Case: Wage & Hour/California Class Actions (N.D. Cal.)

A federal district court granted Home Depot U.S.A., Inc.'s motion to strike class allegations in a wage-and-hour action brought under California’s Unfair Competition Law and Labor Code by two non-exempt employees, including a night shift travel merchandizing execution associate, finding that the employees failed to plead sufficient facts showing that their individual experiences with unpaid work time, missed meal and rest breaks, and unreimbursed business expenses were common to all non-exempt employees in the state, making the proposed class overbroad and not ascertainable.
