...rules governing class actions have recently been adopted in the federal court system; under these rules all the potential claimants in a class action are bound by the results unless they make a timely request not to be included. Courts therefore take careful precautions to be sure that the individual in the case will adequately represent the general cause and that his interests clearly parallel those of the entire class.
