United States Ninth Circuit
Stockwell v. City and County of San Francisco, 12-15070
The district court's denial of a request for certification of a class composed of certain San Francisco police officers is reversed and remanded, where the district court's determination of lack of commonality was an abuse of discretion, as it disregarded the existence of common questions of law and fact and impermissibly addressed the merits of the class's claims.
