Scheffer v. Civil Service Employees Ass’n, Local 828

(1) Are the ideological views of a public-interest legal aid organization that is providing the attorneys for a class action pertinent to the individual counsel's ability to fairly and adequately represent the class? (2) If so, does denial of class-counsel status based upon the funding legal organization's ideological views violate the First Amendment rights of the attorneys and their clients who associate with the organization?
