United States District Court

Northern District of California

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LYLE E GALEENER, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

SOURCE REFRIGERATION & HVAC, 

INC.,

Defendant.

Case No. 13-cv-04960-VC 

ORDER RE PRELIMINARY 

APPROVAL HEARING

The parties are notified of the following:

(1) The Court is tentatively inclined to reject the provision which states that failure to file a 

written objection constitutes a waiver of the right to object orally at the hearing on final 

approval.

(2) The Court assumes that the distribution to each class member contemplated by the 

agreement represents only a partial share of the compensation to which each class 

member would be entitled if the plaintiffs prevailed. If this is correct, the Court is 

tentatively inclined to reject the provision that calls for unclaimed funds to be returned 

to the defendant, rather than being distributed, in a second round of checks, to the class 

members who did claim their original payment by cashing their checks.

The parties should be prepared to address these issues at the preliminary approval hearing.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: March 6, 2015
