Happy Monday, Daily Money readers. Jayme Deerwester  back with you on the 78th anniversary of the D-Day invasions. It's been 30-odd years since my high school trip to Europe and the silver lining to being an unpopular nerd back then was that I was able to walk the Normandy beaches with my French teacher's dad, who was a D-Day vet. I don't remember much else about that trip but that memory will stay with me forever.  It also helped me better understand my own grandfather, who was D-Day Plus 2 but never spoke of his experience. 

Going on a long vacation? Pause your internet service and save money

When you're going on an extended trip, there's no reason to pay for internet service back home. You might think canceling and reactivating is the way to go. That's a bad idea.  Canceling your service is frustrating – all those questions about why you're canceling!  Plus, there are fees to stop and restart your service later.

The good news is many internet search providers and cable/satellite providers allow you to pause your service, which is much more convenient. We've rounded up all the major ISPs' policies on pausing service.

We also have tips on making sure you have a strong connection wherever you're going, because we know the tradeoff for being able to take an extended vacation is working remotely.

Hertz false arrest lawsuit update: 100 cases allowed to proceed in state court

Nearly 100 customers accusing Hertz of wrongful theft arrests for cars they rented can now pursue their cases outside of bankruptcy court

On Thursday, Delaware bankruptcy judge Mary Walrath ruled in favor of the claimants, allowing them to file lawsuits in state courts around the country.

After listening intently to arguments from both sides, Walrath granted relief to 89 customers with late claims.

She deemed the customers as known creditors who Hertz failed to properly notify about its bankruptcy filing, Chapter 11 plan and deadline for submitting proofs of claim for their alleged damages.

In state court, the dozens of claims can get resolved more quickly, likely with fairer results, through jury trials, explained Francis Malofiy, the lead attorney for the claimants based in Pennsylvania.

"There's a real harm in justice being delayed," he said. "Justice delayed is justice denied." 

🎧 Mood music 🎧 

Today's lyric comes from "The Shores of Normandy," written and performed by British D-Day veteran Jim Radford. The song was a hit on the British pop charts in 2019, the 75th anniversary of the invasions that began turning the tide of World War II in Europe.

"There was not one man in all our crew who knew what lay in store. For we had waited for that day through five long years of war.  We knew that many would not return but all our hearts were true.  For we were bound for Normandy, where we had a job to do."
