Help with extra spacing between bulleted lines

I cant seem to get rid of this extra spacing between the second and third bullet of the middle group.

I've checked the spacing and every paragraph option I can find and everything looks the same as the other lines.

If I add another bullet from the line above the spacing is correct, but there always remains extra spacing prior to the last line.

Is there a setting I'm missing?

Or - apart of supplying actual file to see - here's quick'n'dirty method to get rid of unwanted (and hard to find) formatting:

1. Double click Eyedropper tool, ensure all options are checked.

2. Select line with 'wrong' formatting (whole paragraph, incl. end of para mark!), switch to Eyedropper tool, copy attributes from a 'good' line.

In most cases you're able to 'fix' inconsistency without even knowing what was the culprit. Worth to try, at least after checking Para and Char styles for overrides.

Can you put that page (or file) up on dropbox so that we can take a look? You can post the link in the reply, or right click my name, click Message and send it to me directly.

Thanks! I had tried the eyedropper before, but apparently I was missing the end para mark!

Aha! That's a habit that is worth to gain: always select the whole paragraph, including non-printing marks, such as end-of-paragraph mark (aka pilcrow). In your case, most likely, it had a different (bigger) leading applied, and in your Preferences > Type section you have Apply Leading to Entire Paragraphs unchecked. That's what all the buzz was about
