product Safety Commission separately issued a recall covering the same products.

The settlement covers two distinct groups: parents who purchased the product but did not experience an injury (eligible for a refund), and parents whose children suffered a documented injury caused by the defect (eligible for additional compensation).

Who qualifies as a class member

You are likely an eligible class member if all of the following apply:

• You purchased one of the affected Green Toys children's products in the United States during the class period.
• You are the parent, legal guardian, or caregiver of the child for whom the product was purchased.
• You either (a) still have the product or its model number, or (b) have documentation of the original purchase.
• If claiming injury compensation, you have medical records documenting the injury.

If you fit all of the criteria above, you almost certainly have a valid claim. If you only fit some of them — for example, you used the product in a different timeframe, or you don’t have proof of purchase — you may still qualify under the settlement’s “self-attestation” rules. The form on this page can route you to a participating attorney who will confirm your eligibility for free.

How much can I receive?

Class members can claim a full refund of the purchase price for each unit purchased, regardless of injury. Class members whose child suffered a documented injury can claim additional compensation for medical expenses, missed work, and pain and suffering.

Total settlement value: $340M. Estimated number of class members: 320,000. Most class members will receive their payout by check or electronic transfer within four to nine months after the court grants final approval.

How to file your claim (step-by-step)

1. Locate the recall notice you received, or look up your product's model number on the administrator's site.
2. Gather the original receipt or any record of purchase (optional).
3. Submit the claim form on behalf of your child using their full name and date of birth.
4. If claiming injury compensation, upload medical records.
5. Choose your preferred payment method.

Why this matters

Children's-product class actions create real accountability for manufacturers that cut corners on safety. Recovery rates in these cases are unusually high because the safety stakes attract regulatory and media attention.
