Class Action Update:  New Trends and Strategies in Class Litigation

Summary:  The Supreme Court has increasingly scrutinized class certification in a number of recent, landmark decisions, with three additional decisions expected this term.  The landscape continues to shift as district and appellate courts grappled with these landmark rulings and other class certification issues.  This presentation will focus on trends and strategies for class cases, from consolidation and removal to summary judgment and settlement.
