摘要

No matter what your political persuasion, no one can accuse President Bush of backing off or slowing down now that he has been re-elected. The debris from the inaugural parade and the many inaugural balls had barely been swept away before the administration began pushing its second term agenda. Many of these programs, such as Social Security reform, tax reform, and amending the Clean Air Act, will have an effect on rebuilders and all those in the vehicle aftermarket. One Bush initiative, reform of the class action litigation rules, has already been passed. For many years, large and small corporations alike have complained that the loose rules under which plaintms may band together to bring large suits are not fair and only seem to create opportunities for creative-minded lawyers. In particular, businesses have claimed that state courts with their less-restrictive rules often allow greater leeway to groups of plaintiffs seeking redress for alleged negligence and/or fraud. Moreover, because state laws differ widely in many substantive areas, the result of a case might depend upon where it is brought. This often leads to forum shopping by attorneys looking for the best law and the most sympathetic judge (Unstated by the law's proponents, but clearly a motivating factor, is that lawyers are attracted to the big paydays even a moderately successful class action generates. If lawyers are forced to represent only individuals or small groups of claimants, the monetary rewards will not be as great and the incentive to bring such suits will be curtailed.).
