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

A California federal district court denied a motion to remand a class action brought under California wage and hour laws by a sales associate against Zale Delaware, Inc., alleging failure to pay for all hours worked, failure to pay minimum wage, and failure to provide required rest and meal breaks, finding that Zale demonstrated by a preponderance of the evidence that the amount in controversy exceeds $5 million, thus satisfying the Class Action Fairness Act jurisdictional requirement.
