New commentary on appeals of class action certification

An article titled Class Certification and Interlocutory Review:  Rule 23(f) in the Courts, by blog contributor Lori Irish Bauman, appears in the most recent issue of the Journal of Appellate Practice and Process. The article critiques the federal circuit courts' application of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(f), which provides for appellate review of class action certification decisions.  It appears in Volume 9, Issue 1 of the Journal, published last week. 

The same issue of the Journal of Appellate Practice and Process includes a study of best practices in 13 state appellate courts, including the Oregon Court of Appeals.

The table of contents for the current issue appears here.  Journal articles are available through Lexis and Westlaw.
