On June 25, 2021, the Supreme Court decided TransUnion LLC v. Ramirez, holding in a 5-4 decision that the vast majority of class members lacked a “concrete” injury and, thus, they did not have standing to assert their Fair Credit Reporting Act claims in federal court. The decision makes a number of broad pronouncements about the requirements of standing, “risk of harm,” informational injuries, and how standing must be proven in class actions, which will affect federal court litigation in individual and class actions across a wide variety of subject matters for years to come.

Now that the Court has issued its opinion, please join us for a webinar to discuss the ramifications and key holdings of the decision.
