Opinion
April 12, 2005.
Petition for Allowance of Appeal Nos. 598 599 WAL 2004 from the Superior Court.
ORDER
AND NOW, this 12th day of April 2005, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal in the above captioned matter is GRANTED, limited to the following issues:
Whether, and to what extent, the doctrine of res judicata bars respondents from bringing suit in Pennsylvania under the instant circumstances?
Even assuming that res judicata bars respondents' underlying causes of action, whether the notice of class action settlement received by respondents was constitutionally adequate to fix respondents' rights in light of their decision not to opt out of the out-of-state class action suit?
