| Abstract With the continuing expansion of international commerce, it is inevitable that a growing number of US class action lawsuits will involve classes of plaintiffs that include non-US litigants. These non-US class members, however, may also be able to bring their own individual lawsuits under the laws of their home countries against the same defendants for the same conduct, regardless of the outcome of the US class action. These ?second bite? lawsuits present new issues of fundamental fairness for defendants. As this new jurisprudence develops, US courts should keep in mind the basic procedural protections for defendants that have always been part of US class litigation. |
