$3.4B Class Action Settlement (and the contest thereof)

The National Law Journal ran a story recently describing the recent appeal of the $3.4B settlement of the contested Native American trust litigation.  (Story here.)  I have not been following the details of this case closely enough to hold any opinion about the merits of this appeal.  But given the magnitude of the settlement and the stakes, I sincerely hope that someone in the ADR scholarly community will provide a detailed and careful analysis of this case and the underlying legal principles.
