Di Lauro v. City of Burbank (B334408)
The case raises the issue of whether class actions are permissible for California Public Records Act claims. CSAC’s amicus brief argues why class actions are not available for CPRA cases, noting that the statute’s intent precludes class actions, and that allowing class actions undermines the requirement to resolve CPRA disputes quickly, while providing no corresponding benefit to the public. The brief was prepared by Holly Whatley at Colantuono, Highsmith & Whatley in Pasadena.
