Steinmetz et al. v. Brinker International, Inc.

Issue

Whether Federal Rule 23 (which dictates when a class can be certified, what type of notice is required to class members if certified, and what procedures and processes must be adhered to with regard to class certification) permits a damages class to be certified where there is no evidence the vast majority of putative class members suffered either an actual or imminent risk of injury, and individual issues of standing and damages otherwise predominate.
