AG Strange Announces Deadline of August 1
For Consumers to File Claims in DRAM Lawsuit
(MONTGOMERY) -Attorney General Luther Strange announces that
eligible consumers have an August 1 deadline to file claims in a settlement
involving electronic devices purchased between 1998 and 2002 that use
Dynamic Random Access Memory, or DRAM.
The national $310 million settlement was filed in U.S. District Court
for the Middle District of California and involves claims of price fixing
against 12 DRAM manufacturers. The minimum payment for smaller
purchases is expected to be $10 but the actual payment amount could be
more depending on the total number of claims filed.
DRAM is a high-density, low-cost per bit memory component that
stores digital information and provides high-speed retrieval of data.
DRAM is sold separately or pre-installed in electronic devices such as
computers, graphic cards, video game consoles, MP3 players, printers,
PDAs, DVD players and DVRs.
Claims may be filed online at www.DRAMclaims.com. More
information about the settlement is available by visiting
