>One group of plaintiffs’ lawyers struck a settlement with CPK. The monetary value of the class’s claims were (at most) around $950,000, yet the attorneys sought $800,000 in fees. The district court approved the settlement.

From the case summary. The award of attorneys' fees is the part that got sent back down for the trial court to look at again.
