P1441 REVIEW DENIED Under Proposition 64 (Business and Professions Code sections 17203, 17204) a representative action for violation of the Unfair Competition Law or False Advertising Law could not be brought by an individual who would not qualify as a named plaintiff in a class action for violation of those laws; slight differences in contracts signed by class members was found insufficient to make individual questions predominate over common questions; repeated unsuccessful efforts to refine a class definition do not necessarily destroy commonality originally found to exist.CitationHARPER v 24 HOUR FITNESS (Standing Misunderstanding) 167 CA4 966 [See: CCP 382; B&PC 17200, 17500; Sav-On v Superior Court 34 C4 319, P/AT 11/04; Lockheed v Superior Court 29 C4 1096, T/AT 4/03]
