Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • finding defendant’s uniform refusal to pay claims to persons injured while occupants of leased vehicles constitutes the type of pattern or practice envisioned by rule 23(b)(2)
  • “For essentially the same reasons set forth in Abbott and Stromberg, the Court holds that section 1367 overruled Zahn”
  • The numerosity requirement “does not demand that joinder would be impossible, but rather that joinder would be extremely difficult or inconvenient.”
  • “To satisfy numerosity, plaintiffs must proffer some evidence of the number of members in the purported class, or at least a reasonable estimate of that number ... It is not necessary that the precise number of class members be known.”
