Mitsubishi agreed to a $33 million class action lawsuit settlement to resolve claims it worked with other companies to raise cathode ray tube (CRT) costs.

The CRT multidistrict class action lawsuit claims Mitsubishi conspired with other manufacturers, such as LG, Hitachi and Samsung, to raise and fix the price of CRTs. As a result of this alleged scheme, consumers were forced to pay a higher price for CRT televisions and monitors, the class action lawsuit contends.

Mitsubishi Electric is an electronic products manufacturer based in Japan. The company is in the same group as Mitsubishi Motors, an automotive manufacturer.

Mitsubishi hasn’t admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to pay $33 million to resolve the class action lawsuit against it. With older settlements, this brings the total CRT class action settlement amount to over $547 million.
