“If the proposed settlement appears to be the product of serious, informed, non-collusive negotiations, has no obvious deficiencies, does not improperly grant preferential treatment to class representatives or segments of the class, and falls within the range of possible approval, then the court should direct that the notice be given to the class members of a formal fairness hearing.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“To determine whether a settlement falls within the range of possible approval, a court must focus on substantive fairness and adequacy, and "consider plaintiffs' expected recovery balanced against the value of the settlement offer.”
