If you paid a speeding ticket issued by Girard's traffic camera and took part in the class action lawsuit, you may soon be getting a check.

Atty. Jim Denney of Girard, who filed the class action lawsuit, said those who paid tickets will receive a check for 15 percent of what they paid, which in most cases is about $12.

Girard Mayor Jim Melfi said he received his check a few days ago. The mayor's daughter was issued a ticket in 2005, he said.

Girard quit using the camera in 2006 after a Trumbull County Common Pleas judge ruled its use was unconstitutional.
