Supreme Court says class action lawsuits can survive compensation offers
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court dealt a rare setback Wednesday to
companies trying to avoid potentially expensive class-action lawsuits.
The
justices ruled that offers of full compensation to the lead plaintiff
in such a case do not automatically end the legal challenge. The 6-3
decision was written by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
"An
unaccepted settlement offer, like other unaccepted contract offers,
creates no lasting right or obligation," Ginsburg said. "Once
unaccepted, the offer is off the table."
