Justice HEARN.

Anthony and Barbara Grazia appeal the circuit court's grant of a motion to strike class allegations from their complaint. The Grazias contend the circuit court erred in finding the Notice and Opportunity to Cure Construction Dwelling Defect Act is in conflict with the State's class action lawsuit jurisprudence under Rule 23, SCRCP. We agree and reverse.
