Multidistrict Litigation

What is multidistrict litigation? 

Multidistrict litigation (MDL) is a special procedure under US federal law designed to streamline complex civil litigation involving many people across a large number of federal judicial districts.  

Under the MDL rule, qualifying cases can be consolidated and are overseen by a single judge. 

Whilst the MDL may result in a mass tort settlement, if it doesn’t result in compensation, plaintiffs can still pursue damages through individual lawsuits.
