A trio of New York plaintiff attorneys, including one with connections to a law firm scandal, are backing an objector from Florida who is challenging the $25 million Trump University settlement.
Sherri Simpson, a personal bankruptcy lawyer in Fort Lauderdale, filed an objection on Monday claiming the settlement, reached just after Trump was elected, doesn’t allow an estimated 7,000 class members to opt out of the deal even though a 2015 class notice said that it would.
