   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  18-3633
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Springfield   
[PUBLISHED] [Kelly, Author, with Melloy and Stras, Circuit Judges] Civil case - Class actions. For the court's prior opinion in the matter remanding for further proceedings on plaintiffs' request for attorney's fees and costs, see McKeage v. TMBC, LLC, 847 F.3d 992 (8th Cir. 2017). Plaintiffs suffered a concrete injury when they were charged for law business by a non-attorney; the district court did not abuse its discretion in deciding to assess $2.39 million of plaintiffs' attorneys' fees against defendant rather than the common fund; the district court did not err in capping the award of costs at $700,000, but it did err in awarding the costs from the common fund rather than shifting them to defendant as the plaintiff class members were entitled by contract to have all litigation costs and expenses paid by defendant.
