Plaintiffs’ Claims Raise Numerous Complex Litigation Issues Sample Clauses

Plaintiffs’ Claims Raise Numerous Complex Litigation Issues. 48. The first two Iridium factors—(1) the balance between the litigation’s likelihood of success and the settlement’s benefits; and (2) the likelihood of complex and protracted litigation—are easily met. With respect to the first factor, the complex and protracted nature of continued litigation overwhelmingly favors the proposed global resolution. Considering the novel and complex nature of the issues, there is no guarantee as to what the result of additional litigation would be. Moreover, the litigation has already been ongoing for five years and could very easily continue for another five. If the Settlement is not approved, the resulting litigation expenses will deplete the GUC Trust’s resources and reduce the ultimate recovery for the GUC Trust’s beneficiaries. Conversely, the benefits of near-term, certain resolution are clear. Settlement allows the GUC Trust to avoid additional costs, expedite distributions, and secure a guaranteed result that is favorable to the GUC Trust’s beneficiaries.
