China Agritech, Inc. v. Resh

(United States Supreme Court) - Holding that a putative class member may not, in lieu of promptly joining an existing suit or promptly filing an individual claim, commence a class action anew beyond the time allowed by the applicable statute of limitations and reversing and remanding the Ninth Circuit's reversal of a District Court dismissal of an untimely class complaint.

True Health Chiropractic Inc. v. McKesson Corp.

(United States Ninth Circuit) - Reversed the denial of class certification in an action where a healthcare company was accused of unlawfully sending unsolicited faxed advertisements in violation of the U.S. Telephone Consumer Protection Act. The district court denied the motion for class certification on the ground that individual issues would predominate over issues common to the putative class. On an interlocutory appeal, the Ninth Circuit disagreed and remanded for further proceedings.

Franchise Tax Bd. Limited Liability Corp. Tax Refund Cases

(California Court of Appeal) - Reversed the denial of class certification in a case involving tax refund claims filed by limited liability companies (LLCs) which sought refunds of a levy they had paid pursuant to a California tax statute that was later determined to be unconstitutional. When the district court denied the LLCs' motion for class certification on multiple grounds including predominance and superiority, they appealed. Agreeing with the LLCs that this case was suitable for treatment on a classwide basis, the First Appellate District reversed and remanded for certification of a class or classes consistent with its opinion.

King v. Great American Chicken Corp., Inc.

(United States Ninth Circuit) - Held that the district court erred in remanding a class action to state court under the Class Action Fairness Act's local-controversy exception. The plaintiff argued that her wage-hour class action against a fast-food chain belonged in state court because more than two-thirds of the putative class members were California citizens. Unconvinced, the Ninth Circuit reversed and remanded for additional discovery regarding how many former employees had moved to other states, among other things.

Auto Driveaway Franchise Systems, LLC v. Corbett

(United States Seventh Circuit) - Affirmed. A franchise's preliminary injunction against a franchisee operating a competing company was upheld in a lawsuit over the franchisee's alleged violation of franchise agreements. The district court should have included more detail regarding the likelihood of success on the merits by the movant, but there was enough to establish that the order wasn't an abuse of discretion.

Insight Digital Special: Capitol Chat On Rent Control And A Move To Unionize Childcare Workers

A new rent control ballot measure would permit local governments establish rent control on buildings over 15 years old and allow landlords to raise rents by no more than 15 percent every three years. This new initiative mirrors one that failed in 2018.

The move to unionize child care workers: there was a rally yesterday at the Capitol where workers delivered over 8,000 union cards. This number of cards qualifies workers to hold an election to form a union. Their union would allow collective bargaining with the state for health care benefits and funding for training, as well as the ability to negotiate wages.

Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters, Inc. v. Azar

(United States Fourth Circuit) - Affirmed an order enjoining the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services from enforcing a Medicaid reimbursement policy that was set forth in a Frequently Asked Questions document. The plaintiff, a hospital, contended that the reimbursement policy was not validly promulgated because there was no formal rulemaking as required by the Administrative Procedure Act. Agreeing, the Fourth Circuit held that the FAQ document was insufficient and that notice-and-comment rulemaking was necessary.

US v. Chittenden

(United States Fourth Circuit) - Vacated forfeiture orders in a case involving a fraudulent mortgage scheme. The defendant argued that she should not have been ordered to forfeit over $1 million when she had received only $230,000 in proceeds from the criminal scheme. On remand from the Supreme Court, the Fourth Circuit concluded that it was necessary to vacate and remand the forfeiture orders on the ground that joint and several forfeiture liability was precluded by the Supreme Court's recent decision in Honeycutt v. US, 137 S. Ct. 1626 (2017).

(United States Second Circuit) - Affirmed the dismissal of a liquor distributor's claim under the RICO statute against other liquor distributors. The New York metropolitan area's exclusive distributor for many leading brands of liquor brought this suit alleging that two of Maryland's largest liquor distributors were smuggling liquor into New York, cutting into its sales. The district court dismissed the case because the smuggling operation, as alleged, did not directly cause the plaintiff to lose sales, and therefore the plaintiff did not adequately allege proximate cause under RICO. Agreeing, the Second Circuit affirmed.
