Course Description
Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2022-2023. Courses of Study 2022-2023 is scheduled to publish mid-June.
This course is designed to provide students a working familiarity with the key principles and precedents that guide practitioners in their handling of class actions and similar forms of complex litigation, as well as a practical understanding of the life of a class action, from before a case is filed until all appeals have been exhausted. It will be presented in two parts. The first part will examine the evolving law of class actions, including an analysis of Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the Class Action Fairness Act, key Supreme Court decisions, and trends and developments in lower federal and selected state appellate courts. The second part will examine the life of a class action.
