Existing law provides that an appeal is to the court of appeal, other than in a limited civil case, and specifies certain judgments and orders from which an appeal may be taken. This bill would require the appellant, upon filing a notice of appeal, to state if the appeal is from a lower court's approval of a class action settlement. If so, then the appeal shall be entitled to expedited briefing and preference in setting the date for oral argument within 120 days after the notice of appeal has been filed.
