Multidistrict Litigation

It is not uncommon for civil actions in different district courts to involve similar allegations and questions of fact. To best reduce the burden on federal district courts and make the litigation process more efficient, these types of civil actions are consolidated and transferred to a single district for pretrial proceedings, although they remain separate cases. This process is called multidistrict litigation. The parties can file a motion to transfer their civil actions to the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation, which will decide whether to transfer the case. If the panel does decide to designate the case to a transferee court, a transferee judge will oversee and coordinate the pretrial proceedings. At every stage of the process, our attorneys can provide strategic counsel and effective plans of action for both plaintiffs and defendants involved in multidistrict litigation matters.
