What this settlement covers
You received one or more Post-Stop Text Messages from Palm Beach Tan, Inc. and/or Archer Malmo, Inc. and are a Settlement Class Member.
The class covers people who received a marketing text message from Palm Beach Tan after asking the company to stop sending them. The case is Hudson v. Palm Beach Tan, Inc. and Archer Malmo, Inc., No. 1:23-cv-00486-WO-JEP, in the Middle District of North Carolina.
What you can claim
- A cash payment of up to $1,500 for each qualifying text message received after a stop request.
How payment works
The per message amount depends on how many valid claims are filed and on the size of the settlement fund, so $1,500 is a ceiling rather than a promise. The settlement administrator can be reached at P.O. Box 301172, Los Angeles, CA 90030-1172.
Filing this claim
The claim deadline passed on October 4, 2026, so the settlement administrator is no longer accepting claim forms. If you filed before the deadline, payment timing is set by the administrator, not by Sparrow.

Palm Beach Tan TCPA Settlement FAQs
Common questions about this class action settlement.
What counts as a qualifying text?
A marketing text message from Palm Beach Tan that arrived after you had asked the company to stop texting you. The settlement calls these Post-Stop Text Messages. The stop request is what matters: a text you received before you opted out is not part of this claim, and neither is a message that is not marketing.
How much does the settlement pay?
Up to $1,500 for each qualifying text. The actual amount depends on the number of valid claims and the money available in the fund, so a class member who received several post-stop messages can claim for each one but should not expect the full ceiling per message. Final amounts are calculated after the claims period ends.
Do I need to prove I received the texts?
The record does not list documentation as a condition of filing. Keeping screenshots of the texts and of your stop request is still sensible, since the administrator may follow up on a claim it cannot match.
Why does a text message create a legal claim?
The federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act restricts marketing messages sent to people who have opted out. When a company keeps texting after a stop request, that statute is what plaintiffs sue under, and it sets damages per message, which is why settlements of this kind pay by the text rather than by the person.
When is the deadline?
Claims must be submitted online at HudsonClass.com or postmarked by mail no later than October 4, 2026. The deadline is set by the court and the administrator cannot extend it, so a claim that arrives afterwards is not paid.
When will I get paid?
Payment timing is set by the settlement administrator, not Sparrow. Administrators usually pay after the court grants final approval and any appeals are resolved, which can take several months or longer after the claim deadline.
