Salazar $3.4 billion trust fund settlement agreement. It was announced that barring a filing in the appeals process, plaintiffs in this historic class action lawsuit would start getting checks by the end of 2011. Four class members (of the estimated 350,000) did file appeals to the settlement. This is causing delays in the payments and bringing much agitation and frustration. Why did they file their appeals?
