Description

The Harry and Janette Weinberg Foundation appeal the district courts order approving the settlement of a class action suit pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 23(e), in which the Foundation was an unnamed class member. The Weinberg Foundation objects to the settlement between the plaintiff class, represented by Croyden Associates, and Alleco, Inc. and Service America Corporation, the defendants. The Weinberg Foundation raises a number of arguments regarding justiciability, subject matter jurisdiction, Croyden Associates standing to sue, a violation of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, the adequacy of class representation, the certification of a non-opt-out class, adequacy of notice, and the fairness, reasonableness, and adequacy of the settlement. We need not address these arguments because we dismiss the Foundations appeal for lack of standing.
