Class representative gets a small check.
Oversee.net has paid $1,500 to Stewart Resmer, the “class representative” for a lawsuit filed against Oversee.net in the wake of the halvarez shill bidding scandal.
Resmer originally filed suit against Oversee in U.S. District Court Central District of California. But the judge tossed the case out because the amount of money concerned was under $5 million.
As a result, Resmer’s lawyers refiled in The Superior Court of Los Angeles County. Oversee.net settled the case, agreeing to adopt a new shill bidding policy. The company also agreed to pay people that had overpaid as a result of the shill bidding, although it had already made that offer to customers ahead of the lawsuit.
Resmer, as class representative, got a check for $1,500. Resmer also said two non-profits may receive money as part of the settlement, including Internet Commerce Association.
