Judge Says No to BAR/BRI Settlement

Greetings from oppressively sunny and hot Las Vegas!  I'm attending the CALI conference at UNLV Law, learning all about new and innovative ways to use technology in legal education.

I wasn't surprised to hear via the WSJ Law Blog that a federal judge has refused to approve the BAR/BRI settlement, apparently because of concerns about incentives that were offered to the lead plaintiffs in the litigation.  The National Law Journal has a more extensive story if you would like additional details.  A final settlement hearing is scheduled for July 9.
