Comments: 
Defendant Ikea U.S. has opted-in to the Proposition 65 Consent Judgment in the matter of Brimer v. The Boelter Companies, Case No. CGC-05-440811.

* A non-contingent civil penalty is the civil penalty that must be paid pursuant to the settlement, regardless of future events or actions of the defendant. If a settlement includes a contingent penalty, the plaintiff should report the additional penalty amount when it becomes due.
