very generally:Plaintiff retains lawyers and files a case. Defendants try to have the case thrown out on legal grounds. If case survives, discovery (documents, depositions, etc) starts. Plaintiff moves to "certify the class." If plaintiff wins, case continues (or defendants appeal certification). If not, plaintiff appeals or walks away. Discovery continues. Defendants file papers to have the judge throw out the case on the law and facts. If plaintiff wins, case heads to trial. If not, plaintiff appeals or walks away. Trial by jury (or judge). Losing side appeals. A settlement may or may not occur at any time. From start to finish, on average, 3-5 years.Hope this helps.
