How have reasons been appealed in a class action?

These reasons deal with two appeals heard at the same time. In Peter v. Medtronic, the representative plaintiffs in a certified class proceeding appeal the order of Perell J. dated September 29, 2009 (reasons issued October 20, 2009), in which he ordered bifurcation of discovery and trial of two common issues relating to quantification of compensation for waiver of tort from other common issues in a certified class proceeding.

In Robinson v. Medtronic, the representative plaintiffs in a class proceeding appeal the order of Perell J. dated October 20, 2009, in which he refused to certify the issue of punitive damages as a common issue, and he ordered bifurcation of discovery and trial of two issues relating to quantification of compensation for waiver of tort.
