What Is A Class Action Lawsuit?

A class action lawsuit is a type of representative lawsuit in which the claims and rights of many people are decided in a single case.   Specific plaintiffs (interchangeably called “class plaintiffs,” “class representatives” “class reps” or  “named plaintiffs”) are named in the class action lawsuit to assert the claims of the unamed or absent members of the class so that everyone with the same complaint or injury doesn’t have to file their own separate lawsuit.
