In Chicago, presiding over the settlement of a class action against Boeing, Cook County Circuit Judge Nancy Arnold has ordered a number of plaintiffs, all holders of small numbers of Boeing shares, to disclose how it was that they came to be clients of Milberg Weiss. The Chicago Tribune (reg) has details (via Peter Lattman, whose colleague Nathan Koppel also covers a "slugfest" in Newark between Milberg Weiss and rival Bernstein Litowitz over representation of shareholders in a suit against Merck; colorful comments on that one).
