UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

The Court held an informal telephonic conference (Doc. 64) at the request of counsel after they 

learned that the data collection efforts identifying the prospective class members and the proper 

number of work weeks associated with each class member was flawed. Counsel have agreed that the 

defendant will retain a third-party IT consultant who will assist in creating the algorithm needed to 

correctly gather the data and to verify the accuracy of the data collected. They agree also that, 

assuming that the number of work weeks at issue remain with the tolerance anticipated in the 

settlement agreement, the prospective class would need to re-noticed1and the final approval and 

fairness hearing continued to an appropriate time. Thus, upon the agreement of counsel, the Court 

ORDERS:

1. The supplemental filing of claims statistics for the final approval motion, currently set 

 

1 Counsel agree also that the re-notice costs will be borne by the defendant.
