October 29, 2014 Opinion or Order Filing 33 ORDER: I have today received a most disturbing letter (Docket #32) from an attorney who represents a member of the plaintiff class. He advises me that none of the members of the class has received any money from the settlement, although JPMC put the $218 million in escrow many months ago. I am greatly distressed to learn this. I hereby direct Lead Counsel for the plaintiff class to file a written report, by 5 PM on Friday, October 31, 2014, explaining the status of this matter and advising the court why no payments have yet been made. If, as represented by the attorney who wrote me the letter, there are "administrative issues," I want to know exactly what they are. If the hold-up has something to do with the Bankruptcy Court, I want to know what the issue is. And above all, I want to know when the class members will be receiving payment.
