HP’s $6.5M Defective Laptop Settlement Close

HPAthough close to a resolution, a California judge has blocked a settlement to a long running class action against HP over defective displays. The displays were installed in Pavillion notebook computers that had a problem with defective backlights that were driven by faulty inverters from TDK and Ambit. HP had agreed an amount of $6.5 million for the settlement, but the judge has delayed the settlement to see if requests exceed available funds.
