Listen Later

Private class action lawsuits play a significant role in the vindication and development of U.S. antitrust law. But what are attorneys and courts to do when they know there's an injured class, but are not quite sure who's in it and who's not? Tram Nguyen, Ph.D., an economist and Managing Principal at Edgeworth Economics, joins Alicia Downey and Matt Reynolds to discuss how economic analysis can help overcome issues with ascertaining class membership, particularly in the context of the pharmaceutical industry. Listen to this episode to learn more about not only the "ascertainability" requirement in class action litigation but also Tram's favorite beach destinations.
