Class Action & MDL Roundup 2024 Q4 – We Give You the Benefit of the Bargain

Welcome back to the Class Action & MDL Roundup! This edition covers notable class actions from the fourth quarter of 2024.

In this edition, an overdue audiobook suit is shelved, an old case gets new reps and new evidence, and face-swappers get SLAPPed. Plus, we have our usual coverage of lawsuits over drugs and pharmaceuticals, wage-and-hour rules, shareholder losses, and more. This edition’s video features several prominent class action circuit splits and the trends for ascertainability standards, fail-safe classes, and the application of Daubert at the class certification stage.

We wrap up the Roundup with a summary of class action settlements finalized in the fourth quarter.

Please see full publication below for more information.
