Gilardi.com/BarbriSettlement is where you can find additional information on the proposed Settlement pertaining to the lawsuit Stetson v. West Publishing Corp d/b/a BAR/BRI and Kaplan, Inc. Claim Forms, Notices, and other documents related to the Settlement can be obtained from this website.
The lawsuit relates to the alleged agreement between Kaplan and BAR/BRI to limit the competition for the full-service bar review courses in the market. According to the lawsuit, Kaplan agreed not to compete against BAR/BRI in giving full-service bar review courses to aspiring attorneys in the United States. In return, BAR/BRI agreed not to compete with Kaplan in the LSAT business. This, according to the lawsuit, is a violation of the federal antitrust laws as Kaplan gave BAR/BRI the authority to monopolize and take full control of the full-service bar review business industry. The lawsuit further alleges that the agreement between BAR/BRI and Kaplan has adversely affected competition in the selling and marketing of competitive bar review courses. Both Kaplan and BAR/BRI strongly deny that they have acted illegally.
A proposed Settlement has been entered into by both parties to avoid trial. The Defendants have agreed to pay a Settlement amount of $5, 285, 000 to Class Members and to give each Class Member a discount on the overall price of full-bar review courses.
May 30, 2011 was the last deadline given to Class Members to submit their Claim Forms. If you are searching for more information regarding this Settlement, visit www.gilardi.com/barbrisettlement or call the Claims Administrator at toll-free number 1-888-293-3337.
