The arc of employment discrimination class action law is bending away from justice. As a result, plaintiffs’ lawyers frequently have to self-censor, generally in the opening complaint or the class certification motion, or as we did in Simpson at the 23(f) stage. Maximizing the chances for certification may require defining the class or multiple small classes so as to eliminate potential class members, claims, or forms of relief. Unfortunately, this type of self-censorship deprives employees of the possibility of obtaining the types of broad reforms that we were once able to achieve and hopefully can again pursue in the future as the law evolves.
