On October 18th, 2019, Lieff Cabraser partner Mark P. Chalos will participate in a panel discussion at the American Bar Association’s 23rd Annual National Institute on Class Actions in Nashville. The discussion is entitled: “How Big is Your Audience? Crescendos and Diminuendos in the Class-Action World.”
Chalos and the other panelists will discuss specific cases that illustrate the way the Supreme Court is dramatically shaping class-action law in the wake of heightened certification standards, class action bans, and no-injury jurisprudence. Panelists will review what these restrictions mean to the collective viability of class-action lawyers, specifically facing the questions of whether class actions will continue to fill stadiums, be relegated to smaller venues, or could they simply fade out?
