Apparently interested parties can attempt to argue that the settlement should not be allowed for whatever reason. There is already indication that the Authors Guild is going to fight the settlement because of the logic that the collusion allowed BN and others to gain a foothold in the e-book world.
I could be off on those details, if I am, I am sure someone on the baord will happily correct me.
