"I do recognize that on any one -- for any one claimant the financial stakes may not be sufficient to bring an action like this, although a lot has been said by folks on both sides of the table and both sides of the political spectrum. It is a mechanism by which certain issues get resolved that would never get resolved otherwise because it just isn't financially prudent for somebody to take on the impressive array of defense counsel and defense insurers and defendants to bring these matters to a conclusion."
"With respect to the attorney fees, I find that those are also fair and reasonable...I recognize that it is a huge amount of money but I really do consider very favorably the fact that this was a risky undertaking to begin with, one that I could easily understand why a lot of attorneys would have passed on the case."
"...I think that Plaintiff's counsel here has taken on a difficult challenge and they were, I think, very ably -- the claims were very ably defended, and I think all of the difficulties and all of the challenges described by Mr. Pels are very accurately stated."
"I want to say again that it has been an interesting experience for me. This is the first class action that I have been involved with I guess on either side of the bench, and I appreciate having the opportunity to work with fine counsel."
"It is, unfortunately, not every day that you get good lawyers in the courtroom and this is a really very impressive collection and I appreciate all of your efforts. Thank you very much counsel". Statements made by the Judge for Circuit Court for Anne Arundel County in Approving Mobile Home Class Action Settlement.
