1Opinion of the Court

RULAND, Judge.

Defendant, Colorado Department of Social Services and its executive director, Armando Atencio, appeal from a judgment that certified plaintiffs’ suit as a class action pursuant to C.R.C.P. 23, invalidated a Department regulation, ordered retroactive home care allowance benefits to plaintiffs Rodgers and Cloud, and barred the Department from denying plaintiffs and all class members from receiving future home care allowances. Plaintiffs, as representatives of the class, cross-appeal the denial of retroactive benefits for all class members. We affirm in part and reverse in part.
