Lawyers in Disk Drive Class Action Get $13M
A federal judge awarded over $13 million to attorneys for direct-purchaser plaintiffs that sued Sony, Toshiba, Samsung, Panasonic and others for conspiring to fix the prices of optical disk drives. U.S. District Judge Richard Seeborg found the plaintiffs’ request for $11.37 million, or 30% of the $37.9 million settlement, for attorney’s fees was “fair and reasonable.”
