A group of fourteen leading civil procedure scholars, including UA’s Prof. Adam Steinman, is urging the Supreme Court to review a lower court’s decision making it more difficult for workers to recover lost wages.
The scholars explained that lower courts have reached inconsistent results following a pair of Supreme Court pleading decisions handed down in 2007 and 2009. Because of the confusion that persists in the lower courts, amici curiae respectfully urge the Court to grant the petition for writ of certiorari to clarify the applicable pleading standard with respect to factual sufficiency.
