Class Action Lawsuit

[Thigpen]

I can't believe someone hasn't started a class action lawsuit here. We have lost thousands of dollars in lost productivity not to mention the cost of the software itself with this piece of junk software.

I believe we are all waiting until after April 15th to do that. I for one would be happy to join a lawsuit.

Time will tell

How about the class action against the IRS from RTRPs, prometrics (who opened new tests centers), and other schools that were certified by the IRS to provide CPE credits? After the Love case, I believe many lawyers are salibating.

I was told by a lawyer, that class action attorneys make a ton of money off these type of lawsuits, but whoever joins the lawsuit only get a small fraction. My cellular company sent me a 23 cent check.

I don't think the purpose of a class action suit is to make money in this case. Instead, I think it would be design to send CCH and ATX a message that they better not mistreat their customers by giving them a lousy program. Plus it would be bad PR for both CCH and ATX to have to deal with a class action suit, and it might discourage potential customers from ordering their products. I'm not a lawyer, but I suspect that in order to bury this whole bad matter, CCH would quickly settle the suit, and move on from this crisis. And by the way, don't think for a minute that Jeff is the only person who had to resign because of this mess. I'm sure an internal review is going on right now at CCH and ATX - more heads will roll. I'm sure there is a lot of finger pointing going on right now.
