Court dockets are full---additional demands will force a trade-off
Debra Lyn Bassett 9, Justice Marshall F. McComb Professor of Law at the Southwestern Law School, “Just Go Away: Representation, Due Process, and Preclusion in Class Actions”, Brigham Young University Law Review, 2009 B.Y.U.L. Rev. 1079, Lexis)
n80. See, e.g., Friedenthal et al., supra note 34, 14.3, at 653 ("The interest of the judicial system in preventing relitigation of the same dispute recognizes that judicial resources are finite and the number of cases that can be heard by the courts is limited. Every dispute that is reheard means that another will be delayed. As modern court dockets are filled to overflowing, this concern is of critical importance. Res judicata thus conserves scarce judicial resources and promotes efficiency in the interest of the public at large.").
