2d Circuit breaches barrier to class certification

Weighing in on a subject that has divided the federal circuits-"whether a court may employ Rule 23(c)(4)(A) to certify a class as to a specific issue where the entire claim does not satisfy Rule 23(b)(3)'s predominance requirement"- the 2d Circuit has answered that question in the affirmative, clearing the path for lower courts to certify issue classes more frequently.

Final Days: Cheshire Murder Trial Wraps Up, Heads To Jury

On one of the final days of his murder trial, Steven Hayes was ready to fold, literally. Everyone else in the courtroom dutifully stood at the judge's knock on his door, and the marshal's cry, "All rise!" But Hayes, stumbling to his chair, began hunkering down to his seat.
