St. Louis Workhouse $4M Settlement (Cody v. St. Louis)
Who Is Eligible?
You may be eligible to file a claim if you:
- You were held at the St. Louis Medium Security Institution (the Workhouse) at any point between November 2012 and June 2022
- You were detained there for 3 or more consecutive days during that time period
- You are a current or former detainee — this settlement covers people who were held at the facility, not staff or visitors
- You (or a legal representative filing on behalf of a deceased or incapacitated person) submit a valid claim by the June 29, 2026 deadline
How Much Can You Get?
The total settlement fund is $4 million, which will be distributed among eligible claimants. The exact amount each person receives will depend on how many valid claims are submitted — the more people who file, the smaller each individual share may be. Specific per-person payout amounts have not been publicly detailed yet, so the final payment will be determined after the claims period closes. Generally in settlements like this, the length of time someone was detained can factor into how payments are calculated. If you believe you qualify, it's worth filing a claim before the June 29, 2026 deadline to secure your place in the distribution.How to File Your Claim
