I have been awarded three ridiculous checks as settlement for things I wasn’t truly injured by. I am proud to say those checks; totaling $7.41 were not and never will be cashed. Cashing them would be condoning the practice, where consumers get the pittance, and the attorneys pushing the cases get the nice cars. Me? I’m hoping for a direct hit by a dominoes delivery driver.
