Class Action Attorney's Fees Expert - March Column

I write a monthly column entitled "Expert's Corner" in Class Actions Attorney Fee Digest.  My March column analyzes the issue of whether, in a common fund case, the fee should be set as a percentage of the monies made available or of those actually claimed by the plaintiffs (or distributed via cy pres).   The column discusses, and agrees with the result reached by the Second Circuit in, Masters v. Wilhelmina Model Agency, Inc., 473 F.3d 423 (2d Cir. 2007).
