Program Description:
This session will explain what plaintiffs must demonstrate and what defendants must challenge at the class certification stage—and the role of the financial litigation services expert witness in those demonstrations—in order to prove or disprove membership in a proposed class. This session will discuss the role of the financial litigation consultant regarding the "ascertainable" and "administratively feasible" requirements. In summary, these concepts require an objective class definition and an “administratively feasible” way to determine who satisfies that definition.
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- List the requirements for class certification
- Identify recent court decisions impacting expert witnesses in the certification stage of class action litigation
- Indicate the unique steps in providing commercial litigation services for class actions
- Recognize how to fulfill the trial court’s obligation to undertake a “rigorous analysis” at the class certification stage
