This survey contains a succinct analysis of class action law in each of the fifty states. It is a valuable tool for both in-house and outside counsel who confront the prospect of litigating class actions in state forums with which they may have little or no experience and having to make informed recommendations on removal. The summaries are prepared by litigators from each of the respective states and address changes in rules and statutes as well as significant case law. Available as a PDF download, these summaries are useful in understanding state court rules essential to practitioners and parties alike. The information is current through July 31, 2008.
