A class action is a type of litigation developed in the United States and is translated as a representative class action, representative party action, collective action, etc. A class action is a system that allows one or more members of a large group of people with a common interest to pursue a lawsuit as a representative party of all the members, and the resulting judgment is binding on all of them, even if they were not actually involved in the litigation, making it possible to resolve disputes between many people at once.
