Obviously, the citations need to be improved. Also, some case law would be good. I assume that the source would be the usual find law. Colobikeguy 22:05, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Mixed up "or" for an "and"...
Um. The info on permissive joinder (FRCP 20a) isn't 100% accurate. The "or" need be changed to an "and" in the sentence which reads: "permissive joinder allows multiple plaintiffs to join in an action if each of their claims arise from the same transaction or occurrence, or if there is a common question of law or fact relating to all plaintiffs' claims." Courts require *both* (1) claims arise from the same transaction or occurence, and (2) that there is a common question of law or fact. See FRCP 20(a).
