        "Class Certification Evidence—What Are the Standards of Admissibility and Probative Value Among the Circuits?" presented by Kevin P. Daly, presented by Strafford (3/2/2023)

        The panel of class action attorneys covered what evidence courts in different circuits can, will, or may consider when ruling on a motion to certify a class under Federal Rule 23. The panel also reviewed the existing split among the circuits regarding whether courts should entertain only admissible evidence or whether they may consider evidence that would be excluded at trial, the differing rationales in the circuits, and then offer best practices and strategies for opposing or narrowing class certification both in jurisdictions that have not yet taken a side and those that have.

        "Class Certification Evidence: Standards of Admissibility and Probative Value Among the Circuits: Strategies for Opposing or Narrowing Class Certification and Preserving Objections," presented by Kevin P. Daly, as a Strafford CLE webinar (2/17/2022)

        Class certification typically increases a putative class' bargaining power in settlement negotiations, thus elevating the importance of how defendants choose to handle evidence both pre- and post-certification. Yet, how a particular court will analyze class certification and what evidence may be admitted in class certification proceedings is not uniform among the federal circuits or district courts, and the split could be getting worse. Additionally, there are numerous splits among the circuits on what is required to prove the elements for class certification.

        The panel of class action attorneys discussed the standards of admissibility of evidence at class certification and best strategies for leveraging ambiguities. The course, which featured live, interactive Q&A, focused on what evidence a court may consider when ruling on a plaintiff's motion to certify a class action. In particular, panelists discussed whether such courts are limited to considering only admissible evidence or whether, when determining class certification, the court may consider evidence that it would exclude at trial. The panel also reviewed the existing split among the circuits, discussed the various rationales, and offered best practices and strategies for opposing or narrowing class certification both in jurisdictions that have not yet taken a side and those that have.
