How courts have described this case

- “Because class action litigation remains ‘an exception to the usual rule that litigation is conducted by and on behalf of the individual named parties only,’ the requirements of Rule 23 are heavily scrutinized and strictly enforced.”
- “When addressing class certification, the district court must undertake a ‘rigorous analysis’ to satisfy itself that the prerequisites of Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure are met.” (quoting Dukes, 564 U.S. at 350–51)
- adopting the Eleventh Circuit’s test for determining predominance
