New study on lawsuits that have resulted in benefits to society as a whole

The Center for Justice & Democracy has a new study, called Lifesavers 2021: CJ&D’s Guide to Lawsuits that Protect Us All. The study describes over 125 lawsuits that have led to major health and safety improvements benefiting large numbers of people, spanning over 50 years. These cases have not only saved lives but also show us how to mitigate some of today’s most dire crises. 

Here is a press release that explains the study.   The PopTort has a comment here. You can download the full study here.
