# Class Action Lawsuits

## Class actions and Georgian group protection

The class action, as a concept, comes from United States law: there, a single representative stands for thousands of injured consumers in one case. Georgian law knows no such procedural form — but the Law of Georgia on Protection of Consumer Rights creates functional analogues: the participation of non-commercial legal persons where the rights of a group of consumers are violated, the right to apply to the Agency or the sector regulator, and the voidness of unfair standard terms. This page explains what can be done for group interests under Articles 22, 28, 35 and 37 of that law.
