New Preliminary Order Approving Settlement Proposal

eye magnifying glass

Two heads are better than one and more players’ eyes reading this preliminary order are better than just a few lawyers. We’re hoping that the new order just filed on Tuesday will eliminate some of the one-sided language of the earlier proposed settlement draft (among other things, the original proposed settlement had language inserted to quash any future litigation by recipients of the settlement! Click HERE to view all of those documents in an earlier post). Also note the proposed time line for sending in comments and objections as well as the new payout schedule on Page 4. Things are now pushed out to November.

Please comment on anything that catches your attention. (Click on each page to enlarge for easier reading.)
