In Ousmane v. City of New York, 7 Misc 3d 1016[A], 2005 NY Slip Op 50634[U] [Sup Ct, NY County 2005] the court approved class certification for street vendors who challenged the promulgation of an increased penalty schedule for violations of rules regulating the sale of food and merchandise in public spaces. Class certification was warranted because the proposed class was limited and well defined and the City could easily identify the vendors and the amounts that they were seeking to be reimbursed and "provide the relief necessary with minimal administrative burden" (7 Misc 3d 1016[A], 2005 NY Slip Op 50634[U], at 12, 801 NYS2d 238). The court noted that it might be particularly difficult for the individual vendors, many of whom were indigent and many of whom were recent immigrants, to obtain individual relief. (Id.)
