Are Sony PS3 owners getting a refund over the whole Other OS fiasco? That’s what the law firm of Mieselman, Denlea, Packman, Carton & Eberz P.C. says.

The law firm, representing plaintiff Anthony Ventura, filed a class action law suit against Sony over the removal of the PS3’s Other OS feature back in late April. We haven’t heard anything from Sony yet, but a report on the firm’s website says:

Because Sony failed to defend its intentions in court, the judge decided that Sony will have to pay every PS3 owner, who bought his PS3 before March 27, 2010, a refund of 50% of the price when purchased.

Sony will reportedly be giving out refunds to registered PS3 owners at E3. The firm says further details will also be posted soon.
