This year’s program will kick off with a panel discussing the recent amendments to Rule 23 as well as the Procedural Guidance for Class Action Settlements issued by the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. Other topics include the use of virtual law firms in class action and mass tort litigation, developments in injury-in-fact and Article III standing, and developments in how courts are dealing with variations in injury and causation in addressing the predominance factor in Rule 23(b).
