Ballard Spahr Alert: CA Supreme Court: Class Certification Doesn't Require Evidence That Class Members Can Be Ascertained
In a unanimous decision that will make it easier for plaintiffs in California state courts to obtain class certification, the California Supreme Court ruled that the ascertainability requirement for certification of class actions filed under the State’s class action rule or its Consumer Legal Remedies Act (CLRA) does not incorporate a requirement for the representative plaintiff to supply evidence showing how class members would be individually identified. In Noel v. Thrifty Payless, Inc., the plaintiff filed a putative class action in state court on behalf of retail purchasers of an inflatable outdoor pool sold in packaging that allegedly misled buyers about the pool’s size. In addition to asserting a CLRA claim, the plaintiff alleged claims under California's Unfair Competition Law and the state’s false advertising law.
