And exactly which of the characteristics that you quoted would result in the case not being afforded class action status?

"In federal civil procedure law, which has also been accepted by approximately 35 states (through adoption of state civil procedure rules similar to the federal rules), the class action must have certain definite characteristics:
the class must be so large as to make individual suits impractical,
there must be legal or factual claims in common
the claims or defenses must be typical of the plaintiffs or defendants, and
the representative parties must adequately protect the interests of the class. These four requirements are often summarized as CANT: commonality, adequacy, numerosity, and typicality. In many cases, the party seeking certification must also show
that common issues between the class and the defendants will predominate the proceedings, as opposed to individual fact-specific conflicts between class members and the defendants and
that the class action, instead of individual litigation, is a superior vehicle for resolution of the disputes at hand."

That's right. None.

I'm tryin ta think but nuttin happens......Curly
