Also included is a chapter on Canadian class action jurisprudence. The compendium includes in-depth analyses of a number of critical areas, including:
- what kinds of class actions are permitted and how each state treats federal class action jurisprudence
- who can bring a class action
- enforcement of arbitration clauses
- challenging pleadings based on jurisdiction and venue
- certification procedure and criteria
- notice requirements
The compendium addresses special considerations with respect to consumer fraud class actions, pre- and post-certification communications with class members, and settlement and post-trial issues. It will also include a first-look analysis of this Supreme Court term's three major class action opinions: Wal-Mart v. Dukes, Smith v. Bayer, and AT&T Mobility v. Concepcion.
