P1442 REVIEW DENIED A federal court decision, rendered prior to the passage of Proposition 64, denying certification of a class consisting of specified California residents in an action under California's Unfair Competition Law on the ground that a named plaintiff who had not suffered injury was not sufficiently interested to vigorously represent the class did not resolve an issue identical to one that arose in a similar action filed after the passage of Proposition 64, because of the change it made in standing requirements, so collateral estoppel did not prevent consideration of the question in the second action.CitationJOHNSON v GLAXOSMITHKLINE (Paxil Class) 166 CA4 1497 [See: B&PC 17200; Mycogen v Monsanto 28 C4 888, P/AT 9/02; Alvarez v May 143 CA4 1223, P/AT 11/06; In re Paxil Litigation 212 FRD 539, 218 FRD 242]
