    Yesterday, she signed an order approving what is effectively their punishment: a $15 million class-action settlement that could generate individual payments of as much as $5,000.

    This can't be, I was told that people in class action lawsuits only get coupons.

    Typically, lawyers get a third. So something is missing.
