MINUTE ENTRY for proceedings held before Judge Richard A Jones- Dep Clerk: Casey Condon; Pla Counsel: Matt Adams, Christopher Strawn; Def Counsel: J. Max Weintraub, Priscilla Chan; CR: Nancy Bauer; Hearing held on 9/20/2013. The court held a fairness hearing on class action settlement.

The court directed counsel to provide a revised notice to the class to include the stipulated motion for attorney's fees and the revised settlement agreement, including a link to a red-lined version of the settlement agreement. The court also directed counsel to file a joint proposed final order certifying the settlement class and approving class action settlement. Counsel requested a 30 day time frame to allow class members to respond to the revised class notice, and the court approved. The court scheduled a hearing for the approval of settlement for Monday, Nov. 4, 2013 at 9:00 a.m. However, if the court does not receive any objections, it will enter an order approving class settlement upon expiration of the 30 day time frame.
