joint procedure
I think "joint procedure" is a nice translation.
A "procédure collective" means a "joint process" of carrying out some sort of business.
two or more parties are involved
New York City Police Departments collaborating with the San Francisco Police Departments on the same case would constitute an example a "joint procedure".

Sara Freitas
: Likely as this is very topical in the French press these days // Google "class action" + "procedure collective" and you'll find lots of articles...just as they are trying to do away with it in the US there are talks of initiating it in France

: This term refers to a collective court-approved proceeding by creditors. Class action is one of a kind, and all others follow suit, usually in product liability
