Thus, the PCR Caucasian database contains only 145 individuals”). Second, the trial court found that the underlying databases were reliable. In light of that finding, questions regarding the size of a database go to the weight of the evidence, not its admissibility. See People v. Adams, 195 Mich.App. 267, 489 N.W.2d 192, 198 (1992) (<HOLDING>), modified in part on other grounds, 441 Mich.

Question: UCL and CLRA. In considering whether the plaintiff in Bruno had standing to bring claims arising from the defendants’ gelcap product, when the plaintiff had only purchased the defendants’ liquid product, the court noted that “treatises and the vast majority of persuasive authority indicate that ... the issue of whether a class representative may be allowed to present claims on behalf of others who have similar, but not identical, interests depends not on standing, but on an assessment of typicality and adequacy of representation.” Id. at 530 (citing Greenwood v. Compucredit Corp., No. 4:08-cv-04878, 2010 WL 4807095, at *3 (N.D.Cal. Nov. 19, 2010); Arevalo v. Bank of Am. Corp., 850 F.Supp.2d 1008, 1017 (N.D.Cal.2011); Fallick v. Nationwide Mut. Ins.

Question: are not relevant to our analysis. See Utah Code Ann. § 30-3-5(8)(a)(iv)-(vii) (Supp.2007). 2 . Petitioner also argues, based upon certain language used by the district court, that the increases in alimony were actually intended to be child support for those children who had reached majority, but who were still living with Respondent. It is well settled that a parent's child support obligation terminates when a child reaches majority, and alimony is not a substitute for child support. See Utah Code Ann. §§ 78B-12-102(6), -105(1) (2008).
