Statement of Attorneys’ Fees and Costs in the Class Action Sample Clauses

Statement of Attorneys’ Fees and Costs in the Class Action. Co-Lead Class Counsel, and the firms assisting them, have devoted many hours to bringing this case and pursuing it for the past five-and-a-half years. During that time, they also have advanced costs for expert consulting services, substantial investigation, intensive document analysis, and other costs necessary to pursue the case. Co-Lead Class Counsel’s motion for class certification was granted by the Court on March 31, 2017. Co-Lead Class Counsel successfully defended JPMorgan’s petition for an immediate appeal of the Class Certification Order, which the Second Circuit denied. Co-Lead Class Counsel engaged in substantial investigation and analysis of the law and facts concerning the Action in opposing JPMorgan’s motion for summary judgment. This work resulted in the monetary benefits provided in the Settlement. Co-Lead Class Counsel took the risk of litigation and have not been paid for any of their time or reimbursed for any of the costs that they have incurred during the more than five years that the Action has been pending before the Court. Co-Lead Class Counsel also have agreed to undertake the additional risk of paying some of the administrative costs of the settlement process if the Settlement is not approved. Co-Lead Class Counsel will apply to the Court for payment of attorneys’ fees and costs for their work in the case. Co-Lead Class Counsel will request fees not to exceed one-third of the $75,000,000 Settlement Amount and will request reimbursement of litigation costs not to exceed $1,750,000. Any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded by the Court to Co-Lead Class Counsel will be paid from the Qualified Settlement Fund. Co-Lead Class Counsel will not seek to receive any interest earned by the Qualified Settlement Fund, which will be added to the Net Settlement Amount. As is customary in class action cases in which the Class Representatives have spent time and effort on the litigation, Co-Lead Class Counsel also will ask the Court to approve Service Award payments, not to exceed $20,000, for each of the 12 Class Representatives who took on the risk of litigation, provided discovery, and committed to spend the time necessary to bring the case to conclusion. Their activities also included assisting in the factual development of the Action.
