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.
