District Court of Appeal of Florida
Black Diamond v. Haines, 5D05-1385
An order certifying a class of plaintiffs who brought suit for damages based on purported misrepresentations that induced them to purchase golf course memberships is reversed as class certification is not appropriate where Appellees failed to satisfy the "commonality" and "superiority" requirements for class certification.
