1Opinion of the Court
Justice BEATTY:
This is a direct appeal of a class action suit involving damages arising out of the application of allegedly defective synthetic stucco (Exterior Insulation and Finish System, “EIFS”) to Charles Salmonsen’s residential home and those homeowners similarly situated in the Charleston area. The Court granted Salmonsen’s motion for the appeal to be certified from the Court of Appeals to this Court. The appeal and cross-appeals raise multiple substantive and procedural issues regarding the certification of the class. We dismiss in part, reverse in part, and remand.
