- Abstract
The United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation is one of a small number of special judicial bodies. The MDL Panel is a powerful judicial institution; for all practical purposes, it controls where many of the most far-reaching private civil actions will be resolved. The significance of the MDL Panel's work underscores the value of knowing more about the judges who exercise such substantial authority.
