  • “An inquiry into whether the defendant acted on grounds generally applicable to the 23(b)(2) class is often considered to be encompassed by the commonality requirement of Rule 23(a).”
  • “Certification under Rule 23(b)(2) is not always appropriate, however, when a class seeks monetary damages in addition to injunctive [or declaratory] relief; indeed, it is not permitted if such monetary claims predominate.”
  • “The commonality test is met when there is at least one issue, the resolution of which will affect all or a significant number of the putative class members.” (quoting Coleman v. Pension Benefit Guar. Corp., 196 F.R.D. 193, 198 (D.D.C. 2000) (internal quotation marks omitted))
