Supreme Court to Address Class Action Certification for Uninjured Members Next Month Amid Circuit Split

The U.S. Supreme Court is preparing to address a pivotal issue regarding class action certification, particularly concerning uninjured class members. Briefing for the case will commence next month, as the Court gears up to resolve a circuit split on class injury requirements. This case could have significant implications for how class actions are certified, potentially leading to the exclusion of uninjured members from such actions. The defense bar is advocating for stricter standards, which plaintiff lawyers argue could establish an extreme precedent. Additionally, the Court is set to conference on several pending certiorari petitions, including cases such as Jimerson v. Lewis and Bowers v. OCIDA, among others.
