I'm no fan of Lerach, but I'm still not sure what's wrong with compensating a lead plaintiff, unless they were misrepresenting in court that the lead plaintiff was just an average joe who got ripped off. The case has as much merit (or doesn't) regardless of whether the lead plaintiff is getting some extra compensation on the side.
