The litigants of one party involving many people in a joinder may name a representative to handle the litigation. 当事人一方人数众多的共同诉讼，可以由当事人推选代表人进行诉讼。
Joinder means consolidating more than two persons into one lawsuit for the purpose of solving the disputes and therefore is also called consolidation of parties. 共同诉讼是指将两个以上的当事人合并到一个诉讼中进行审理，因而又可以称为当事人的合并。
