How to Defend Assertions for Medical Monitoring Damages: An Analysis of the Commonality Requirement
11/18/2004
Medical monitoring is a nontraditional tort that has developed to compensate plaintiffs who allege exposure to various toxic substances.  Obtaining class certification for a medical monitoring class is a fairly heavy burden for plaintiffs, and one major reason is the commonality requirement.  This presentation expands on the article of the same name, by explaining the “commonality” requirement for a class action claim, and offering an analysis of how this prerequisite can be used to defend against class action law suits for medical monitoring claims.
