Rich Clary Speaks on Panel at Vanderbilt Law School’s 2019 International Class Actions Conference

On August 23, 2019, Cravath partner Richard W. Clary participated in Vanderbilt Law School’s “International Class Actions Conference.” Rich spoke on the “Judges and Practitioners Panel,” during which he discussed the derivations of the U.S. model of using private individuals and entities as lead plaintiffs in class actions, and the tradeoffs of that model versus the developing international approach of using qualified not‑for‑profit entities, such as NGOs, as the lead plaintiff.
