Shortly after moving to Tulsa, OK for law school, I received a check for $125.00 as part of a settlement by the AG of the state with the phone company. I am hazy as to the reason for the overcharge by the phone company, but it was decided that anyone living in the state by a certain date would get the money. Other class action have been lame and not got me anything meaningful.

How about we give the class action beneficiaries the opportunity to decline their “winnings” and makes public the amount the lawyers are getting. If 51% decline to get their 17 cents coupon, the judgment is invalidated and the plaintiffs lawyer get nothing.
