[PROPOSED] JANUARY 20, 2015 CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE ORDER FOR DEFENDANT TO 

PRODUCE EMAIL ADDRESSES

Lead case Guilbaud, et al. v. Sprint, 3:13-CV-04357-VC consolidated with Smith, et al. v. Sprint, 3:14-CV-02642-VC

On January 20, 2015, at 10:00 a.m., this matter came on for a Case Management 

Conference in Courtroom 4 before Judge Vince Chhabria. 

In preparation for the CMC, the Parties filed a Joint Case Management Conference 

Statement (“the CMC Statement”) on January 13, 2015. (Guilbaud Dkt. No. 121.) In the CMC 

Statement, Plaintiffs alerted the Court to the fact that Defendant had not produced personal email 

addresses of putative collective members pursuant to the Court’s October 3, 2014 and November 

21, 2014 Orders, granting Plaintiffs’ motion for conditional certification pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 

216(b) of the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”), nor had Defendant produced work email 

addresses for 69 of the putative collective members. The Court’s October 3, 2014 order (“the 

Order”) provides: “. . . the Court finds that names, last known mailing addresses, and email 

addresses will be sufficient. Sprint must provide this information for all current and former 

hourly-paid sales staff who worked at a Sprint retail store at any time during the three-year 

collective period. If Sprint possesses both personal and work email addresses for potential 

collective members, it should provide both.” Defendant did not produce any personal email 

addresses. Defendant contended to Plaintiffs that Defendant’s PeopleSoft HRIS database, which 

is its system of record for employee contact information from which it collected the names, 

contact information and work email addresses for putative class members as required by the 

Court’s order, does not include employees’ personal email addresses, and that a search for 

personal email addresses would require a manual search of employees’ personnel files. As a 

result, Defendant only provided Sprint-related work emails – many of which are for former 

employees. The Parties disputed whether the Order required Defendant to manually search for 

personal email addresses in this manner. Additionally, Defendant did not produce any email

addresses for 69 potential collective members, claiming that none of these individuals are current 

employees and as a result Sprint has no valid email addresses for them.

[PROPOSED] JANUARY 20, 2015 CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE ORDER FOR DEFENDANT TO 

PRODUCE EMAIL ADDRESSES

Lead case Guilbaud, et al. v. Sprint, 3:13-CV-04357-VC consolidated with Smith, et al. v. Sprint, 3:14-CV-02642-VC

Having considered the issue as raised in the CMC Statement, and as further discussed by 

counsel and the Court at the Case Management Conference, THE COURT HEREBY FINDS 

AND ORDERS:

Sprint must review its personnel files and provide Plaintiffs with personal email addresses

contained therein, to the extent it has them, for the 69 potential collective members for whom it 

failed to produce any email addresses. Sprint must produce any such personal email addresses it 

finds pursuant to that review no later than 14 days following the date of entry and filing of this 

Order by the Court. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
