What is a putative class action?
A putative class action is a potential class. It is filed by one or more plaintiffs on behalf of themselves and others who allegedly suffered a common wrong (the putative class). If the court agrees with the plaintiffs(s), it will certify the class, turning the lawsuit into a class action. An example of a putative class action handled by Motley Rice is: AirTran Airways putative class action.
