• Art.: Actions

Text

(1) A court of appeals may, in
its discretion, permit an interlocutory appeal of a district court's order that grants
or denies class action certification under court rule so long as application is made
to the court of appeals within fourteen days after entry of the district court's order.

(2) An appeal that is allowed under subsection (1) of this section shall not
stay proceedings in the district court unless the district court or the court of
appeals so orders. If a stay is ordered, all discovery and other proceedings shall be
stayed during the pendency of an appeal taken pursuant to this section unless the
court ordering the stay finds upon the motion of any party that specific discovery is
necessary to preserve evidence or to prevent undue prejudice to such party.
