Correct, $295 million “total”, only $135 million is set aside for retailers and consumers, direct purchasers (site holders) get the rest..

Hi Nancy,

Unfortunately all you can do once you submit your claim is to sit back and wait for the lawyers to do their thing. The last day anyone can file a claim is May 19th, 2008, so there will be nothing at all done before that date other than collecting claims..

From there the accountants will have to run the numbers to see how much of the $135million each claimant is allowed to collect and then start writing checks.. I would be shocked if anyone sees a check before the end of the year..
