Nissan Can't Appeal Calif. Engine Defect Design Ruling - Law360 (subscription)
cannot appeal a decision denying its attempt to escape a putative class action over allegedly defective timing chain tensioning systems while the case is pending, saying an interlocutory appeal could prolong the litigation. District Judge Dean D. Pregerson said Nissan should wait until after the case concludes to appeal his April decision finding the automaker should not be freed from the suit because it had authority over the manufacturing of the vehicles at issue.
