Class action lawsuits are among the most prevalent and important forms of adjudication in the U.S. Class actions serve a critical function in enabling private parties to supplement public law enforcement. Yet the class action lawsuit can also be misused.
Class Action Fairness Act of 2005
In February 2005, Congress enacted the Class Action Fairness Act of 2005 (CAFA). CAFA alters class action practice in state and federal courts throughout the United States. The law: changes the rules for federal diversity jurisdiction and removal, enabling most large class cases to be filed in, or removed to, federal court; restricts the practice of coupon settlements; and transforms the procedures for settling class actions in federal courts. CAFA contains a host of new, often complex, rules. <see more>
