Winn v. Commissioner

How courts have described this case

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

• “The question is whether section 216(b) authorizes ‘dual capacity’ suits, in which a plaintiff sues simultaneously as a group representative and as an individual. The answer is yes, for a number of reasons.”
• “We thus do not have before us the difficult question whether every member of a collective action, including the named plaintiff(s), must file a separate document entitled a Consent . . . .”
• “We leave for another day the question whether the statute requires that written consent to be in a separate document, or if instead it is enough if the complaint itself clearly indicates the intent of the plaintiff to proceed collectively.”
