Goldenberg Heller & Antognoli, P.C., is proud to announce a $6,940,000 settlement in a nationwide class action lawsuit against Compass Group USA, Inc., known as Canteen. The settlement resolves claims that certain vending machines operated by Canteen across the country charged more than the displayed price when consumers used a credit, debit, or prepaid card—without any notice of the upcharge. Compass denies liability.

After years of complex litigation in multiple federal courts across the country, the parties reached a settlement that will return meaningful compensation to affected consumers. Class members who file valid and timely claims by November 17, 2025 can receive between $30 and $360, depending on the number of purchases made.

On July 9, 2025, the Court preliminarily approved the settlement and appointed as Class Counsel attorneys Kevin P. Green and Daniel S. Levy of Goldenberg Heller & Antognoli, P.C., Mike Arias and M. Anthony Jenkins of Arias Sanguinetti Wang and Team LLP, and Joel R. Rhine and Ruth A. Sheehan of Rhine Law Firm, P.C. A final fairness hearing is set for January 9, 2026.

What You Need to Know:

  • Total Settlement Fund: $6.94 million

 

  • Eligible Class Members: Anyone who made a purchase from a qualifying Canteen vending machine using a credit, debit, or prepaid card between 2014 and the date of preliminary approval

 

  • Per-Person Payment: Class members can receive between $30 and $360, depending on the number of purchases made

 

  • No Proof Required: Class members are not required to submit receipts or documentation with their claim

Titan CEO and headline sponsor Wipfli LLP are pleased to announce Mark C. Goldenberg, Managing Partner of Goldenberg Heller & Antognoli, P.C., as a 2025 St. Louis Titan 100. The Titan 100 program recognizes the Top 100 CEOs & C-level executives in St. Louis. They are the area’s most accomplished business leaders in their industry using criteria that includes demonstrating exceptional leadership, vision, and passion.  Collectively the 2025 St. Louis Titan 100 and their companies employ over 42,148 individuals and generate over $77 billion in annual revenues.

Mark Goldenberg is the founding and Managing Partner of Goldenberg Heller & Antognoli, P.C.  The firm was organized in 1989 when three separate law firms merged.  Goldenberg stated, “We are a leading commercial practice law firm in Southwestern Illinois and St. Louis Metropolitan Area. The firm has consistently prioritizes taking first class care of its clients, and our attorneys are supported by an incredible staff of extremely talented paraprofessionals who care about serving our clients with excellence.”

“It is humbling to have been named a Titan 100 honoree,” said Goldenberg, “and I look forward to meeting and networking with the other outstanding members in this group of creative and impactful professionals.  The opportunity to work together and make a bigger impact on our community is an honor and a privilege I will not take for granted.”

We proudly recognize the Titan 100 for their efforts to shape the future of the St. Louis business community. Their achievements create a profound impact that makes an extraordinary difference for their clients and employees across the nation,” says Jaime Zawmon, President of Titan CEO.

We appreciate the lasting impact each leader has made, and continues to make, in building organizations of significance both here in St. Louis and abroad. Your ingenuity and creativity have set you apart, and the honor of being seen as an industry Titan is richly deserved,” says Adam Herman Partner at Wipfli.

Class Action Settlements Approved for Employees Who Scanned Fingerprints at Illinois Trampoline Parks and Entertainment Centers

Payments of $718 and $598 to begin the week of October 7, 2024. Additional payment of $280 expected in December 2024.

A federal court has granted final approval of three class action settlements in a case involving fingerprint scans of employees at several trampoline and entertainment parks in Illinois. Distributions of some settlement payments commence this week, with an additional payment expected in December 2024.

The settlements mark the culmination of extensive litigation that began in 2019. The lawsuit alleged violations of Illinois’ Biometric Information Privacy Act (“BIPA”). Plaintiff, Madisyn Stauffer, on behalf of herself and others similarly situated, alleged that fingerprints were collected and stored without proper notice and consent in violation of BIPA by her employer, a Sky Zone trampoline park franchisee (Innovative Heights Fairview Heights, LLC), as well as by the franchisor (Sky Zone Franchise Group, LLC), and by the equipment/software vendor (Pathfinder Software, LLC).

After years of litigation, Plaintiff reached separate settlements with each defendant. The United States District Court for the Southern District of Illinois approved the settlements and appointed attorneys Kevin P. Green, Richard S. Cornfeld, Daniel S. Levy, and Thomas C. Horscroft of Goldenberg Heller & Antognoli, P.C., as Class Counsel.

Pursuant to the settlements, people in the Innovative Heights Class will receive approximately $718; people in the Sky Zone Class will receive approximately $598; people in the Pathfinder Class will receive approximately $280. Some people are in multiple classes, meaning they could receive money from each settlement, totaling approximately $1,596. Distribution of the Innovative Heights and Sky Zone payments began the week of October 7, 2024. Distribution of the Pathfinder payments is expected to begin in December 2024.

“Class actions are often criticized as being ineffective or frivolous, but this case demonstrates their powerful impact. The class members here will see significant compensation—amounts of over $1,500 for some—which can truly have an impact,” said Kevin Green of Goldenberg Heller & Antognoli, P.C., one of the attorneys appointed as Class Counsel. “The settlements are a testament to our team’s hard work over the last five years and underscore the vital role of giving people in Illinois control over their biometric data in today’s world of rapidly-changing technology.”

The case is Stauffer v. Innovative Heights Fairview Heights, LLC, et al., Case No. 3:20-cv-00046-MAB (S.D. Ill.).
