INSIGHT: Supreme Court Prohibits Class-Action ‘Stacking’

Overview


David Hanselman, Chelsea Black and Steven Vaughn co-authored this bylined article on the Supreme Court of the United States’ decision in China Agritech Inc. v.

The decision “places a greater burden on class plaintiffs to find adequate class representatives at the beginning of the case,” the authors wrote.
