Dispute Over Bringing Suit Doesn’t Bar Class Certification
At 153:
It is not unusual in class actions for some class members to believe that an action should not be brought. A dispute within the class over whether an action should be pursued does not preclude class certification, as long as the views of the dissenting class members are adequately represented. ... These dissenting class members often have their views adequately represented by the defendants in the action. See: Christman v. Brauvin Realty Advisors, Inc., 191 F.R.D. 142 (N.D.Ill. 1999).
