The Roaches Corner is at it again

[RichardSimon]

Michael - I think the Roaches could easily have your type of lawsuit dismissed. It is expensive to defend but 1000 bucks apiece from 5-10 guys won't last very long with the attorney you hire. Believe me, I speak from experience.
Nice idea, but impractical.

thanks for the post Richard,

what if this class action suit hit the press and it became 50 people x $1,000
who were collectors, or victims of their previous few hundred auctions?

what if it included the authenticators?

Also, when the number of people involved in the class action suit grows, don't lawyers usually get more inclined to take on the case?

I know very little about law, so I was wondering, on what grounds would they be able to have the lawsuit dismissed?

[Mr. Zipper]

If I am not mistaken, Class Action attorneys typically work on contingency. So, someone would have to sell a firm on the concept... the firm would then place advertisements looking for people to join the suit.

The problem is this -- Coaches Corner does not have the deep pockets of pharmaceutical company. Class Action law firms take RX cases because the potential payoff from years of work is tens of millions of dollars. What is any law firm going to get from Coaches Corner other than a bankrupcy filing?

I love to hear what an attorney would say about this situation.
