Fraud actions that require proof of individual reliance cannot be certified as Fed. R. Civ. P. 23(b)(3) class actions because individual, rather than common, issues will predominate. The district court certified a nationwide Rule 23(b)(3) class in this RICO fraud action based on alleged overcharging of workers compensation insurance premiums.
