Class actions are lawsuits brought by a representative member(s) of a large group of persons on behalf of all the members of the group who have suffered identical or similar harm for which the same defendant may be liable -- such as a defective product class action against a manufacturer or an employment discrimination class action against a large company.
Gambier is a village in Knox County, Ohio, United States. The population was 1,871 at the 2000 census. Gambier is the home of Kenyon College and was named after one of Kenyon College's early benefactors, Lord Gambier. A major feature is a gravel path running the length of the town, fondly referred to as "Middle Path". This path has become a piece of Gambier's history, as it is used by college students and residents alike as a way through town.
