Unexpected Money is Always Good

Nobody knew this was coming.

I just opened a letter that was sent late last month to my office.  Snail mailed.  Apparently, we were entitled to funds that the Attorney General's office sought and recaptured resulting from litigation regarding an auto parts price-fixing scheme nationwide.

I'm interested to know more about it and what the total pot of cash came to, and whom it was that ran the scheme.  Specifically, I'd like to not buy from them in the future if we know who did it.  Regardless, I'm glad we are getting a cut.

I've now confirmed with staff that we have the cash in our account.  $33,473.92.

Unexpected Money is Always Good!
