PORTLAND – The state’s 10 Habitat for Humanity affiliates will share more than $60,000 from the settlement of a class-action antitrust lawsuit.

Each affiliate will receive $6,300 to use in charitable work assisting low-income families in constructing affordable homes, Richard O’Meara, the Portland attorney who represented the plaintiffs in Maine, said in a press release Tuesday.

Efforts to reach local Habitat for Humanity chapters Tuesday were unsuccessful.

Maine was one of 13 states where price-fixing complaints were filed against the major manufacturers of high-pressure laminates, materials most frequently used in the production of cabinets, countertops and other household fixtures.

“We are very pleased to have the proceeds generated by this suit go to agencies that are so dedicated to making the future brighter for many families in Maine,” O’Meara said in the press release.
