IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JUAN SARAVIA, individually and on behalf

of all others similarly situated,

Plaintiff,

 v.

DYNAMEX, INC., DYNAMEX FLEET

SERVICES, LLC, DYNAMEX

OPERATIONS EAST, INC., and DYNAMEX

OPERATIONS WEST, INC.,

Defendants. /

No. C 14-05003 WHA

NOTICE RE COURT’S VIEW

OF DISPUTED TERM

The Court is most disappointed that counsel for Dynamex misinformed the Court on a

provision of the settlement, namely, what would happen to drivers whose checks went

uncashed. The Court is willing to approve, if both sides agree, a codicil that “any driver who

receives a check will be subject to the release, whether or not the driver cashes the check, but in

any subsequent dispute over whether the driver actually received the check, the burden shall be

on Dynamex to prove that the driver received it. Dynamex shall further be entitled to a

presumption, rebuttable upon counter proof, that the driver received the check if Dynamex

shows it was sent to an address provided by the driver as correct.” Further, plaintiffs’ counsel

must contact each driver in the class to double-check on receipt of the check.

The parties shall respond in a joint statement by 2:00 P.M. TOMORROW, JANUARY 4.

Additionally, please make the following edits:

• On page 1, delete the period before (the “Settlement”) at the

end of the second paragraph below the line.

• On pages 2 and 6, add a comma between “excluding Court

holidays” and “at the following address:”

• In the prior draft, the proposed notice referred to the

“Dynamex Settlement.” The current draft refers to the

“Dynamex Settlement” in some parts and the “Saravia

Settlement Administrator” in others. Please use consistent

terminology throughout. (“Dynamex Settlement”/

“Dynamex Settlement Administrator” is preferable.)

• On page 8, there appear to be spaces between the @ and the

domain name in Attorney Konecky’s and Attorney Piller’s

email addresses. Please remove those spaces.

• On page 8, in the second full paragraph, “Parties” is

capitalized. On page 9, in the first full paragraph “parties’”

is not. Please use consistent capitalization. (Lowercase is

preferred.)

IT IS SO ORDERED.
