National Coordinating Committee for Multi-District Litigation

The National Coordinating Committee for Multi-District Litigation (NCCMDL) is a group that helps manage legal cases involving similar issues across different jurisdictions in the United States. When multiple lawsuits arise from the same event or situation, such as product liability claims, the NCCMDL coordinates these cases to streamline the process. This organization aims to reduce duplicative efforts, ensure consistency in rulings, and promote efficiency in handling complex litigation. By organizing these cases, the NCCMDL helps courts manage their dockets and encourages fair treatment of all parties involved in multi-district litigation.
