Today, in a 6-5 decision the 9th Circuit has affirmed the lower court's certification of a 1.5 million person class in a Title VII sex discrimination claim again Wal-Mart. See the article at Yahoo Finance,
Court: Wal-Mart to face massive class action suit.
The decision
itself checks in at 137 pages, which includes what the Yahoo Finance article calls a "blistering dissent." I have not read it yet, but I will hopefully get around to it before Round 3, which could be when the application for certiorari is filed, although there may be some more interim skirmishing in the 9th Circuit.
