Experienced practitioners Brian Anderson and Andrew Trask analyze what decisions the plaintiff and defendant must make at each stage of a proposed class action, and the considerations that might drive different strategies at each stage. The authors explain the importance of every issue, the choices available to each side, and the factors each side should consider in choosing the best path to follow.
The 2016 Edition is updated to include analysis on the continued fight over predominance, the resurgence of issue certification, the "administrative burden" of ascertaining a class, the tightening of the adequacy requirement, further scrutiny of class settlements, and more.
