The Twelfth District Court of Appeals for the State of Ohio recently overturned the Preble County Court of Common Pleas’ decision to certify a class in a highly disputed case pertaining to the water supply for the Village of Camden. The appellate court ruled that the trial court abused its discretion when it certified a class comprised of everyone who resided in Camden for the period of time of August 1, 2010, to present in connection with claims against the alleged defilers of the Camden water supply.
