D.C. Circuit Rejects Freestanding Rule Against 'Fail-Safe' Classes
Mayer Brown LLP via Lexology; registration required 
June 1, 2023 "Instead of what it described as an 'extra-textual' limitation on class certification, the D.C. Circuit held that the existing requirements of Rule 23 (and a district court's discretion to alter proposed class definitions) should be used to prevent certification of fail-safe classes.... [T]he D.C. Circuit was faced with an ERISA class action, in which the plaintiff sought to certify a proposed class of current or former employees of the defendant (or their beneficiaries) who had 'been denied vested rights' to retirement benefits." [In re White, No. 22-8001 (D.C. Cir. Apr. 4, 2023)] |
