President Barack Obama is turning his attention to energy and immigration legislation Tuesday. He'll meet with a bipartisan group of senators to discuss passing comprehensive energy and climate legislation this year. The president also will meet with members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus to discuss the possibility of an overhaul of federal immigration laws — an iffy proposition in this election year. Obama also will have a working lunch with King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia.

Class action or a representative action is a form of lawsuit in which a large group of people collectively bring a claim to court and/or in which a class of defendants is being sued. This form of collective lawsuit originated in the United States and is still predominantly a U.S. phenomenon, at least the U.S. variant of it. In the United States federal courts, class actions are governed by Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rule. Since 1938, many states have adopted rules similar to the FRCP. However, some states like California have civil procedure systems which deviate significantly from the federal rules; the California Codes provide for four separate types of class actions. As a result, there are two separate treatises devoted solely to the complex topic of California class actions. Some states, such as Virginia, do not provide for any class actions, while others, such as New York, limit the types of claims that may be brought as class actions.
