: How AppealingU.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit vacates settlement of De Beers diamonds antitrust class action
I argued this appeal on January 28, 2010 on behalf of class member-objector Susan M. Quinn, the only objector from whom the Third Circuit heard oral argument. Today, Third Circuit ruled that the settlement must be set aside based on the objections that Ms. Quinn has raised. The audio of the oral argument can be accessed via this link (37.7MB Windows Media audio file).
A Wikipedia entry titled "De Beers Diamonds Antitrust Litigation" provides a bit more background about the case.
Update: The Third Circuit's ruling is now available from that court's web site at this link.
