What is the reason why the federal district court refused to deny a class action?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Workman v. Mitchell, 502 F.2d 1201 (9th Cir. 1974):

This might or might not have been an adequate reason for denying a class action, had the district court thereafter entered a declaratory judgment which would redound to the benefit of the class. See Mead v. Parker, 464 F.2d 1108, 1112 (9th Cir. 1972). But as events turned out, no such declaratory relief was granted and nothing in the amended judgment which was entered overcomes the grievances asserted on behalf of the class.
