D.V.D. v. U.S. Dep't Of Homeland Sec.
...Guidance is sufficient, PI Opp. at 8, recognizes that it is possible to establish a baseline for all putative class members. The Court does not find that the claims here “hinge on the individual circumstances of each class member.”
Reid, 17 F.4th at 11. Rather, Defendants have a broad position, subject to class-wide challenge. In sum, Plaintiffs challenge a policy or practice that impacts all putative class members: failing to provide meaningful notice and opportunity to present a...
