The court’s exact words
all individuals or entities that own a building in the United States on which the Shingles were installed between 1995 and 2010 that are eligible for relief under the Limited Warranty applicable to the Shingles installed on their building.
Quoted from the official notice. Read the notice for the full definition.
Our notes: "Shingles" means Horizon brand asphalt fiberglass roofing shingles made by CertainTeed until 2009; the organic Horizon line is not covered. To get money you must file a claim showing Qualifying Damage (cracking, fishmouthing, curling, degranulating or other premature deterioration caused by a manufacturing defect). The claim form says only the original owner or the first subsequent owner (transferee) of the property is covered by the Limited Warranty and can get relief. Claims that were already resolved by judgment or dismissal, settled with a signed release, paid by CertainTeed or an insurer (cashed check), or answered with replacement shingles are not eligible, though shingles not part of an earlier claim can still be claimed. Excluded from the class: people who opted out; builders, developers, contractors, installers, wholesalers or suppliers, except for shingles on their own home or commercial building; CertainTeed employees; and the judge and the judge's immediate family.
