On a very general level, class action lawsuits involve a band of people in some capacity: A collective class, formed together over the issue of a broken product, suing a defendant, or a group of defendants, multiple negligent companies, for instance, being sued by an individual. While more class action lawsuits are filed for product liability claims, other case types also conclude in court, too, including shareholders suing for fraud, employees for discrimination, and residents over environmental disasters.
Each case, which may be filed in either state or federal court, class action lawsuits has its benefits. Because a limited number of witnesses overlap, the trial process inevitably moves along faster, while the cost of litigation tends to be lower than for individual plaintiffs filing alone.
Additionally, these types of cases do tend to have drawbacks. Before the lawsuit even progresses, the prosecuting group must be defined as a class. Federal courts, as well, may dismiss class action lawsuits if the defendants are state governments or officials or if the plaintiffs number less than {one hundred,100.
