Description

The document is a Motion to Dismiss Class Action Claims filed in the Circuit Court of Mississippi. It seeks to dismiss the plaintiffs' claims for class certification on the grounds that Mississippi law does not recognize class actions, as noted in historical precedent. The motion specifies that the plaintiffs filed a complaint alleging various causes of action on behalf of themselves and a class, termed 'all others similarly situated,' seeking relief through class action, which is deemed unavailable in the state. The document references a significant Mississippi Supreme Court decision, Marx v. Broom, which reinforces the absence of class action practice in the state court system. It argues that since class action relief is prohibited, the associated claims should be dismissed. Attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants will find this form crucial for understanding the procedural limitations surrounding class actions in Mississippi. Users should ensure they attach relevant exhibits and adhere to formatting guidelines when submitting the motion. This form is particularly useful for legal professionals involved in defending against class action suits or advising clients in jurisdictions where such actions are restricted.
