UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiffs Timothy Morgret and Todd Moore bring similar class claims against Defendant 

Valley Industrial X-Ray and Inspection Services, Inc., in separate cases of action before this Court: 

Case No. 1:14-cv-01801-JLT and Case No. 1:14-cv-01875-JLT. It appears that the class and collective 

claims raised in the Morgret matter are broader such to encompass those claims raised in the Moore 

matter. Further, the cases involve similar claims and questions of fact. Indeed, both Morgret and 

TIMOTHY MORGRET,

 Plaintiff,

v.

VALLEY INDUSTRIAL X-RAY AND 

INSPECTION SERVICES, INC.,

Defendant.

TODD MOORE,

 Plaintiff,

v.

VALLEY INDUSTRIAL X-RAY AND 

INSPECTION SERVICES, INC.,

Defendant.
